Good offer huh, and I know you will take care of it and much as I hate to admit it you are a very good driver.

Bet you love it as soon as you have got used to the clutch!
When can you drop it off - I'd like to experience the FULL Porkie lifestyle (including the arrive and drive part ) ?

Please also extend this offer to your new GT2 - however, don't expect to be able to find where I've moved to .

if you have to ask then you should be made to walk everywhere. binliners are horrid looking. sure they go like shite off a highly polished shovel but they are sooooooo common. be different mate. spend money wisely on mods for the cossie. dont waste money on jap crap.

you can borrow my 1.6 megane if you like mate!

seriously though on the subject of borrowing cars i have to say to mike take the offer,im so glad my mate let us borrow his for the day and it was only to trax and back to essex but included some mild back road driving and even that made me realsie how good a car it is,standard wasnt quick enough for me but it was quick enough to get the idea and so comfy and easy to drive even in traffic.so if mike does take it im sure he will have a better experience than me as he can drive! i must admit it has to be a gtr though.

porkie,glad you had a good day,bet the ferrari werent giving it!

oh and i hope it werent a public road.
next time we see you at a meet we will stop and say hello a bit better!

how many people on here should be made to walk then,......PORKIE, ANDY ESCOS, STAVROS, DANNY@RADESIGNS, ME you all should be made to pull yourself along broken glass with your tongue as you actually own one

A good standard R32 GTR is fun, sharp, purposeful and very satisfying to drive on the long run, not much to criticise owning one except for insurance hunting and puting up the usual anti-jap rhetoric from Ford and Vauxhall fanboys who are afriad of it because its "different" to usual bread and butter cars they fed.

Ignore the ultimate stereo-type that Skylines do all the work for you, that is total BS, they are RWD unless you really provoke it, and even so, they can still oversteer.

If you can save up a little bit more, then the rare V-spec is the one to have. Brembo brakes, BBS alloys, revised 4WD system.
