The real question is how come you got a cool frost sheen and we are buried under snow!? How does it handle in the bad weather?

Poor BMW feeling like the abandoned child at the moment.

That Panda is a cool little car.
Well done,,:)

hairyman · 02-12-2010 10:19pm

Here's my little runner.
No where near as fancy as the rest of the stuff in the thread, but when was the last time anybody saw one with that body style.

Thanks

Its officially the loudest car ever in Ireland and 1st in its own class in UK in 2009 :cool:

How does it handle in the bad weather?

Not willing to find out just yet. I nearly died on the motorbike earlier in the week, and I saw the neighbour in his 1-series plough the road sideways before giving up. RWD=no go.

Besides with around 3.5" of ground clearance in 2ft snow the road would be nice and clear after I've ploughed it, but I'd need a new motor.

Im having a great time this year as after last years snow i got myself some proper winter tyres, blizzaks and they are amazing:

Last year was a disaster as i was on track tyres which are basically slicks:

Christ I love the roofline of that :eek:

ArphaRima · 03-12-2010 11:56pm

Straight out of Ronin!
Loved S8's from that moment onwards.

MarkoC · 04-12-2010 12:17am

My daily drive Audi 100 S4 :cool:

Will buy S8 if they change the stupid tax system

Nice collection there Matt. A car for every season!

Gorgeous Exige Funky, Can't believe I haven't seen it in the plastic yet. I think you deserve a thread of your own just filled with pics

Matt Simis · 05-12-2010 7:48pm

Ok I know I already posted a photo, but whats the point in playing in Photoshop if you dont show anyone!? :P

Quick night time shot of the wheels (still awaiting those centre caps from Audi..)

Sweet.

Was behind you on the M4 weekend before last. You opened her up just at the start of the motorway off the N4 only to get cut up by a muppet.

You get the transmission niggles sorted?

I walked by that the other day (in that same spot) and thought that it was lovely looking.

Mostly, the cutting out on hills was a chronic shortage of Transmission Fluid. It still does a rough slam into some gears (when dropping down) which is likely caused by worn clutch packs in the Auto box (it has like 170k miles on it!).

Im going to change a few bits like the MAF and see can I indirectly improve it.

Oh really, how suspicious..

My parents live around there, so I park outside while the rest of the family parks behind the gates for some reason. :rolleyes:

I know. I copped my major error when I'd orginally posted but was too lazy to edit it. My bad!!

Gary ITR · 17-12-2010 11:57am

Mine in the middle of some tuning

Clutch slipped at high revs and the car spat fuel out the exhaust. No sound recorded for some reason though but take my word for it, it was loud

That was last night, with a slippy clutch I got 180, so tomorrow we'll see what happens with a new clutch
