Im sorry but I was a tad pissed off earlier at an old mate of mine...
He told me he was selling his Nissan Primera GT for £1500 - I asked him about some of the stats for hit.... his words were this...
"0-60 in 4.8 seconds, I blitzed an Astra VXR earlier and I kept up with a skyline"
I was at work at the time so I couldn't have a go at him, I asked him what bhp it is an he said 150 
He then followed on by telling me he is going to sell his nissan primera and get a supra and make it "800bhp" 
*And then he wakes up*
[bearing in mind he works at a ford dealers earning £5.30ph]
I told him that I have a keen interest in getting a MK4 Astra GSI when I finally get a full time job  he said they were shit and slow....
It just fooks me off that he is willing to lie about shit even know we both know he's wrong lol 
I'm guessing many of you are on the receiving end of bullshit like this

Yeah, but we take it like men and don't bitch about it on an internet forum.
Just kidding, you seem like a nice guy.

Haha my mates brother lives in Runcorn and hes a bad boyracer, he bought a Metro 1.1GTi, it was a flyer and could keep up with a 1.8 Focus and an Impreza, before that he had a 1.8 Sierra (saph shape) which he fitted a Cosworth gearbox too which added 100bhp, his mates got the fastest Polo in the country which we've never seen.
He was quickly nicknamed Ste the Bullshit

tell him to upgrade his flux capacitor to an emmett brand one for an easy 25bhp, then offer to take him to halfords to buy one and watch and laugh when he asks the parts desk for one
edit- actually halfords will probably spend ages looking for one beforeconfusedly tellin him theyre out of stock

when people say they did a skyline etc, how do they know that that skyline was giving it its all, etc changing gears at high revs, he might not have even dropped it down a gear and could have
