They were having a Harley giveaway this morning on the classic rock station I was listening to this morning. I thought that was really cool too.  |

I've seen several of those in the states. They're even bigger than I remember them as a kid in the 70s. They still look the same in the face, but with a few slight differences. The Shelby Mustangs look really good. |

I nearly got splatted by a topless Crossfire at work a few weeks ago. Same carpark as where I nearly got splatted by the Conti GT.
Forgot to mention, yesterday I saw a Porsche 924 and a 944. I did look around to see if anyone was limping along nearby in a 928 but couldn't complete the "Cheap Porsche Challenge" set!

As I was waiting for my train connection at Stafford I saw three old, tatty VW campers crossing the station bridge, very slowly in convoy. Just for a minute I thought 'ey up, it's a new TG challenge  |

It occurred to me that 'camper van challenge' might be worth doing. They could see who could 'remodel' the interior to provide the most comfort/facilities etc and try souping the VWs up to get some sort of speed out of them. Most of the ones I get stuck behind make a lot of noise but don't go very fast |

See, if Mr Wilman visited this forum instead of FG he'd have lots of new ideas for the next series.  |

Unfortunately, the camper van challenge has already been done by Fifth Gear in one of their 'lets rip off the TG style...Badly' films Not that I watched it  |

I never seem to have my camera ready when I need it! South Carolina is crawling with Morgans. We've seen several in just the past 2 days!

I can't wait to read the one by his wife - I should think that'll be even funnier. ;D

As I've often commented, I tend to see a couple of Nissan Figaros every day en route to work and back, and have only ever seen them in my borough and the one where I work, for some reason! I usually see beige or grey ones, occasionally pale blue and light green ones, and once a pink one. But yesterday I saw a yellow one, in the West End, near Baker Street tube. (Disclaimer - before you shout they don't make yellow = Of course as a complete petrol head numpty, it may have been something that looked remarkably like a Figaro I do have trouble spotting cars that are the same as my own, I mean I do spend more time looking at the inside!) |

Maibee, if it looked like a Figaro and was bright yellow, there's a very good chance it was a Figaro ;D People do seem to like to respray them. I saw a purple one once.
The other day I saw a grey one pootling along with the top down and I noticed that they had somehow managed to force someone into the back seats!

Hello all, I just found out what a Figaro is. It's that car that Sarah-Jane Smith has, off Doctor Who. Thanks for mention that Maibee, otherwise i would have never found out what that car was. Anyway, I have seen quite a few cool cars recently, like one of those Figaros, a Chrysler Crossfire, a few Porsche Boxters, a million and one Porsche 911 Carrera Ss, lotts of Mazda MX5s, a Lamborghini not sure what, a Ferrari F430 and I always see a model F430 when ever I go into the dining room at my dad's house because my brother has a massive remote control one! I think that is about it, but I can't really remember right now. Have fun on the board everyone! :)xX~LPS~Xx |

Hello all, Today I saw 3 Ford Model Ts! And yesterday I saw a Porsche Boxter. When I looked at the person inside the first thing I saw was long hair, so I thought"Oh my god, it's James", but then I noticed that he had a bald patch on top so it couldn't have been James. I was wondering why he had drove down to where I live... :)xX~LPS~Xx |
