Apologies for probing your bucket earlier, I will divulge no more of the horrors contained inside.......

They are an odd bunch on here but full of knowledge and the mostly well meaning humour helps distract from the weekly 'what tyre thread'.

FYI a c6 rs6 is only 500kgs heavier than a 997 turbo. Not 1000kgs+ as you elude to. ;)

Do you track any of your cars?
Only 500 kg and some optional extras, please mate know when you are beat!!

And all this time I thought you guys knew it all!

I feel cheated now.

And inadequate with my meagre 380bhp...... sob.

What horrors....!!

By the way I'm a winner A few mates bet me once I got the RS4 that I could not make a 5 page post within my first few days of joining...I have won 20 quid.

It's been educational though some good some bad. It's seems like the forums has some Heros an villains and some followers as such.

Looking forward to the ownership and a meet!!

Your mates don't come here much then... Most times you'll be lucky to get a straight answer before page 8. And off topic by the end of the 1st page.

Not having that after my victory!!

Anyway my RS4 embossed mats turned up today, perfect fit and look stunning, very pleased. Boot spoiler turner up as well, I'll fit that in better weather, to the biker as well, I kid you not the bike frame I have been looking for and searching for, for some 6 years turned up today. So I'm on a high!!

Yea I'm on drugs.

Once it's built I'll Pm you, to be honest it's more of an investment than something you can ride, it's a work of art.

Cool,

Admitting you have a problem is the first step. I have been fine since I weaned myself off the crystal meth....

It is nice when you find a frame you have been looking ages for.

I always wanted a Cove STD Mk2 but never ever found one in the U.K.

Went to Whistler in September and stopped in at Cove's Shop on the drive up and there she was, a medium STD in white (my colour of choice) up on the wall. Last one they had.

Was still there a week later when we stopped in on our way to the North Shore so I bought it.

Best handling frame I have ever had. Not the lightest, newest or best looking but I will never sell it, she is a keeper.

Bit like my RS4, old, heavy and not really that fast by todays standards but the car has so much character I will never sell it either.

I have an Orange Big-T and a
San Andreas Mountain Cycle tucked away at my folks.

Would love an E46 M3 CS but could never find a manual let alone a good manual!

Now back on topic.

Yankee lanterns.

Get onto Trups on here to sort out any lighting needs. If you're anywhere near Wellingborough, you can get the headlights sorted at his while you wait. If not, he might be able to do something on exchange.
