I have an old "which" report about tires, and expensive ones like yoko's came out well for some sizes, but were blown to hell by cheap "hankook" tires for others.

No to be honest my ibiza ones lost their shine too...makes me feel kinda bad with the boy racer comment - Tho I'd defy anyone to come and look at my ibiza and tell me it doesn't look good, if, admittedly, rusty.

Nothing like a really old pair of tires to grip in the dry!!
Proxies are very good though, and cheap for 15" too.

Like dragon, footaball supporting confuses me.

I wonder if a spray of light-unit tinting laquer would help, did that to my black Ibiza and it looked great.

Gimle, glad you had fun! I think i should remember that even relationships that appear natural and effortless take work and can be fragile. Martin, I think i do as you have done in that i do anything to avoid saying negative things or critisisms to a g/f. I think maybe that makes me easier to walk o...

I've always modded my cars a little, but the 480 doesn't need it, thats its beauty! I have a set of OZ alloys, but i like the volvo ones so why bother, and i've considered boost controllers, but i had a 23yr old friend close to tears the other day.... :cryhard:

That is saddly true....i found out early in my dating exploits though, that acting too keen gets you dumped, so now i get shouted at for not ringing often enough. - Usually the only way to combat this is to think of something the g/f has done to me that i have't complained about, then pretend to be ...

My side badges were removed along with the turbo from the rear when new. The 480 by itself looks fine when you are used to it.

Thats it, the metro has been e-mailed to all of my friends!

At least the honda was funny, think the owners from some of kirsty's pix actually think they are cool.

its the automotive version of sticking your trouserlegs into your socks... townies think its cool, we KNOW it isn't.

Calm down!! Remember, as men we must pretend we aren't interested, therefore reducing the power they have over us.
