Loud car exhausts (and a general rant about boy racers).

[Richard A Thackeray]

That would be impossible on my car. There is no key to turn!

I once had a 2A Land Rover like that, it had a starter-button

And, if it was cold, it helped you to keep warm, & flexible, by only firing up after frantic use of the starting handle!

What they are trying to achieve with this:

Is this:

Complete with "Please pull me over, Officer" number plate spacing.
Also re-badged as an Opel, so it must be fast as ****.

BTW, thats Brian Johnson driving the Alfa in the video clip.
I've also just realised he's 69 this year too.

Looks to me like the picture's from Northern Ireland - the Mini up the road looks like it's registered TMI - so it's likely to be an import from the Republic.

Careful, you'll be getting @Marmion all excited with talk like that.

Nothing wrong with loud exhausts - providing there's a V8 on the other end of it...

Remember those "ON A MISSION" signs at the top of the windscreen? Ugh.

I used to love those!

We had a local evangelical church using the same slogan in a missionary campaign

Pull alongside in a traffic queue or when in a car park and formally bless them, complimenting the fact they are unafraid to show their religious conviction in public


Brilliant windup

My thought was more 69, like Lemmy and Bowie. Sorry, very OT.

Probably the same knobheads who fit headlight bulbs that can be seen from space. Think it's a willy size issue?

Don't get me started on those damn lights either factory fir or Halfords own...they should be banned as they are a danger to all other roads users blinding the crap out of us ! I drove down the A-17 from Norfolk yesterday in the dark and rain and the amount of times these "Legal" headlamps caused me issues due there there brightness was unbelievable. I know they are supposed to be safer for the driver so they do not have to be more aware of the road ahead,but they are a danger to to others.

Enlighten me, how do you tell an illegal bulb from a legal one. We have 4 cars here and the headlights are different on all of them.

Now the cars with no lights on the offside is a bad one.
