them:"nice car mate"

me:"cheers"

them:"is it fast?"

me:" yeah its ok"

them:"what is it?"



bloody kids nowdays.had to explain to them that when i was young it was the car to have,basically its my generations evo/skyline.

Some kids just need something/someone like you to guide them in their life. Where i am they get bored so easy, just allow them to help with the washing of the car and before you know it they ask about all sorts of things. I'm all up for keeping them off the streets and out of trouble and sometimes just giving them the opportunity and trust to help out can steer them in the right direction.

mate i would say that 70% of the users on this forum was a little shite when they was younger,,,,,, when i talk to some people who are successfull and hear what they USED to be like,,,,,,, well it shows that being a shit can condition you for the future IMO

theres some people on here you would give your car keys too who when they was younger wouldnt need em if they wanted to test drive it

NEVER condem a man,,,, i truly belive this !

I used to be a little bit of a sod when i was younger but i believe that i have turned out ok due to the fact that i was given the oppurtunity and chances to allow me to become more respectfull and decent.

I was approaching some traffic lights in my mk3 escort cabriolet when a scooby came and sat beside me at the lights. A gang of yoofs and a few birds walked past, i had the roof down and i was daydreaming when one of them shouts:

"Here mate, i would rather have your car than that scooby, your car is seriously retro!"
