No **** a company in britain I think is making modern versions of this lool can't wait I want one lol I went one one as a kid at some museum held up by my father and some other bloke lol was amaising untill I had to get off lmao !!
 
Yeha its a 56 plate reg like!! its the only car out of my mates you can actually talk to as it has voice activation which is well cool for showing off to the fanny when you ask your car to do something for ya with a lass who has no idea of technology lol bit like the eurofighter and yes i do call her Nagging Nora lool all for £7,800!!
 
i dunno on a track, on a dry hot day, and a set of slicks, and my bike race tuned (what i'm planning to do) i reckon your cobra would need new fangs :icon_lol: its easy to beat a vehicle with turbo, due to turbo-lag, just get in front and stay there, easier on single carriageway roads here in the UK, trust me here i've had guys do it in little Peugeot 306's when on my uncles bike, i just follow them to a dual carriageway so they think "whys he following us?" then lean forwards onto the tank force the front end down and power off past them good fun :icon_lol:

My car puts all 700 down on the street, and at the track it really hooks. I havent' found one street bike yet that can get me on race day or on the street. What's your best quarter-mile time? I don't really race on the street much anymore except for quick blasts. It's simply not safe to open up that much power on public and unprepped roads.

Jankees,

I also drive around in a Subaru Outback. Wouldn't buy anything else really. 3 litre, 6 cylinder boxer engine, has plenty of grunt for when I need it... quite suprising for a 'family' car..lol.

I bought this new 24 years ago. A certain mate from the U.K. came to Fla. one year and drove it. Didn't think I was going to get him out of it! :icon_lol:
 
Just been at a near garage, where they did a world record in test driving, they did about 1500 test drives. Took 4 cars out, VW Passat Blue Motion, was quite nice, doesn´t need too much gas for an estate car. Great for a car to really use without being to expensive in running costs. 2nd was a VW Golf VI (Rabbit in USA), TSI (Turbo-Supercharged), 1.4l engine, 170hp, automatic, was pretty good stopping and accelerating to 60 mph, great fun. Used more than 50 liters per 100 kilometers though (would be 4.7 mpg :d), wouldn´t drive one of those every day, but pretty funny.
3rd was an Audi A4 Estate, automatic, accelerated quite good, got to about 105 mph on a little more than a mile straight from standing. Best one was the last one, A4 S-Line, Gas-engine, turbocharged, took it throught some steep turns over a near hill, amazing, great handling, hand shift, was hard to pay at least a little attention to those speed limits....

All in all, a great day, they should do those kind of things more often. Only bad was that they didn´t have an R8 for test drive.....:d
 
2008 Audi TT, V6, 6 speed manual.

My jealousy over DaveQ's 3 series convertible has just been blown away to make room for the jealousy over your TT. :d

Care to lend it to me for a few months? :icon_lol:
 
3 Wheeler

Its got 3 little wheels that are normally used only when it is standing still!
 
I went outta my league with this one but i couldn't withstand the shape and lines of this beauty. I traded my 10 year old Chrysler Voyager for this 300C Touring about half a year ago and still feel like the Prince of Persia.

3ltr, twin turbo and now stuck in the garage for 2 years due to a speeding ban. LOL at least the low milage keeps the insurance down.
