its not the fact of not wanting another or not being able to buy one carl, its the fact of my insurance going through the roof, i have one fault claim from last year as well. i will not pay over 1k for insurance out of principle, i will have to wait at least 3-5 years until i can get another performance car

I think you'll just have to see how much your insurance goes up - honestly you'll miss it though.

everytime some d**k in a fast car pees all over me i think god i wish i had my Scoob.

True there used to be this guy around where i live and he was the most aggressive t**t in a car you'd ever seen, he had an M3 cab and took great delight in burning me off - i swear he used to laugh at me.

anyway after i had my Scoob remapped i bumped into him one morning, he absolutely hammered it up this bypass and i swear i was right up behind him, he just couldn't shake me, we got to a roundabout and i overtook him and gave him a wave - admittedly this was rush hour so yeah ok a bit stoopid, but bloody great.

i saw him in my local across the bar that weekend, i gave him a wink and a bit of a nod you shoudl have seen his face.

worth every penny moments like that

i fancy a NOBLE
its the big 40 this year and i'm having a mid life crisis

911's are silly money, can't find anything attractive less than 50k, would love a 911GT3 RS
or 911turbo

M3 csl
great car, go to the nurburgring or trackdays and see what they are really capable of,
they will prove, (if you can drive them properly) that 4wd is just a drain on bhp!!

i wanted to buy a M3 E36 model and strip it out as a trackcar before i bought the scoopapoo, i know if i had i wouldn't be fookin about with turbo's now

i've had a couple and thought they were great, not got the revs of a petrol car, so driving them fast takes some getting used too, but the torque is great
