lol lazs, if you want to play, I'll play.
you said that the evo not only would go around a tight roundabout at 70 but then ACCELERATE to 140. I am saying that I could probly go around a "roundabout" pretty well in the old elky and accelerate just fine to 140... you would be looking at taillights... big ones.
Did I say it couldn't? Nope.
but.. don't know if england can make torque illegal... they tax television signals tho.
lol nice one. Check your sources though, and you'll find you're well off the mark. The license fee pays for the service - it's not a governmental tax. None of that money goes to government coffers to be redistributed, unlike road tax for instance, or tax on tobacco.
But dowding... I was talking about my car so.... lets talk about yours. Someone who knows so much about automobiles as you obviously think you do must have a pretty interesting car right? so what is it? How long did it take yu to build it and what do you plane to do to it in the immediate future?
My car is a hunk o' junk. I freely admit that - but it gets me from A to B. I made a choice when it came to a car - either buy a brand new apartment in the city or a better car. It was an easy choice. One day I know I will have a fast car - and be able to insure it. At 25 years old an Impreza Turbo (not STi, just bog standard turbo) will cost me 2 grand a year to insure. I'll wait a while and build my no claims on a crap car. Also, it's alot more satisfying to get something you've had to work hard to afford - I've done it once and I'll do it again.
Astronomers are experts on stars, but very few have actually been near one to my knowledge. Furthermore, I don't claim to be an expert on cars, but I do have a good level of knowledge. . I've been in a few fast cars and I've been fascinated by motor racing for a very long time; I like to think I can come to an informed opinion on most issues.
I been to england... that is crazy... did you think of all the people you would have killed and maimed if you had lost control or had a mechanical failure?
You went to England and visited a few bars of dubious patronage yada yada yada... yeah I remember. FYI it was 2am and there was no-one on the road in question. The risk was to ourselves only, otherwise we would have not pushed so hard.
...for someone so worried about their neighbor owning a firearm...
And now we have the icing on the cake - the straw man argument based on thin air! Kindly point out where I have said that.
As usual, the argument turns towards guns. And as usual, a few posts down the line you'll be bleating that Europeans should not be concerned with US gun control, even though the subject was raised by yourself.
You're a funny guy Lazs.
