Default Leaving the fold

After 6 happy months of mincing it up in the s2gay it is time to say bye bye to love of man hoop and join straight society again.

The car has taken me and the missus to the south of France and back, been faultless and thoroughly enjoyable but I started to find the cabin a bit cramped and my handshake had gone to limp for my liking.

So with prices as they are I went and bought a brand new VXR8 so its back to chevvy small blocks for me and farewall to the Toni & Guy lifestyle.

I've been amazed at just how good and flexible the engine is, mine is an 02 and 7 years on its still as tight and crisp as a 16 year old convent student, I was surprised at just how well it actually pulls out of vtec but I love long distance drivign holidays and despite the more than adequate comfort, the road and engine noise got a bit tiring.

Amusing post, Herr Doktor Freud!

Your fascination for indigo starfishes is not unnoticed; since you now have a Strine car, you can now use them to remove the crowns from your beer bottles!

Enjoy the bushmanmobile!

Gay, the S2000?!

I'd say a big blousy muscle car is probably more homosexual as it's trying so hard to be the big macho man, a bit like the leather clad bloke in the Village People videos!

But seriously, enjoy it mate! I wanted a Monaro in a previous life...
