Looks very much like the dummy I saw today



It would be a surprise though if Makkinen would be co-driver with Solberg

don't like the thing on the top and I'm not crasy about the new shape - front looks weird... just my opinion ... but I'm sure there are plenty that do like it.

Does it do over 270 bhp on a Rolling Road? Mine does - just in case you missed my thread

a very proud of my car
P

just realised (ha ha) it's a rally car isn't it???? dooohhh
it's a blond thing

You're right about 555 being a ciggie, and I do think they were once sold in the UK but a long time ago

Used to be known as 555 State Express made by the British American Tobacco company ( the reason for Colin McRae's *555 BAT registration). Now being re launched in the UK and available today.

Far be it for me to condone the use of tobacco products, but you could think of it as a form of Sponsorship for SWRT

555 cigarettes have been relaunched in the UK recently.

Available in standard flavour and mild/lights!

Haven't tried them, but I've quit smoking for nearly a fortnight now!
