yes mate was a cracking time for motorsport, I remember seeing the volvo T5 850 estate in its 1st outing @ thruxton I believe with rickard rydell behind the wheel,it was a huge P.R stunt by volvo which angered many drivers as they didn't want to compete against an estate.
it looked very impressive with the livery

thank you mate....believe it or not my wisdom tooth has kicked off so I’ve been sleeping due to the amount of painkillers I’ve been taking. I have a week of work anyway and my tooth kicked off, my face is like a rugby ball but I’ve still been getting out with my son. 👍

i feel your pain mate, ive just had a tooth extracted,1 in from the back top row,it broke just before covid hit us so i had a temp filling over it and it was fine but then infection kept getting in and due to my roots growing into my sinus cavity my regular dentist wouldnt touch it, i was referred to a practice in leicester but when i got there they said i was too heavy for their chair (max 22 stone,most kids weight that these days lol) so i was put on a waiting list for the hospital............14 month waiting time so i thought **** it and went private, he had to drill up into the tooth and split it into 3 then perform the extraction, luckily its all healed and sorted now but the pain was horrific for most of this year and back end of last year, literally lived on pain killers.****er charged me Ł300 for 12 minutes work though lol, to be fair i was in that much pain i would have let him roger me with no lube if it meant he could get my tooth out

I loved them all back then mate. By mine in the 90’s we had LOTS of boy racers and I’d stop and stare at them all. Cav gsi, cav sri, 2 red Astra gsi, Astra gte, golf gti, corsa gti, xr3i, rs turbo, etc....there was a whole bunch of them knocking around. It was a lot better back then but I’m not sure why....never seen a lotus Carlton though, beautiful machines

Hi all, took my car to a “cars and coffee” meet in deeside this morning. It was held by a company called “revitupuk” and they have a great selection of cars for sale. Took my son to see some nice cars and although this short video doesn’t show much it became packed as time went by, hopefully they will post another video up. You will see my car a minute or 2 in 👍

i always thought revitupuk was one of those companies that kept changing its name, i remember seeing them on ebay and their adverts and cars were very very similar to another company who once started to get bad reviews seemed to vanish.......

could be wrong though

im not sure to be honest shrek as I’ve not followed them for that long but they have a massive following and there’s always a couple of people who are constantly criticising them. 98% of followers love them and the cars they get in stock are fantastic 👍

It's funny you think there will be a police chase.

Most likely the police will have the power to override your car and tell it to stop.

Even worse car thief's will just drive by your car hack into it, pull it over and hi Jack it off you. It will basically be a computer on wheels.

Here is a video I did with a friend of mine on his 05 STI Spec C fully swapped GC8.

This guy has a number of interesting, slightly modified cars (205, Sierra CS etc.).
