sometimes i feel a fool.
know loads about shitty cars like novas, corsa, fiesta, i.e: small, cheap cars.
but when someone starts talking about astons, or jap cars, i hardly know anything about em, like the models or engine, specs etc....
anyone else find this...
i think its cos i look into realistic cars, not ones that i ain't gonna be owning in the near future...
Whats the story in balamorey?

i have a great technical knowedge of all cars..
they all have engines that make some thingys move which in turn make the wheels turn...
some have spinning things attached, which make them have funny "tish" noises.. others just go "brummm bababa"

'some' jap cars I'm ok with
Vauxhalls pretty confident with, aswell as 'older' vaux engines (8v's mainly) but absolute shite as far as diesels are concerned
Citroens are easy... just need a hammer & a tin-opener & your sorted with them!
Ooooh also not too bad on the old CVH engines in fords
