Gutted...didnt get chance to read his whole thread, was that a dialynx convertion to make it a shorty?

Awesome noise...had a UR 20v turbo wide bodied coupe years back (when they werent worth as much!)...and its was brill...twist the knob locking it right up, and give the 5 banger some grief... 8) 8) 8)

Quattro heaven....1.50 as it dissapears into the trees...sound is orgasmic...might require a box of tissues for any unfortunate accidents :wink:
Check out the index thread below where pics/reviews from all our past meets can be found!!!!
click here for the SE Events Index/links Thread...see all the reviews and whats coming up soon!

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!
