    You're not cultured, and you have no understanding of the origins of techno, dubstep, dance or any type of electronic-based music of today :pac:

    Like Black Sabbath are the godfathers of metal (let's not get into the blues argument), Kraftwerk are the godfathers of electronica.

    Feckin cyclists. Some are fine but the majority are the bane of my existance. Especially this two abreast nonsense. Get the fudge out of the way!!

    (Btw I fully expect a forum ban for the trolling which is grand :P ... I dont need access to a cycling forum, I can actually afford a car :P )

    This wins everything forever

    I was coming out of clane after the karting meet and there was a big group of them on my side of the road, and you know how twisty that road is I'm taking, and there was 4 of them abreast, so, shall we say I got a bit vocal and that done the trick :pac:

    Broke out the Fr Ted box set :D

    Not really tbh, I've said as much to cyclists in person too.

    Im the kind of person that (well I wouldnt abandon the bmw for fear it would be stolen, but I used to in the golf and other older cars I drove) would get out and confront someone for bad driving, incorrect lane usage, etc.

    http://www.bmw535d.co.uk/id11.html

    TLDR: approx 370BHP on a 2005 535d wth DPF and Cat delete and aftermarket Ford RS500 intercooler.

    That's an interesting read, and I would have thought well beyond the realms of safety especially on the transmission.

    I'm currently occupied on selling my golf but once she's gone I will have the proceeds to spend on upgrading the 535!

    Speaking of BMW's, was behind a proper performance BMW on the way home from town today. A 08 M3, very tasty. Sounded so damn good taking off from every set of lights and he wasn't even pushing it.

    Had considered one as the next purchase before, but might be swaying more that way now. :D

    This part tells you it wasn't me. ;)

    Was driving back from Clare yesterday, so it wasn't me no. Sounds similar alright but I wouldn't put German style plates on anything let alone a Focus. :eek:

    M3 was silver. Heading towards Sutton/Howth.
