Your fave BS stories....
I think my fave one was the guy in the pub car park with his XR3i,
Me:"Thats quote tidy, how long you had that?"
Him:"Yeah man I got it last year."
Me: "So have you done anything to it?"
Him: "Yeah man, loads, got it up to 300bhp!"
.....
Me: "er.... 300bhp."
Him:"Yeah man, its fuggin well rapid!"
Me:"So what ya done to get it to 300bhp?"
Him:"Well its got a zorst, filter, chip, cossie head on it....
and he went on for about 5 mins like this talking utter shite untill I got bored and said,
Me: "So with all that power you must have changed the box on it, what one are you using the BS3453 box?
Him:"Yeah yeah man I got that one!"
Me:"Well thats interesting, cus I just made it up...."

Funniest one was my mate with his really tuned up Rover 620Ti, He kept telling me it would roast my shitty RS Turbo. He then got made to look like a total dick when the missus beat him in her XR2i

What steve was trying to say (and I was there when his mate was bosting about this to) is that this guy was going on about "My car is so modded to the tits it will kill yours."
Infact it turned out to be a piece of shite with a dump valve

Mine has to be this joker i was arguing with on a minimoto forum!!
I posted about my stage 1 NMS cossy and its 290 bhp.......
Shortly after i went to Karl for the Stg 3 + stuff so i posted on there for somthing to do...
Anyway this dude basicly told me i was talking shit and no cossy can go over 400 bhp without blowing up every fives mins, ive had it out with him afew times now.
Aparently if i knew anything about cossys id know the reyland escort is the fastest cossy ever and there is no way i could go from 290 bhp to allmost 350 without an engine re-build.
Aparently us cossy owners are very good at making out our cars have big bhp when really we have flock all!!!
I want to smash his face in if im honest, he talks utter crap

Went with my daughter to a car showroom in my Cossie. The attendant noticed my car & said that he once owned the Cossie that had made 585bhp at the wheels & appeared in a mag as the fastest Cossie , went off the clock real easy. When i asked a few more questions it had a T4 & 4 Greys, standard box & Diff, when i told him that it was unlikely to make more than 400 at the fly he said that he had sold the proof of Power with the car & i didnt know what i was on about. No point in argueing cos he believed it big time. The Sports car we went to look at was nice, but we didnt buy it .

Years ago I sat and listened as the barman of the pub we were in (pulled up in my mates new ish Gsi Cavalier) driveling on about his 1.8 16valve Belmont (no such thing!) that did 150 mph and regularly went off the clock!
Some people are too stupid to bother arguing with!
If anyone asks me what I drive - i just reply "an old sierra!" and they leave me alone!!

Nail bang on the head

I used to have one of these about 2 years back and they're quite rapid to be fair. I mean they do come with 200Bhp as standard. But to be beaten by a 2i means he must have really abused that example up! Mine was standard but a well looked after example, and for that it could stay up with quite a few things.
However, as it was my 1st turbo'd car i kicked the shit out of it to such an extent where i went through 2 engines in as many weeks! But then that break up from the missus really didnt help!!!

Oh ......... and the best 1 i used to get about my 620Ti is from a pratt down the road who "knows everything about everything" ....... well apparently there's no such thing as a Ti according to him, Rover only made the TDi engine.
Prolly funnier than that was the fact that he stuck to this claim even AFTER seeing my engine!!! FFS!

why is it every time someone comes over to chat about your cossie, be it in a petrol station/car park/pub etc, they ALL know MORE about your car than you do, and they ALL have got mates/uncles/work colegues who have had/got an RS 500 that runs 500BHP??? I think there must be about 67,000 RS 500s in the country
Oh and a completly random story, I had to work a few weekends ago at the RAF cosford air show, as I was doing a course there at the time. So, we sat in our tent watching the airshowm, helping dozy punters to find thier kids/ car etc and these 4 girls come walking past, chatting away. Girl one goes to her mate "so how do those gliders work then, as they havn't got engines??" her mate replys, "I'm not sure really, but I do know they rely on thier wings "
NO SHIT SHERLOCK (and yes, belive it or not she WAS blonde

imagine this, Me and Ian Howells (Racetek) are stood chatting at Santa Pod with our Escort Cossies beside us, geezer(we'll call him Terry) and his young lad come over
Terry "What is it, a V8?"
me, "No mate, it's an Escort Cosworth"
Terry"What is it, front wheel drive? My Escort convertible gonna be rear wheel drive"
Little lad "That's better for burn outs int it Dad"
Terry"Yes son"
me "hmmmmm"
Ian " "
Little lad "You've got a dump valve havent you dad"
Terry"Yes son, and one day we're gonna have a turbo fitted too"
I kid you not, It was embarrassing to be there, then off they went , not even bothered to look at £80k+ worth of Escort Cossies,
Child abuse.
