I didn't notice the Citreon because of the girl
That's because Gunat Marek used to work for D-B!

My problem with the current SLK is it looks loke a 206cc with a Groucho Marx false nose, which is probably a bit anti-semitic.

To avoid confusion:

Euro-Accord (Acura TSX):



US Honda Accord/JDM Honda Inspire:



One is a three series and the other a five series, only not.

Back on topic

I saw a bloke in an A3 convertible on the M25 yeaterday. He was in his mid 40s and bald.

He looked a prize cock in it, and he knew it..... he looked embarassd to be driving it. I do hope it wasn't his.

The car looks weirdly unbalanced, even with the roof up.

"a fool and his money..........."

Anyone else think the new Titties look really crap too?

Although I didn't like the old one, it did have a certain symmetrical neatness to it.

The new one looks like a cobblers lath. Or just cobblers.
