Three middle aged me dicking around in a car has no right to be so entertaining

When I was young and naive we thought that swapping out a bag of weasels for a bag of ferrets would be a quick weekend job. It took us three weekends and help from my friends dad before we could get them to run right.

Whoa now, lets face it, that thing is pretty horrible to look at. I mean, look at the white siding of the building that is right behind it. I can barely see any of the white siding, for the white trailer parked in the way.

Dude, if you’re at work with three tabs open:

So, not his kids then? What sort of parent lets a flacid knobgobbler, like this fucking muppet, take their kids out in a Lambo...knowing fine that they won’t be properly restrained?

I went round to visit a friend one day and found him in his garage, welding some new metal into the boot/trunk of his car. Pretty much immediately I noticed the petrol/gas tank was still attached to the car...the fcukwit hadn’t even emptied the bloody thing.

I just did a quick Google and came across a number of different results, most saying 2.8 though.

I spotted a BMW M3 swap on the old TR6...

Chris Harris (Small guy, black hair, receeding hairline) or Chris Evans (Tall guy, ginger hair and glasses)?

On a totally unrelated note: I was once in a Vauxhall Cavalier Mk2 driven by a friends father while running late to a karate competition. We never made it as he punched the front struts through their mountings after hitting a rise in the road, gaining a few feet of air, and then crashing down like a bag full of 1930's

Back in the 60's my mum took my dads MGB to the hairdressers and came out to find it was stolen. After a call to my dad, and all the relevant details being passed to the police, she took the subway home.

One of my parents neighbors had one decked out to look like a Bentley. New front end with the wire grill, dual headlights and chin spoiler. It made me do a double take the first time I saw it on their driveway.

Certainly in this photo, from the rear pillars backwards, it looks like a 300. I’m not sure it looks good either, however I would LOVE to see one rolling down the road. It’s different, it has presence, and it’s definitely gonna be a pain in the ass to park!

I know someone else who had this problem with a Prelude. There were 2 different AT gearboxes and one of them was as rare as rockinghorse poop?

His ability to nip away at the rear bumper of cars has had me on my seat on so many different occasions. He has brought, and maintained, a level of excitement that no other driver is capable of delivering at the moment.

Now playing

I think he actaully won his first race car in a competition. I think in EVO magazine, where he used to write, he did a piece on it where he told the story, complete with his original car back in his garage.

The other race car driver? You mean Jason Plato? (Smaller guy, bigger nose) - You should stick his name into YouTube and enjoy the utter carnage he has been causing in the British Touring Car Championship. I think last time I checked the video series of his ‘Shunts/incidents’ was on it 4th or 5th segment.

They’d just got the car running again/completed the upgrade/replaced something and decided to celebrate in a ridiculous manner, while completely ignoring the long list of things that still needed to be completed.

That was great. Wish there was more information on who they were and what the guy behind was driving.
