Haha! we will i'm used to it me and a mate went out in mine for 5 hours finding black ice to drift on it was well funny ended up backwards a couple of times and also sideways witch involved a 100 point turn to get going again but if your not booting it you can get a good slide on at slow speed still

don't tell me you've binned the scooby?
or the 3?

DangerousBryan

come on ginge,out with it.what you done? 4wd is only better than 2wd when your accelerating,no better or maybe worse than 2wd when your braking

Ginge !

before, oh look at the snow, today is gonna be a laugh at work !!!






maybe not

Harris.

WHOOPS

Ginge !

ps: the front has actually been pulled forward,,, the bumper end where sticking out due to the middle of the bumper being a good 30cm's further back, i had to wrench it forward to get the rad out of the car, then drive the car home as if i got someone to tow me i wouldn have just gone in the back of them again

GOOD news is Autex have donated me a new radiator FOC and are sending it out to me, now i need to decide, carbon bonnet or another alloy,, facelift front bumper is going on and the body shop local to me is gonna sort the bodywork aslong as i supply the parts

do i use this as a reason to bin the AC ?

Harris.

Yeah bin it, it gets in the way .

Ginge !

so does fucking lamposts !!!!

Ginge !

wouldnt mind so much if it happened when i was drifting it, but it happened in a straight line,, THERE IS FUCK ALL YOU CAN DO IN A STRAIGHT LINE BUT HOPE THERES A CYCLIST IN THE WAY TO HELP SCRUB OFF SPEED,, THIS HAPPENED AT 15MPH TOPS, the car actually speeded up when it slide too the fucker

Harris.

Least your ok tho, the car can be fixed

Ginge !

yeah, still gonna cost me a grand to sort i recon, whats it even worth these days pmsl

Daviet

thats fooking shit ginge
if you do wnd up breaking it tho.has it got standard sti lights on the back? im after a set

Ginge !

i aint gonna break it tbh, the car is too much fun to drive

ive owned the car almost a year and the only thing ive had to do to it is buy a new rad

so spending a grand on it will be worth it, im gonna get all the little things touched up too and make it minter than mint, around christmas someone went into the back of me and wrecked the rear bumper aswell so im gonna get both ends sorted, im even gonna look at getting the P1 spoiler fitted finally if i get a carbon bonnet for it

Ginge !

ps: the ONLY downside is the fucking bonnet vent is untouched, so the missus wont let me change it as she and Elise LOVE the fucking thing

but you never know, it may still have damage done to it when i take a closer look

James

i have to confess i've been playing.

i never knew a dohc 4x4 estate could be described as "fun" with the additional bonus of so what if i ding it!

fatbloke racing

Discovery, empty rugby club carpark, second gear, 4 drift/slides need I say more!
Bad luck with the scooby by the way.......

James

disco half shafts are weak as fuck!

Ginge !

cant help the scooby, i was dicking around with it, but the slide on the ice is a fucker, the ABS was always kicking in aswell, maybe i should have walked to work pmsl

JohnnyB

A heavy car is the worsed I have had some morments, but I have learned over the years. I dab the brakes all the time testing the surface it gives you a clue how early to brake.

sometimes left foot braking and still got throttle on, hold the car striaght

Ginge !

that was the problem, the car WAS going straight, the road then ended and went to the right or left,,, the car wanted to go straight pmsl

i wasnt dicking about when it happened, i was going slow i just hit the compacted snow which was practically ice !

JohnnyB

I took the clio out today thought about taking the disco, but my brain kicked in, I will never stop the cunt. The clio with no abs was much better

fatbloke racing

Disco wasnt bad under normal driving just let the thing slow itself down, didnt have spin well though when I gave it some! Your right the shafts are weak but hey, dont get snow like this very often and the cossy is still not on the road!

jammy86

I saw one abandoned at the side of the road on the way to work this morning.
