Default WANTED Sprint car to borrow for TOTB

Happy to put my own petrol in, and I'll even give you £50 for the tyres I chew up

Don't want to spend more than £200 on the higher of the car for the weekend, and I need it delivering please

Anything I've missed?

You want it washing and servicing beforehand and to come with a full tank of fuel

I have a 1 litre saxo with bad boy bonnet you can hire for £500 a day. No need to thank me, it's what I do.

I've got an old astra here that I can rip the interior out of if you wanna use that.
Call it £150 for the weekend plus fuel and i'll cover the tyre damage......

After some careful deliberation, I've decided to sweeten the deal to try in hope that some chav who's managed to afford a Scoob will drop me a pm.

Now prepared to map the car myself with my Acer XP laptop and vag lead. I'll even map for use of the dregs of a 205L barrel of meth ( well I think its meth) I've had outside for a few years too

I'll happily wash tbe car down too at my local £1 car wash and sprinkle some brut on the driver seat afterwards to cover up any undesired smells.

Oh and for added security at Elvington, I'll keep tbe car close by the Wong pi$$ up tent and BBQ to prevent it going missing!

Good idea, providing the owner isn't hefty as I don't want to be carrying excessive weight. So ideally someone under 8 stone, and maybe of a bra size 34C

I have considered your offer very carefully and can see a clear financial gain. . I can provide you with my 22b that I have just lovingly restored and spent many many thousands on but would have to ask that you give it at least 5 miles to run the new engine in as I have not yet drove it myself. There would be no need for your methanol as its been mapped to run on 95 ron so it doesn't cost me to much at the pump (every penny counts ) and the new tyres I have bought dont wear down I am told by the tyre fitter so will be no need for your tyre contribution.

I hope to hear from you soon and just hope that you have not had a better offer.

your's sincerely

I'm worried that the 205L barrel of meth you left outside has been leaking into the water supply.

Thanks for the offer Chris, but I would ideally like something newer, not an old rear arch rust bucket. Also bigger CC the engine the better, so a bullet proof Soec D would be perfect. I heard you can remap these to almost 500/500 with little mods

Oh and as for the tyres that your fitter sold you: I would be very interested in buying some, or borrowing and returning after the event!


As for the meth, none has leaked, my daughter was playing in the sandpit out back yesterday and she said that she left enough in there for a few gallon mix. The only possible contamination with water is when she splashed it at her mates and then I hosed them down as I know it's not good for her, she has a limitless dry skin and it irritates now and again. Her mates are fine with it though, although one friend hasnt been round now for a while, and I think the family have gone on holiday to one of those Centres Parks..... St Peters Skin Graft Centre I think they call it

I'd ask my mate for his WRC Dmack Fiesta, but at £500k a car I think the answer would be

I had considered it

I doubt the straightliners marshals would be happy about that though!

Hmmm an email to the chairman maybe
