And I'm a general muscle car fan with a preference for Mustangs - always have been.  Given I don't want to hurl them around a race track, I'm generally Ok with 'adequate' handling of US cars, although I appreciate they are improving
That's not what you said earlier... ::)

Still, only 76 posts to go :-X
My earlier point was to sell more widely in Europe, US manufacturers need to improve their car's handling... From my personal perspective, it's not what motivates me given I drive to the rules of the road.  Also, I find that driving V8 american car make me drive slower.

More likely is that on receipt of the court paperwork, the company realised that they weren't going to bully you into paying and that the court would have found in your favour.

So they will have given up on your 'case' and are now concentrating on some other, more gullible sucker.
I think you're right

Hello  ;D

Once again the experts recommend the new runway at Heathrow. makes sense unless you live there.

How long can Cameron kick the can (again) down the road and avoid making an unpopular decision. He says by the end of the year. Ye gods just get on with it. How many more times will there be a report, inquiry, investigation to come up with the same answer.

It will still take another twenty years to build it by which time the rest of Europe will have robbed all our trade and tourism with China and the likes.

Me, I still favour Boris island . An epic world class construction to last 50m years t5hrow in a theme park and a tidal energy barrage as well

PS Gatwick missed a trick. They should have built in free fares to and from London in their bid.

What do you think will happen?
I'm surprised as the billion pound benefits claimed, but think that if the UK does need more capacity that we should look elsewhere across the UK as opposed to expanding Heathrow

If you want more power get a Monaro or VXR8  :)
But I want an estate.  The MG ZT-T 260 appealed (Ford 4.6 V8 engine), but they're VERY expensive.  I do like the Monaro though - a 2 door Omega as I tell the wife

So, what about fitting a Turbo then (to a petrol engine obviously) - has anyone contemplated/done this ?

Legend has it that the NI police had some made by Courtenay, but they didn't last very long before having a temper tantrum. Bottom ends and general overheating, if memory serves...
Ah

And I imagine that the driver's spines took some hammering too - I'd not be surprised if they lost an inch in height !

The problem with the miggy is that it is like Ronseal "It does what it says on the tin" and very well just has the wrong badge. Maybe badge fads are for idiots that's why you find them behind the wheel of a BMW! ;D ;D ;D
Yep  :y

Find the right people and they can be made to work, but remember we are dealing with 1970/80's componentry here so you should expect some glitchs.  ;)
Of course, thanks.  I'd appreciate a heads up if you're going to any local shows in the future...
