Not at all mate. I keep on top of all my motors regardless if its a new car or an old shooting bus.  Infact I keep on top of all my stuff keep it good for years not a fan of running stuff down and replacing it just because. 

Think it's more I know I was a wasteful wee b*****d as a young teenager and would be worried karma would catch up with me. 

 

And...... I can't afford a mclaren lol.

Is that one of them, Wilf? This was about forty odd years ago, I met the thing.

Oddly enough, my enduring memory is of seeing one on a billboard. Something on a bus I took at that time. Passed it often enough.

" Lamborghini In Full Fighting Strip ". Something like that?

It was next to a car park, where I ~ also from that same bus ~ witnessed a bunch of lads, hanging out of a motor which was backing out.

They were all waving their arms and screaming, so all the world could hear and notice them: " Aabree! Aabree! "

And I remember sitting there, looking down on them from the top deck of that bus, and my soul. And thinking:

'You pathetic, plastic fukking *NicePix* types! You fukking embarrass me! '

 

It’s my pals Gallado Spyder, he sent me a picture then phoned me and sad “Do you think this looks like a f***ing Robin Reliant?” and I said “Just f***ing buy it you tight c**t !” Lol

I like my motors but for me it's sleepers all the way,  there's something magical about a kid  spanking lambo's  in a Honda civic

Why do these threads always end in a old Ford jerk fest ? They are shite....imo

I went to a vintage race day. One race was all Porches complete with Nigels dressed in race day overalls with sponsors names all over them. Right at the front of the grid was a Mk 1 Escort in duck egg blue and nothing except a race number and flared wheel arches to distinguish it from a bog standard repmobile. It pi$$ed all over the German cars. Turned out to be  Lotus Ford.

The only thing original on that is the badge and that's probably a titanium  factory works badge
