I have to say, 4 is fantastic. Would love to see that with the actual wheels instead of PS

 

I really like this car.

was sitting at the lights yesterday waiting for them to change when my car just died...i then panicked, got out the car and opened the bonnet expecting something serious, but i couldnt find the problem. so after a lot of flapping about and being annoyed, i called my dad to come rescue me and help diagnose the problem....

 

what was the problem i hear you ask???

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ran out of petrol.......      turns out when my fuel guage says empty, it actually is empty.

 

not my brightest moment :shy:  :lol:
