    That Figaro looks like the colour has faded, it mightlook nice in a darker pink maybe?

    I don't know, lads, I kind of like it.

    Now I wouldn't by any means drive it and it's seriously over priced but the colour suits the car and to be fair, not a lot of cars can pull off pink (Golf GTIs included).
    Mad money but not a mad car.

    *runs*

    Dislike!! :D

    I like the powder pink, a White dash would have been nicer but other than that I'd say it's a nice call on the colours.
    I HATE the general barbie pink you get on Beatles. I hate Beatles too... Ugly cars.

    Well, the old ones are alright.

    Well unless you got that backwards I support her choice! :)

    Or am I missing the point, are the Bora and Beetle are the same chassis and the rest?

    Those Figaro's are terrible terrible looking yolks.

    It actually looks like something Noddy would drive, and I don't say that in a complimentary way at all.

    Washed out green or pink, either one only deserves scrapping IMO.

    Was trying to save time by shaving in the coffee and shaking in the sugar.

    A huggeee lump of sugar fell in, I managed to break in rather than take it out. Drank the coffee anyway.

    Pretty sure I could run to Dublin now :L

    Neh, neh, neh...
    I'm dyslexic so it gives me a free pass for typos! :p

    For the record, I don't like The Beatles or new Beetles.
    They both annoy the **** out of me.

    Yup I see it more than you think. Normally just some guy out for his early morning jog as cars were flying past him at 120k not more than a meter away.

    Thats very dangerious, would that be on the hard shoulder?
