Default Upset Lambo Owner

Sitting on M25 in traffic and then this Lambo owner pulled beside me lm sure they was having a laugh

Anyway when the traffic cleared he found out what a 17 year old cossie was all about, so wiped the smile of his face and put a smile on mine.



Really forgot how much fun can be had out of a 500bhp Escos and even better now with out the boost leak



Also on Sat went over to Jamsport to meet Matt, anyway Finley jumped in the passenger set and we well and truly see of a 600cc bike, Finley loved it been one of my best passengers


So glad to have a fast car again!!

Fixit boxes are good but the customer service can be a bit slow.

have you ever thought that they may have not been discussing your Escort and were actually laughing about something else?

if they were laughing at you (which they weren't I bet!!!) it would NOT be because of your car. It would be because of the boy racer attitude...

I can so tell when someone wants to race me and has fast car. They virtually foam at the mouth with anger and excitement....

Most Lambo owners are car fans, and 99% of car fans are Escort cosworth fans.


and on the rare occasion that a supercar owner does get trounced, it doesnt put 'wipe the smile of their face' it makes them smile!!!! they think wow! look at that car go!



what Lambo was it out of interest?

Glad you are enjoying the Escort though. Bet its awesome.

I could have put money on there being at least one comment like that lol.

I think its great fun racing and beating much more expensive cars, yes its childish but its still great fun, it kind of justifies spending loads of money on an old car lol!!

Do ppl think that supercar owners just passed their test and jumped in a 60k + car, most that have these cars are enthusiasts, and started out in cossie's, evo's etc so will know exactly what they are capable of so i wouldn't think it came as that much of a surprise tbh.
The only surprise the lambo owner prob had was that he didnt see you again, bonnet up 2 miles down the road

and i'd honestly say your more likely to shock a chav/chavette in a 15 year old impreza that they bought with a 'claimed 500bhp' and think they've got the fastest thing since usain bolt on wheels than a supercar owner.

Then again, it could have been a young footballer with more money than he knows what to do with and hasn't got a clue what an Escort Cosworth is.

not really. would cost an easy Ł35k+ to build a Cosworth like Daves.

and an early Gallardo starts at Ł55k

Know what I would rather be sitting in

Bang on, I used to think that people were laughing at me, until the wife said "do you actually think you're that important to them?"

All sorted then Dave, when we going to have a play together!

Totally agreed on that one, its those sorts that I most liked racing in my nova, 9/10 times if you do meet a supercar they arent up for thrashing the living shit out of their expensive pride and joy just to try and prove a pointless point anyway, but the 19 year old in 2K of imprezza brigade are always up for a race and always think they are going to win

Which skyline box?

The standard ones are all normal synchro helical boxes, but there are aftermarket bog boxes available.

If I ever 4wd my 3 door I'll use a standard skyline box with a modified bell housing to do so, like lloyd did in his mk3 cosworth.

Cheers for calling me a cock that was certainly mature of you. I hope you'll agree that the lambo owner would definitely have a huge smile on his face thinking of his bank balance and probable success in his life which resulted in him being able to afford a proper car in the first place.
