Speaking of splitters...

Any body heading to the forest park in roscomman on sunday? Ireland Splitter Scufflers are having a meet. Felt spec galore and some japs.. There is about 1500 attending on the facebook page..

Splitter Scuffers used to be class, the original SS page like - about 100k members and every night between the hours of 7pm and 1am was complete carnage, it got deleted like last year or the year before.

I might go to this on sunday

Never seen a speedo go so high

joujoujou · 17-04-2015 09:50PM

Yet another opinion regarding prius or not - the thing is ugly (IMO), but despite that I almost bought one. Almost - because had almost enough money for.

I'm currently considering to buy lex CT200h instead, but obviously there's no one in a 4.5k price bracket.

In fact though, it's a prius in nice(r) box.

Who the feck goes to Roscommon unless under extreme duress

colm_mcm · 17-04-2015 09:53PM

The CT will be a shrewd choice in a few years. As a new car they make no sense and are in a way outclassed by diesels. Few years down the line, sub €10k they will be a safe choice for economical driving

Anyone else notice upload image using link not working tonight?

For me, any new car makes no sense (depreciation-wise). And again, speaking about diesels - depends on personal preferences - I'd never go diesel. But I'm weird, I know that alright.

colm_mcm · 17-04-2015 10:06PM

I use the skypath app for uploading pics. Love it.

I'm kinda the same. I'm doing diesel mileage but won't buy one.

I think you're probably still suffering from the psychological effects of the Jaaaaag.

why? out of curiosity

joujoujou · 18-04-2015 08:22AM

Because I hate them. Simple.

Don't like white cars, for example. Why? There's no good answer if you know what I mean.

Edit: few more factors in my mind against diesels, but I do not want to trigger petrol vs diesel war here.

Some twat playing hurling in a carpark just hit my car with the sliotar. Fcking cheek of him when I gave out to him. He was shocked that I wasn't happy with what he did!

GvidoR · 18-04-2015 02:25PM

Who plays hurling (or any kind of sport for that matter) in a car park? :eek:
