Nice motor McLove! Something up with the reg though, I wanted to see what size engine it was but neither Motorcheck or cartell recognise that reg

11lk3349 is the newest reg on the systems so its probably on its way on

Out for a spin in killarney today, up around molls and dunloe, great driving roads except for the lovely cyclists

Say hello to ms. Yb who wouldn't get out of the car :rolleyes:

Kaiser D · 08-03-2014 02:48PM

I know its wrong, but those M6 wheels aren't even that bad.

Sometimes I think that. .

But the other 99% of the time I want to dissolve them in acid so that nobody can ever put them on a car again

I'll change them when money allows

EDIT: Never mind, turned out it was just my laptop

Your in my mindset about my alloys then too?

Meanwhile at châteaux de pickles

JohnBoy26 · 08-03-2014 04:42PM

I think those original saab alloys really suit those cars.

YbFocus · 08-03-2014 04:48PM

Sorry mr. Pickles but I'm with John boy On this, I like them on the Saabs

Although I like the new ones moreso

Noccy_Mondy · 08-03-2014 04:50PM

Can ya put on one of the new alloys pickles and post back here? Then we can decide which is nicer :pac: I'm with the new ones btw.

See I do like them sometimes, they really set it off, but there's an aero estate knocking around college and they have the newer ones and it looks really nice, so I'm in a bit of a torn state with them y'know?

Was never a fan of the Dodge Viper, don't know why just something about it.

I loved driving it on gran turismo!

Big Nasty · 08-03-2014 07:05PM

Never liked the look of the standard Viper myself, the SRT on the other hand.......

YbFocus · 08-03-2014 07:39PM

I just don't like vipers, they seem overly huge and well, American really.
Big brutes of yolks

8.3 v10..
Seriously have a massive car horn for these beasts. However, even sh!t clapped out versions go for north of $15k in the US so it will be a while before I get one!

I like my big capacities in euro form

Me too, but I prefer the rumble of a yank v8 compared to a euro v8.
European engines are too efficient and clean sounding for my liking.
I do like the v10 in e60 m5s though, when they drop a bit I'd consider that.

ofcork · 08-03-2014 08:41PM

600 odd bhp isn't huge for an 8 litre when the Veyron is double that ok with 4 turbos and merc get the same from 6 litres with twin turbos.

YbFocus · 08-03-2014 08:47PM

E39 540 on straight pipes

Maserati gran turismo v12. The best sound in the world. .

Upon my lotto win that'll be ordered the next morning, a Stradale in white please

Ah but it isn't all about the power
It is about the torque and that ungodly roar of an inefficient and needlessly big engine.
Ain't no replacement for displacement!

And the veyron is a quadro turbocharged w16 engine, effectively two twin turbo v8's stuck together, hardly the same thing as a n/a v10

Doesn't matter a fvck when it comes to devil juice :P

nd · 08-03-2014 09:02PM

imo the original viper was a lovely looking thing, particularly for the era. Would love one of them.

ofcork · 08-03-2014 09:03PM

The best sound from a V10 has to be the Carrera gt addictive!

They may be inefficient but the sound of a big fvck ass American V8 is awesome.

Yank tanks tend to have lower bhp compared to similar block sized Euro cars but by God do they love their torque!

Seeing as we don't have Autobhans big torque is more rewarding than big bips IMO.

Nah not jealousy at all lad! My hatred stems from the car I drove when I first got my provisional licence - a Peugeot 1.6 diesel. Bloody thing wouldn't pull the tits off a leper!

The merc V8 sounds well in the c63 and sls.
