Hello peeps,
I know you won't want to be seen buying the magazine http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif, but check it out in WHSmiths. I will see those that are going at the Nurburgring... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Best regards Mike R |
Hey mike, dont shout to loud, someone might hear you. Personally, I would rather have my car on the front of Womans Weekly rather than Performance Ford.
;-) |
Mike what are they saying about it? "The Most Ureliable Cossy in the world?" http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif LOL
Mike I might even go and buy a copy, Nah maybe not http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif Oh BTW Im on the cover of True Grip http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif LOL |
"I'LL HAVE A COPY OF PENTHOUSE, PLEASE (shshshssssh there's a copy of Performance Ford in there too - no don't draw attention to it...)"
Congrats Mike, I'll check it out. Hopefully bump into you at the next track day. Nick. |
Blp,
That's next week... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif Harj, No the reason is because (and I quote) "To our knowledge, this is the quickest road-going Sierra Cossie on the planet. Ever." http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif I know you are on the front of True Grip, I dropped it in astonishment when I opened it up and was greeted by your (wo)manly features... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif LOL Mike R |

Errr Gary,
That's why the car is in PERFORMANCE FORD. Repeat after me, "I must learn to read before posting comments that make me look like a complete muppet... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif" LOL Mike R |
Mike,
thought you were in "80s fashion" magazine next week. Womans Own the week after!? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif robski |
Mike
Yeah Yeah Yeah blah blah blah, I'm glad you mentioned that or I would be the unhappy owner of a copy of Fast Ford tonight (Doh !) Ps Have they put your BHP in there ? Gary |
can I just point out that both 'Mike Rainbird' <I>and</I> his 'car' do not actually exist - they are the anthropomorphisation of the combined RSOC BBS collective imaginations, you should <B>only ever</B> believe what you see when accompianied by a geniune RR graph http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
..just pulling yer leg.... 'Mike' http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif |
This happened to a friend of mine. He took some legal advice and I think he ended up with some compensation. May be worth thinking about.
Hope things work out OK. Otis http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif. |

Gary,
Yes, power figures are detailed. GP, Not my fault what they did and did not print, the figures were provided... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif Anyway, the speed speaks for itself... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Gary and Otis, http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif ROFLOL Mike R |
Mike,
Well done, but.......... Isn't this going to hamper the sales of future PF mags!!?? Surely this must be a problem with having Ford's RALLY HERTZ on the front covers!!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif When you gonna grow up and put that engine in a proper shell.......something like an Escort would do the trick!!!!!!! FASTEST SHED IN THE WORLD Owned and pootled along by Mr.Mike"Fill my Cavity"Rainbird http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Shaun. |
actually - I haven't even seen the feature!
(jogs Mikes memory about a certain conversation a few months ago about NA engines and 250bhp power figures etc) still buildin' it btw mate http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif - not a snifter of a power graph but yet it sits there large as life in my shed without any apparent tendency to disappear in a puff of scepticism http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif |
Shaun,
Oh yeah, put the engine in an Escort and watch the top speed drop by 15mph, lunch the teeth of the gearbox in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th AND 5th, have the front diff spit out both drive shafts, snap the transfer chain and chew the rear diff up in to hundreds of pieces, apart form that as usual a well thought out comment from Shaunee... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/rolleyes.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif LOL Mike R |
Mike,
You "Born again Gonzoid"!!!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif You wanna read what you preach yourself!!! I said change the SHELL, u donkey swab. I didn't say anything about the tranny...YOU TRANNY!!!!! But somebody that can't read, can't think, can't pull (apart from his own cocktail sausage), can't remember........you have the right kind of imaged car, don't ya!!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif Stick to smoking ya pipe (I think it's a pipe, but then again I have never seen skin coloured pipes before!!!!), and put ya slippers back on!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif Shaun. |
Shaun,
I am beginning to see a particular theme running through your all your threads... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif You seem fixated with homosexualty and cross-dressing, which can only lead us to one conclusion... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Why don't you just come "out" and get it off your chest http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif. We all know the g'friend is a front and that she has never seen your pork sword, due to the fact that you can only get it up with people that have "meat and two veg" between their legs. LOL Mike R |
So Mike you going to tell us how many Shetland ponies you have under the bonnet now? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
I even tried go buy it this lunchtime but they still had last months issue. Mark |
Mark,
Read the magazine and all 500+ Shire horses will be revealed... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif LOL Mike R |
Mike,
Now now!!! Just because I wouldn't let you "Play a tune on my skinflute".....no need to get bitchy!!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Shaun. |
My car has been on the cover of Top Gear Magazine, AutoCar, Auto Express and The Guardian... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif I suppose I could park it on/drive it over a copy of Fast Ford too, but that would mean I'd have to buy a copy... (shiver). http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
|
If Mikes on the front, it must look very similar to a 1984 copy of Smash Hits......
http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif |
It does not matter what car you have, getting it on the cover of a Car Mag is a 'kin remarkable achievement
I only managed a small thing in Fast Car about 10 years ago, yes I still have the mag, well several copies & the remains of that car. Well do to all |

Sorry, I can't resist posting this again! ( I think it's a great pic and I'm so chuffed that I learnt how to post it!)

Pay no attention to those nasty people. I think it looks great. When I see you next would you mind if Ihad my photo taken by it?
I have all my 80's gear ready for the photo shoot.. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif Lonely Norfolk Scooby! All the best Mike. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif Matthew Ps. woz it u down the pub on Sunday in the beer garden? no other details (just in case!!) http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif |
Obviousley very desperate for covers thats all I can say. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/confused.gif
|
Nice one Mike and I still arent going to get in it http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif
Perhaps your company car will make it into a magazine one day http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif cheers chrisp |
... 700 "real gee-gees"? I assume not.
It would need a bit more than that anyway to balance the weight and drivetrain loss differences. Now, a genuine 450bhp light bodied scooby may have more of a chance... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
