I get the impression that swapshop is more about quantity of members rather than quality That should clear things up and explain why they haven't banned me yet

Came fully loaded init, wi geniune front marnt cooler and big vf22 turbo running 500bhp, sweet! I can run more on mi fully closed up wrc block! But doin 60 in 2 seconds flat is enuf fo me at the mo.


The bit I love the most is the genuine aftermarket baseball cap fitment system. Just get in and the cap is fully loaded, at an angle ont drivers head init!

£100 for a set of 2 pot front's and 1 pot rears.

Not sure what's worse, the price or the fact that people are willing to pay it.

You would think so wouldn't you but no he banned me because I posted this in my own group with the comment "Blockage in the dipstick? It's a 2.5 so it probably has no oil left and somehow survived the 6000 miles "



Very very petty and then he refused to explain why I had been removed from his poxy group

The guy is not right in the head at all! The term sociopath comes to mind. It probably makes him feel all manly with all that power (Ste Downes the owner that is) That guy above is unfortunately just one of the many of complete village idiots on SSS!

Wonder why I've not been banned yet?

Anyhow, you're a very naughty boy, Paul. Accept your punishment and wield your own ban hammer.
