Annie, he didn't happen to have a Max Power window sticker as well, did he ?
Always seems to be kids with more car body work than sense have Max Power stickers..make oie laugh it do, weedy little engine, massive exhuast pipes & so low too the ground that the 1st speed bump takes off that piece or oversize plastic they stick to the front of the car..I've never seen the point of spending about 50p buying a car then spending tens of thousands on it myself..God do I sound old.

We MUST and HAVE TO do it. Well I never!

The customer is often right; but in this case the customer is a ring-piece of the highest order.

Never darken my yard again, young man with your stupid haircut, Janspeed rip-off back-box and boy-ed up mark 5 Eski (MkV's are sooooo last century...). And whoever told you that black wheels look good on a maroon car was pulling your two-inch todger.

spleen vented - happy now :)
are you a mechanic?
