And this time thinking a Sports Racer would do me very nicely for the odd burger run and Bolocs day out...

So, anyone know of a good red Sport Racer out there or thinking of selling one??

Cheers

Oh and Gooby... no will not put a wing on it and can't buy a blue one... would clash wink

Hey buddy, damn right you cant have a blue and white one, the SR designer copied me and didnt do a good enough job.
Go buy yourself one of those "common as mud" red and white ones.

Prediction
Speedo's buys a peachy elise, mods the hell out of it and it is the best on the road,
10 mins later sells it and gets a supercharged 'zige and a spare part kit from a 747 400 in a BAAAAD colour!

God, I love this man!

Shouldnt you be on a boat off somalia with a M16 and a bucket of cold beers and a crate of marlbros!

Why on earth would anyone want to use a M16 on a boat ? I can see the beers and Marlbro's working though

isn't a M16 made by Noble?... I can't imagine that being much use against Pirates...

funnily enough, i've been wanting to scratch the Lotus itch again... i have a mate who is trying to offload a S2 135 Sport (02' plate with 25k miles and flsh)... i just need him to take the Tiv in chop...

alternatively... if i can persuade JB to go halves, i quite like the idea of a 'rari 348 as it's shiny and red and stuff...

hmmm... it's that time of the year again when i play muscial cars!

I see it, but I don't believe it. He's gone soft in the head with all that time at sea!

Yeah, going soft, need something sensible for when I'm not driving the 360 or RUF... wink

No I miss the sheer fun of a Lotus of simple blatting about and being able to leave it parked without worrying!

So please keep your eyes open for a nice spec 111R that's going for sensible money... must be a bright colour though!
