Why are your kids playing in the street? Isn't that somewhat dangerous? The garden or the park are far safer. Dual carriageways are particularly inappropiate play areas.

Sb, please excuse me for rising to your bait, you are so good at it, you are the master baiter so I hear.

You'll get no argument from me Fire up pics of the saab - I assume its blown? Get it chipped/remaped and you'll win the rematch.

I will see what I can do, just preparing a todays blog, see NSR for details.

Sb,

Didnt actually think I had a photo of it, not sure if something quite that dull shows up but I found the one from the Autotrader when I bought it.

Enjoy,

Please please please put a decent set of wheels on it...Your letting down the saab appreciation side of Snet...!!!

LG John

Sod the wheels, get the engine modded to f*ck and then it'll be a total sleeper. With an aero or the likes people expect it to be half decent but that looks bog basic from the outside. I often had wet dreams of supercharging my 406 V6 for that reason as passing M3s in a £2k pug barge would have its entertainment merits.

There's always one loon. "Think of the children" on a 70 limit where I presume it's a pedestrian free zone. Simpson character sums it up perfectly, nagging interfering windbags.

If it was up to these people we'd sit on bean bags all day watching end to end Blue Peter programmes, eating liquified vitamin meals and wearing bubblewrap clothing.

How else do you get through the day

where in the origional post does it say anything about a dual carrigeway just says on the way to b+q ok he was on a fast road so not a problem and if i missjudjed the situation then sorry.unfortuanatly the street i live on(in the middle of a large housing estate) is about half a mile long not very wide and double parked most off the way and i see and hear saxos and novas and the like flat out past my home (i live in the middle so there probably doing about 50-70)and it makes my blood boil to think of what is probably going to happen. apoligy over.

scoobynutta555

By the same token where does it say in the original post there were kids about and in a built up area. You're the one who was jumping to conclusions.

THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!?

Hang on.....wasn't I driving along the other day when a toddler ran out into the road because her ******* stupid, dimwitted, should-have-a-license-to-breed parents were too busy chatting to keep an eye on their child?

It's not the kids fault, it's the parents.

I used to play on the street when I was younger and there wasn't that many cars about....now it's a different story.....
So how about this........stop your feckin kids playing on the streets.....teach them how to cross a road........try to bring them up with common sense and get on with it

I took my kids to school this morning and some tool in a Pug 306 XSI came hairing down the side road that allowsa access to the school gates, probably about 40 in a 30 which in reality at that time of day should be a crawl, so as to not alert the kids he got a silent gesture, as I said a time and a place, nice on you Struv for reassesing your comments, we all need challenging occasionaly about our behaviour to make us think, me I mean as something that can seem ok at the time maybe isnt, this time perhaps it was.

I am not modding it externally, under no illusions its an aging cheap Saab that has one trick, i.e. being quick enough to trouble some of the modern hot hatches, a chip may be in order but I might be changing job so it will be a Fabia VRs as I will be doing a longer journey and will need better that 28 mpg, also not sure whethre the rest of the drivetrain would cope, plus those skinny tyres will just vapourise in seconds with 225 bhp.

I also think that when you see a bloke in a rep mobile that has been modded it is perhaps the saddest cry for help on the planet, Vectra's with Motorsport stickers and Lexus lights, it doesnt make it look better, it makes it look worse and draws attention to it.

Come on Jacko,set of 17" viggen alloys and an Elk parts chip...Yours for under a £1000...Probably...!!!

Take them off if you ever come to sell it,then sell them on,you will hardly lose a penny!!!

Im not talking you into this am i???

Yep, sounds nice, the Viggen wheels are lovely, however spending a grand on it isnt really an option as we need several things for the house that take precedence over cars and car parts, hence why I am driving it in the first place !

700 quid went on a bloody washing machine the other week, the dog has cost 45 quid so far this week, tutor for the kids, the list goes on and on and on.

Well i was in Struv,s street today doing wheelies in my nova and running over kids and old people,f,kin brilliant ,whos coming tomorrow?

Bit late arent you, Struv kind of softened his line a little having re read the posts, his point was valid about being a **** in a car when kids are about though.

Its never too late to laugh at people on the internet

Another convert to a Fabia vRS

I appreciate some of the comments about ********* doing excessive speeds near schools - our local primary school now has a part-time 20 mph limit outside. It doesn't seem to work Why don't the local Feds take a scamera van there, instead of doing people for 80mph on the bypass

And where the outlaws stay in Inverness is a wide, flat, straight road through the middle of a housing scheme. It has a 20 mph limit (not mandatory - a "20's plenty" one). On Friday and Saturday nights it sounds like the feckin pit straight at Knockhill
