I'm in Charlbury, and I noticed recently there's another steel grey coop on the way into the village, looks like a 16vt with aftermarket alloys.

My gf says 'i thought you said they were rare' sick

One day, someone will spot my car...

Two today, a yellow 20vt with an S plate coming from the Ascot/Bracknell direction on A322 towards Bagshot junction 3 M3 about 9.00 this morning and a red N plated 16v parked outside MWS on the Farnham Trading Estate around 12.30.


16VT and X1/9 1500 + e208 Peugeot

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
I even unplugged my own.

Must admit I had to look up Hill street <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

That's about a 5 minute walk from where I live. Head towards the parking for the Victoria Place shopping centre. Look for Goods Station Road on the opposite side to where the car park entrance is, and it's down there somewhere.

Good luck with the interview mate, although you'll be commuting the opposite way to everyone else <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Where are you based Joel? Im just next to Habitat in town. Sure I've seen your Coop parked up at Sainsburys a few months back..

Yeh, that was you then, saw you waiting there. No, afraid Im clock-watching until half 5 today! I'll have to keep a look out for you on Upper Grosv then, I'm often driving down there. Mine's an Ink Black, usually parked up in York Road or near the library somewhere (don't like parking right in the centre though <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> )

That was me then!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Exhaust is a PipeCraft SS system with De-cat!! I LOVE it. Speak to Rog at PowerFiat he'll give you a quote for one, £220 or £260 depending on de-cat or not, i think.
That accounts for most of the noise you experienced, that plus a K&N 57i, ihave other mods but that wouldn't make a diff to the sound!

Went to hose the coupe down today. Bumped into the green 20vt from Paddock Wood, Turns out it's Badger <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> . He's lost his password. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Bobbs/Scooby can you help him out <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

And a lorry was parked at the garage and these came out the back http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v89/adder58/db23d4c4.jpg There was also a carrera and 2 other racing 360's inside <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

The F40 then went off up the dual carriageway. The sounds was unbelievable <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />. I then followed, but afraid the new exhaust didn't have quite seem ring to it <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
