what bit about that seemed like a valid response to reliability concerns to you?

I don't think Lotus is still the same company as they were/making the same mistakes as in the 80's/90's..

Lol, nothing. I was just saying.

Yea, and an Audi 80 shares 50components with a Porsche 956.

I love my Audi 80, Le Mans winning pedigree. **** YEA.

Yea its got ti be more than 100 components lol

My RR shares hundreds of components with a BMW 5 series. Does that mean it is a 5 series? :dunce:

Also, your link to the car on fire failed. Photobucket are making some changes. Here you go.

Works fine for me.

Always a shame to see a nice piece of tarmac getting burnt up though.

edit: nevermind, it's an UK road, they can't get any worse.

Weird, must've been a temp glitch, is working now. Typical.

I think that'd improve most UK roads. One on my way to work has pot holes the size of a man hole cover and about 6 inches deep. Is a right nightmare trying to avoid them all.

I've seen the most 'highway maintenance' or something trucks driving around in the UK, but it had the worst roads I've ever driven on.

I may as well put my car up in the new thread since it's one of a few threads that i actually read on here anymore.

Yeah, they normally just butcher the roads. This country is a bit daft, the road near me can only be replaced once every 250 years. It has only been down for 20 and is totally buggered. Full of patchwork which fails with the slightest hint of frost, but all they can do is come back and patch it up. Got to wait another 230 years before they can tear the whole thing up and replace it properly.

here is mine after taking a bath :P

Slick, very slick. I like.

So many insults...
Coming from a BMW user, I'm somewhat amazed you have the stomach.

I almost fed the troll too..

Eww, those wheels
Eww, no popus
Eww, way to block the radiator
Eww, stupid placement of tax disc*

Otherwise, lovely little MX5 you've got there.

Law states it has to be on the nearside of the window. Draw a line down the middle of the car, it can be anywhere on that side as long as it is visible from the kerb. Probably worth noting if plod thing it'll obscure the drivers view, it is a a ticketable offence.
