I hate it when a car has side skirts lower than the back bumper!!

The wisest thing you've said all day! :w00t: :w00t:

I'm with Jammy, it irritates the hell out of me!

Or when they put a MAHOOSIVE exhaust on, then cut out the standard bumper really badly to make it fit. Or even worse, stick some chicken wire or metal plating around it! :thumbsup:

my dad has a 1990 micra, a boxy little thing, but it does the job and has never broken down from silly things. just a transmission failure. only rust is around the rear sills and wheel arch. I think it's cooler than that little chavmachine, no offense to the owner.


Old skool micras ruled!! :) ours never broke down ^_^ ('92 model) though in the past few years, each time to get it through the MOT more needed to be spent :thumbsup: general wear and tear though, it's gone to the great garage in the skies now though :'(

anywho, anything that screams of chav on a car is a no no!! :dontgetit:

I think he needs to start doing some of the work himself! Seems like he must have a lot of money if he's paying someone else to do everything for him!!

Ah i dunno japanese cars eh :- :goaway: *COUGH*Dave*COUGH*Jammy*COUGH* :goaway: :goaway:

ONLY JOKING lol, although when we were in germini last year and we were coming back from the walled town/city daves car suddenly drifted to the right really badly, and laoni thougth he'd done it on purpose as she was asleep, but i garentee he didnt, ive never seen his hand move so fast to grab the wheel lol

If this car weren't so chavy I think it would be a bloody good car. The owner has blatently just handed the cash over for the engine work as it sounds like he hasn't got a clue. To be fair though, it looks like who ever has done the engine work has done it very well. It looks like a very effective and efficient set up. I cant see a bigger turbo helping matters on that car though. It looks plenty big enough already!!!!

ye he calls understeer front wheel drift, think he reli is tryin t mix it with the jap boys, and says next to be done is cams then the engineer says it needs better cooling first and he comes back on saying it needs better cooling then cams, the .... never mentions better flowing head lowe compression higher boost, just bigger turbo, i read of a guy years back puttin awell sorted primeria engine in, but my personal fave is the old skool k10's they sold in aussie town 1L superturbo mmmm sleeper.

I reckon more companies should make 1l turbo's. They are obviously very effective. Ive always loved the Daihatsu Charade GTIi Turbo. They are bonkers when tuned. Ive got a complete motor from one ready for a special occasion should I ever get bord!! :w00t:
