The offer's still open, Phil. Assuming you make the right choice

 

Thanks Andy..

I'm going over to keighly car trade centre on Saturday to see what they've got, but dont know much about the dealer really

Phil

 

I would be very carefull with the Keighly Car Trade Centre, heard a lot of bad reports about the place.

 

FWIW I'll second that - no personal exprience of them but it might be a good idea to do a search first...

 

I've been to the previously mentioned dealer a couple of times. The second time was to convince myself I was being too hard on them after the first visit. Needless to say after being there a second time things were exactly as my mind remembered!!

Phil - PM me if you want to know exactly what I think!

Just thinking - another option would be to spend peanuts on a deisel whilst we have what is supposed to be the worst winter for 100 years then in the spring, with the money you will have saved buy something then. In the mean time go test drive as many cars as you can!!!

Saying that, I was going to do this and look what I ended up doing! Massive power, rear wheel drive and 265/35/18 rear wheels make for a fun drive on grease, ice, snow etc!!

I'll get my coat!

Martyn - shock, horror.... Your new beast looked pretty clean when I spotted it the other day.... S'pose the colour helps though...

 

If you go the cheap diesel route, I think Dazza still has his Clio for sale. £5k and 70mpg £100 insurance

We are all daft driving Scoobs and the like aren't we

 

Just been pricing up contract hire on E-Class diesel estates.... Cheaper than my monthly fuel bill - argh!!!!

 

Clio's gone.

 

Test drove the WR1 at Goldens the other day..

Lovelly drive... I was surpirsed that overall power increase (60+) didn't feel so dramatic..

Comes down to delivery I think. Mines more 'Turbo' (if you know what I mean). Peakier maybe, delivered in a lump. Whereas the WR1 felt smoother and more driveable across the range.. 5th gear torque for a 2 litre was impressive. I was also surprised at the handling, not as harsh as I thought.. overall a nice dynamic package.. I'll have to a back to back with an M3 again as a quick 10 minute in the cabriolet was a little short (as was the WR1, but better than nothing).. Possibly a M3 coupe this time..

As for a test drive in a RS4? Apparently the Audi group hasn't got one for sale anywhere.. what does this say about ownership?

As for the Hi Fi.. going to audition a complete Quad 99 CDP & pre-power combo tomorow..

 

Tasty....

PS. What's a WR1?

PS, what's a Quad 99 CDP & pre-power combo?

And why have you stopped speaking English?

 

An aural feast.....

 

Oral whatammajig?

Whatever, I'm in...

Oral? Again, the Chairman has to come first **cough** in such club matters. Please form an orderly queue.

As for the aural feast, I may not be able to make tomorrow .. but I'm pretty excited nontheless.... I know, simple things.. etc.. But Chris & Dave know..

Now, back to my oral surfing.. Sorry, Aural surfing...

 

Harry boy

Yeah mate, it is keeping clean at the moment, but dont worry I'm sure teh novelty will wear off very quickly!!!

 

Yup - spotted some dust on your valve caps mate........

 

WARNING - WYIOC Standard Thread Deterioration Alert........

 

Katrina assures us we won't be waiting long

 

HB

Due to the weather deterioration over the past couple of days, the bloody thing is filthy again!!!

Cheers

PS - not getting involved in any discussions regarding 'oral'

 

See Martyn mate - it starts with the valve caps, then gets worse from there on....

PS. I agree about the toothbrush comments...

 

lol

 

... err.. .... then again, when I think about it..



It's how you use it that counts.. and I must say that Katrina says, that Helen says (stay with me here) that you've got some practicing to do!!

Touche

 

Meanwhile, back on topic....

 

well, I can only imagine what people think of us if they dont know us after reading these threads!

 

Oh goody, more practise. I'll get the chocolate spread

 

Not THAT sort of Topic Dave......

Marathon, Bounty, Snickers, Mars, Turkish Delight, Spangles....

Not forgetting Golden Wonder....

See, we can be clean & wholesome when we need to....

Now all it needs is Apple to pop in with a smutty interpretation.

 

WTF's a Marathon? Old git.

I remember Spangles though.


...and what about Mint Cracknell. Is it true it was taken off sale 'cos folk used to keep choking on it? I can remember the odd scary moment meself.

...meanwhile, back on topic...
