It's taxed, MOT'd and insured...

[Ali Wiseman]

So You're all in trouble now...

I do still need to get the full license back, but now that insurance is down to a sane price, I should be out and about more, providing I can find willing vict... sorry... volunteers, to endure the passenger seat from hell while I inflict myself upon the roads of the UK again.

Anyone laughing at a 6'3" bloke getting out of a pokey little 1L Suzuki in puke yellow, will get to find out if the engine is powerful enough to run over their prostrate body... a few times...  :evil:  :whistle:

[Danny Sutton]

top stuff Mate, about time too..

[Ali Wiseman]

Indeed it is, but Insurance quotes were fucking insane until this year. Anything bigger is still batshit crazy, so I'm hoping a year in this will bring them down.

As it is, the engine is sweet enough for what it is, and if the colour really pisses me off, my mate owns a bodyshop. Worringly, I have found out that apparently, the Swift (G13B?) engine drops straight in....  :evil:

It stands me at £245 all in though, so I suppose I can't bitch too much though.

[Danny Sutton]

not worth painting or putting an engine in, just drive it till it dies, that's why I got the mazda, park it anywhere and just drive it till it dies.

[Ali Wiseman]

You're totally right... but I love to tinker, so although I won't do anything with it that won't add value if I sell it, I do like to see what could be done.

It is getting a decent light put in the boot for getting changed though. Imagine the surprise on if I sell it on, and the new owner get's a face full of Cree XM-L when they open the boot.

[Anthony Britner]

if your putting one of those LED's in the boot are you going to leave the boot open to use it as a reversing light

1000lumen spotlight for getting naked at the back of your car? - you going caving or dogging fella?? haha

[Ali Wiseman]

I'm not after dogging, but caving? That's for perverts!  :whistle:  :evil:  

Mine exploring, now that's sensible  

[Ali Wiseman]

So, I cleaned it. It looks merely awful, rather than fucking awful now. Many flies lost the valiant battle with the bumper.  

[Tony Salusbury]

After a few caving trips it will be back to 'fcuking awful' ;-). I don't even bother washing mine now coz every Thursday its caked in more cack.

[Ali Wiseman]

I honestly doubt it's ever been properly washed in all it's 13 years. I suspect trips will upgrade it to Minging rather than fucking awful...

I was worried the dirt was holding bits together though.

[Tony Salusbury]

This thread reminds me of something...................................... :woohoo:

I'm just setting up the new PC, when it's done, that picture is so getting photoshopped (badly)

[Ali Wiseman]

I demand Chariot Spikes on the Wheels!

And flamethrowers... maybe a machine gun... Auto-tracking Radar that detects Empire Builders?  :evil:  :whistle:
