Nice btw

36 or 43? I'd have either to be honest. E55 would be tolerable also.

43 my dear Jimbob I'm trying to figure out if my life is really worth THAT much more than £4,499 that it would cost to buy, and the three hundred thousand it would cost to insure May have to settle for a Jag XJR

Fuck that! Drove one a couple of weeks ago. It was awful. Such a disappointment. Always wanted one. Not now though

Get the Merc. I know every Merc built after 1995 is made of rust and shit but it's gotta be quick and therefore good.

I hear that the 43 is a little less aggressive in it's behaviour than the 36, but it IS a V8 and does make a little more power and it IS a tiny little thing so it MUST still be an animal.

Don't you mean THE Capri? There will only be one left, probably the Wurth Zakspeed one, in the museum, by the time you're done.

James, i can answer this question for you. In order to stop building the corsa and buy a ford, you actually need to start building the corsa........... you cant stop what you havent started for a couple of years

I must be getting tired. For a split second I thought you were actually being serious, until I realised you waft about in a vegy mobile. Yes, they are old mens cars. But just because you're old doesn't mean you can't have fun. Unless of course you are dead.

Can anyone else imagine if he did get a Ford how long it would before he'll drove that

It'll be in bits on a quest to find rust
