In fairness there was only one really and he's an organ donor hence the passes comment. Those will be the passes will lots of twistys he has to slow down for...

I was more impressed that you managed to out a couple of potential petrolheads smile

Seriously though - What did you expect? You can't say that you didn't expect a bit of controversy posting on there.

Stop being so sensible. I have to vent. And yes, it was good to find a few more sensible people on there smile

There will always be jealous people of someone doing well for themselves with nice cars. A lot of them do appear to be on EF, I think you should have said you had a pre order on the new Nissan Leaf or something and then they might have answered you sensibly.

Anyway a Ferrari over a Lamborghini like WTF laugh

Would love to help out, but I didn't win the lottery this week-end. Honestly, I would prefer the new MP4 12C if I could afford it smile

I think in reality you have just once more confirmed that any serious car discussion there will either be killed or become a discussion of taking the 16M vs SBB. I remember when EBB posted about buying the Porker and it turned in to a farce.

Good luck with the GTO. Stunning !

Not as bad as when I posted that I had been doing 270 on the German Auobahn and apologised for not doing 300!

May be we should try starting a thread on there similar to the infamous 'glue not poo' one that some of us started a few years back on another forum (about not allowing un-taxed horses on the road)! That was a LOT of fun.

I fear you may need to be more creative in your trolling: the cost of running a horse here appears to be as bad as running a supercar. As such it is probably frowned upon as an ouvert symbol of bourgoise excess.

Could I suggest a treatise on "Why fur isn't murder"?

And don't forget the co2 emissions coming from the horse's exhaust. Someone will probably just suggest to use mobility.
