Not quite sure where you want to drive this 600 BHP car capable of matching the 240mph top speed of this Swedish car

If all else fails to satisfy you could always shove a rocket up her ****( LOL )

Oh come on DrunkenPikie, Nacro or Mycroft, whatever you call yourself this week, have we not established that no good comes of relentless trolling.

Nah I was totally pissed when I posted the Thread

I've already decided on the car....and it will be amazingly similar to Bob Rawles. Just on the look out for a good one at the moment

My wife drives like a total loon..... and wants a much faster car - I think I mentioned that she wants the power of a highly modded car without the Chav/Kev boy racer/everyones got one of these cars type thing - apparently I'm outgrowing it!! (getting too fat more like) and theres not so much out there - that is inherently practical - very fast and practical just dont go together!

R19KET - Nah it would be closer to 650bhp at Well Lane!!

One of my friends owned a very fast Porsche Turbo which had been extensively modified and this did over 200mph stated - but of course it depends how much the thing speedo overstated..............

lol@j4cko thinking I am/was Mycroft. As I remember he had an entirely different take on abusing and annoying than I ever have.

As for no good coming of trolling (as you put it) so far I've entertained myself royally, surely the whole point of being on a BBS?

Anyway in this case I'm 100% correct, troll or no.

How can it be amazingly similar to Bob Rawles, unless its the same model? In which case why not say you are buying a GT2?

Ok - I'll give you that - but it wont be black!

GT3 also looking at - but a bit slow..... same price brand new as a second hand gt2 (one with low miles about 3 years old) - but then the gt3 is a lot, lot safer to drive and the insurance premiums are a bit lower at least

It has to be black!!! In black it looks like the devils spawn. Saw one today on the A13, stunning.

From what I have heard - Make sure the GT2 HASN'T got the ceramic brakes, unless you like large bills when they need replaced (which can be sooner than you think).

I think some peeps change the ceramics over to steel jobbies. Works out cheaper when they need to be replaced
