Mine was still rapid even with a f*cked engine, even today once it was up to temp the engine ran a lot smoother, other than the misfire. I'm starting to think after 20 years they're all f*cked unless you spent £5k on a nice one.

You should keep it then if you're using it to rebuild another. I might have to do the same with cars, buy another to build one good one out the two.

Seeing everyone's Clio's last week at CSF made me miss mine so much I decided it needs to be resurrected, even with a f*cked engine it can't just sit there rotting. (I also needed to weed the concrete) Battery was utterly dead despite me charging it every month I had nothing but relay...

I'm trying to fix one of my iPods, it works when plugged in but not on battery. I bought a cheap £25 repair kit and I've swapped the battery, but it looks like the connector has come away from the circuit board. Is this meant to be soldered on? Because it doesn't look like it's ever been...

I bet one of them dies before it's finished.

His autism is his secret weapon, unbelievable levels of car control from that lad, he's a absolute machine! He's also like an excitable little puppy, I love him to bits already and I've only known him for two days.

I'm already starting to forget who's face and name goes with their avatar and username.

You need a Trilby or Boater to keep the sun off your head. #hatwanker

He handed it to me too, as soon as I felt the weight of it I thought, this thing's worth more than car.

The depth of field has made the car look like a toy that Cub's about to pick up and put in his pocket.

Fair play, it's been so long since I've had a car I liked I forgot people take longer routes just to enjoy driving.

YT content?

It took my 5 hours to do a 3 hour journey last time because I trusted Google maps making me avoid the A55 and go the scenic route that was even slower.

Is M40 to M6 Knutsford, then do a left into north Wales not quicker?

Depends what they want in relation to an MOT failure R5, I get wanting to do a real barn find but you might be paying a premium for moss and dirt. Unless it's a very early one or rare spec, that's a different story.

Did you tell them they can keep the plates?

Did the cat sit on your keyboard?

Literally a wild Unicorn.

I bet more people have seen UFOs flying around than have seen F40's in the wild that wasn't a car show or club meet.

Mad to think furious customers demanded their deposits back because it was a V6 twin turbo and not a proper supercar engine Jaguar had promised.

Zetec for performance or 302 small block V8 for noise and attention.

I'd upgrade everything, I had an idea of buying one in parts when prices went mental, chassis, rear beam, engine, box etc and building one over a few years, but even the parts are silly money now. I thought VW scene tax was bad, it's got nothing on Ford tax.

So expensive now, even for a rot box.

Just watched this it was excellent, the car sounds like thunder.

Shame, that would have helped alot. It's all sorted now, he hated getting a claims company onto them as he said they were sound as f*ck with him and really apologetic, it's just his insurer refused to do their job leaving him little choice.

Forgot to update this, his insurer essentially told him to pay for the damage himself through his excess and chase the other insurer for the rest, so he got an independent claims company involved who took his car for repair, gave him a courtesy car and sorted the whole mess out for him, he now...

I was fine until a wizard sold me some magic beans, things got weird after that.

I just read that out loud and my furniture started floating

That's different.
