Very. I read all of his books when I got here, it near killed my brain trying to 'read' Scottylandish... or maybe that was the discobiscuits.

Anyways, did you here that "Filth" is hitting the cinemas soon, looks very, very good.

This is the NSFW version that will require a google login...


This is the 'clean' version.

That does look good. Definitely going to see that. No way I'll get my wife to watch it with me, though.

No, he's angry enough as he is. I bought him a Jack-in-the-box yesterday, he refuses to wait for the cranking tune, he just starts ripping the lid off and then yanks that hermit out of his box like a deranged debit collector after his commission.

I will go the full hog, even if i do end up not getting the damage paid for, i will at least have the comfort knowing that a judgement has been made.

It is a great car cannot compare it to the RS6 though, totally different power level, and the cornering of it is something else, i thought i would miss the miltek of the V8 rumble, the GTR it is not so much rumble on tick over, but when on full chant sounds like a F1 racer, i do not think i will ever find the limits of it, but still trying though.

Hope you get this sorted out.
At best, this is terrible customer service, but this bloke sounds like a complete tool and doesn't deserve to be running a business dealing with expensive cars.

On a different note, I spotted a GTR heading into town along Hotwells Rd earlier this week. Hot day (might have been Tuesday), windows open. Car looked awesome but was crawling along in the rush-hour afternoon traffic, so didn't get the pleasure of hearing it on full-chat!
Might have been you?

I was on my bike (pedal-variety) so would have looked a nupty if I gave a thumbs-up!
