I wanted a copy of Fast Ford (top mag this month chaps and nice to see Max's car in readers rides ). I figured I would take Noo to rack some miles up towards the running in.

A Punto GT pulled up as I was going back to the car and the lad (not chavvy at all) asks me if it was a turbo or not. We got chatting and he says he's seen the car about and wondered why I didn't have a DV on it car as they give 30bhp straight off.

I explained to the lad what a DV was and how it worked and he looked a bit miffed as it appears the E-bay advert he got it from told him porkies.

Nice lad and a nice little Punto as well, felt a bit sorry for him really.
