Thread Name: BS: Fast car worship
Subject: RE: BS: Fast car worship
I love cars so it's a pity that my 'new' car (a 1980 Citroen Dyane) is currently sitting in a field in Norn Ireland awaiting restoration, with "not scrap" painted on the back in Massey Ferguson red.

Top Gear is hilarious and interesting and is the best thing on TV on a Sunday night. It has never made me speed - possibly because my car doesn't actually go, but also because I drive like a granny (though I've been drag racing twice, but both times in tiny engine cars).

I am getting a ratchet set for Christmas, and a 13mm spanner. Wooo! And I'm driving to Mongolia - and back - again next year in a pimped up Renault Clio. And I'm ging to go as fast as I can on the autobahn (probably 65mph).

Four wheels good, two legs bad.
