Well explain? Make sure you aren't missing the point numpty
ok - you said "Yes there are some out there who would Kev a car up to do other wonderous things and I respect them for that but that just isn't me" - you say it's not you, but all you've done is buy a car that's been Kevved up already for you in the WR1. Hence the irony.

That a little clearer?

Did I say that? Do you often hear noises in your head? I can prescribe something for that if you want some help/advice.

Probably not a good idea to take advice from someone who bought a Wr1 is it?

scoobynutta555, you're confusing me. First you say things like:

208 versus 276, thats boIIocks is it?
and:

Then you say:

When the P1s came out, they werent compared to std uk cars, but against the best that was around at the time, ie sti5typeR.
You started off by comparing the P1 against the standard car, and drew the conclusion that the P1 was hugely better. But then you say the WR1 should not be compared to the standard in car in the same way.

Why? How does that give a fair comparison of the advances the Prodrive-version has over the standard UK car?

I think you're clutching at straws on this one mate...

I'm still bewildered as to why the WR1 is getting so much stick? Some of the most 'respective', yes I do use this term loosely, members have expressed positive opinions about the car. In fact I can't remember one negative post about the performance of the car from someone who has driven it or come across one on the road/ track? I can only think of Hawkeye, off hand, who has any experience of the car (out of the persistent jivers/ trolls).
Is it the car, the owners or both! you lot have the beef about, or should I say sausage now?.
Or are you lot just a little board?, sexually frustrated, maybe, a little? Or is it just playground syndrome, pick on the new guy/ car lol

No you started off the whole p1 vs standard thing. And I said IF i was after a new car Id compare the wr1 against a type25.

Really dont understand the points you are trying to make quoting from different posts i have made and not using them in context.

I have never compared new shape std cars with anything higher up the food chain as im not into new shape cars.

I take it i'm a persistent jiver, mind you when i look in the mirror sometimes SHREK does come to mind

the wr1 is a great car but people taken things sssooooooo personal.

and the "rutting like a pig" thing will stick but not to the WR1 as that don't rut like a normal pig.

More like "snuffles the truffles like a demented hog"

an yes I am board and thoroughly enjoy a lively mass-debate
