I'm not from Japan but lived/worked there for a while (and will be moving back soon) and brought my Sambar back to the UK with me. Aside from a bit of hate from someone who owned a real VW bus everybody loves it. As you said, it's just so silly. I had the supercharged AWD version that they made in the '90s.
Wasn't it NOBLE PINK?
Thumbs up for Firebirds. I've got a Custom Shop Non-Reverse Firebird and a USA Firebird VII and love them both.
Which model? I had a 2210 for a while. Not as good as the single channel models but great fun.
Edited for stupidity.
This strikes me as a really bad move, like JV leaving Williams for BAR (which eventually became Mercedes). But if Lewis wants to be a rapper instead of a racer then more power to him. I mean, how was he supposed to feed himself on the pittance that McLaren were offering?
Crazy Taxi 1 > Crazy Taxi 2.
I am an idiot.
It could of course be bollocks, but it seems sensible to me and better than "Don't know what chip is. Must be Authentication chip."
I remembered this comment by KevBot from an earlier post about the adapter:
That's the only time Felipe Massa is going to be leading anything on track this year.
Very strange that they chose to do this on the same weekend as the Goodwood Revival. They could have broken 1000 easily, 1050 maybe. There were 15 250 GTOs there alone and dozens of other prancing horses...
There were a few T70 spyders at the Goodwood Revival this weekend. Two were battling for the lead of the Whitsun trophy today. The one pictured wasn't either of these but there were many present, it could well be genuine.
