If I click on someones name I can see their visitor messages. For some reason I can also delete those messages from that profile. Not sure if its just me or if everyone can do it. Probably not a great idea though.

[ballsie]

Will sort later - cheers.

[Dave]

I don't know about you lot but I think the best threads are the ones that end up off topic because they always die when we move them to their own thread. lol

[ballsie]

I don't know about you lot but I think the best threads are the ones that getting taking off topic and then they die when we move them to their own thread. lol

very true!

[Big Gordy]

OK if thats the way you want it...

best threads are the ones that getting taking off topic

What kind of grammar is that...:shock: "getting taking off"
Think you should go back to school and finish your English 'O' grade laddie:twisted:;-)
Or do you just want to slag of cars (that might not be a good idea in your case tho:roll::lol:)

I've always found, when slagging off someones grammar, its best to make sure your own post is correct when you're doing it :razz:

[Big Gordy]

it's more BMW than anything else lol

The wiring looms and plastic behind and around the dash on the mark2 ZS all have the BMW logo molded into them.....I kid you not:shock:

[Big Gordy]

Certainly is:mrgreen:

[Dave]

At least I never paid for what I have. lol

[Maxxed_Ross]

Good, I wouldn't have either

The wiring looms and plastic behind and around the dash on the mark2 ZS all have the BMW logo molded into them.....I kid you not:shock:

all the wiring and air con of from the last shape 3 series, the shell is a 10 year old Honda Civic Saloon, the gearbox is from Ford, the clutch is German - but the engine is 100% Rover :oops:

The suspension was developed by Lotus, which can't be a bad thing

It's not too sure what it is really - apart from rapid :razz:

Hmmmm

[Big Gordy]

Aaahaa....the secret post editor strikes again....:mrgreen:

Don't want to burst your bubble Big 'D' but nearly all new cars 'rapidly depreciate' as soon as you drive them out of the showroom:wink:

[Garrypd160]

It's not too sure what it is really - apart from rapid :razz:

I think that depends on your definition of rapid. Considering my old diesel bus is quicker :mrgreen:

[Big Gordy]

Considering my old diesel bus is quicker :mrgreen:

Hahahahahaha.....you jest:lol: You young guys who drink magic mushroom tea first thing in the morning really crack me up:mrgreen:

[Garrypd160]

No Jesting here. More power, more torque, less weight, plus its Yellow. Yellow cars are always quicker than blue ones.

[Big Gordy]

More power
Possibly...depends what size of diesel engine you have.

more torque
Definately

less weight
Overall...maybe (definately if its French as there made from tinfoil)
Engine....never. Compairing like for like diesel engine will always be heavier.

Yellow cars are always quicker than blue ones.
OK you win:mrgreen:

OK you win:mrgreen:

240bhp, 400lb/ft torque, 1036kg Kerb weight, and the car comes with a petrol turbo variant, that is identical apart from the engine and the petrol car weighs 15kg more. Diesel engines aren't as heavy as they used to be.

[Maxxed_Ross]

BHP - 178.0
Torque (lbs feet) - 283.4
Unladen weight - 1235

yeah I think you might have me there, but any idiot can go fast in a straight line :mrgreen:

[Garrypd160]

I wouldn't know, but I'll believe you if you say so :p

[drinternat]

That's where I've been going wrong!!!!!!:?

[ballsie]

It's scientifically proven than non-metallic cars are the fastest. Less weight in the paint!

Solid Paint for the win! :)

[Big Gordy]

Solid Paint for the win! :)

Apart from white of course which we all know is very gay;-):lol:

Mine is non metalic But its still Blue not Yellow. You'd think sales people would advise on these things. You just cant get the good salespeople these days!

Not impressed!! Having said that anything after 1987 wasnt really a Rover.............

[drinternat]

The SD1 Ah yes bring back memories. My wife had a (Blue) 3.5 version. It was a great car. (other than the fact it fell to bits with rust eventually)

[ballsie]

White is THE colour for 2008 Gordy - keep up ;-) :lol:

[drinternat]

So is white the new Yellow?

[stephen whyte]

I cant believe your SD1 had rust Derek your wife must have been one of the unluckier ones. Did she take it out in the rain by any chance - I heard they didn't like that.........

Mine as you can see never gets out in the rain as I plan to keep it more than a couple of years!!!

[Garrypd160]

White is THE colour for 2008 Gordy - keep up ;-) :lol:

I've never been a fan of white until recently. The new white paints just look amazing, and loads of manufacturers are now offering Arctic (or some other stupid name) special editions.

[Big Gordy]

White is THE colour for 2008 Gordy - keep up ;-) :lol:

You can't kid me laddie:tsk:....I know the only reason you bought a white car is to save you hiring one for the wedding ya cheapskate:roll::wink:

[ballsie]

The Wedding car is black I believe - strange, I know :)

[Big Gordy]

ohh its one of those goth weddings you're having is it:mrgreen:

Yes to my shame she not only used it she parked it outside then wondered why the boot filled up with water. You cant tell doctors anything though can you.
