I see that red civic with the black boot all the time in Winnall after work. Really poor job on the rear end in my opinion.

I still maintain it looks like it's been wrapped by cheap wrapping paper from POUNDLAND!.

 

If anyone says I said John Lewis paper they're a fibber :p

I don't remember seeing anyone lift their bonnet but the owner of the black Aston Martin left the keys in the ignition and engine running for quite a while and was no where to be seen!

I drove past on Sunday afternoon and there was some kind of meet going on in the grassed area. Lots of youngsters with Civics etc. Saw an unmarked 14 plate black Octavia vRS (not the new shape) on the A3, it was behind me from Petersfield to Waterlooville. People were flying past completely oblivious but the copper didn't react to any, just maintained his steady 65mph. Also saw a very plan looking grey 320d unmarked the other day, thought this was a little odd as they tend to be 330 or 335d's I thought.

There is nothing exciting to see under the bonnet of a Noble ( I used to work for McLaren so have seen many a supercar ) There just a 2 Litre ford Zetec Lump with a Turbo stuck on them, Sadly under the bonnet does not live upto the Leicstershire barn creations exterior looks!! :no:

[sigarland1987]

I thought the Noble Lump was the 3.0 V6 out of the ST220??

It is, with turbos.

[tamiyaandy]

All depends which one, last one i was in had a 2Litre lump, was a few years ago to be fair....

[tamiyaandy]

Either way its a Ford Engine.....

[austenw90]

Parkers suggest the M12 had a 2.5 but this was superseded by a 3.0.

[themanwithnoaim]

In short, nobody really knows, guess it'll have to be the Ultima then !

[tamiyaandy]

I think Austin is right with the 2.5, Just remember spending 2 days with the car in the shop ( measuring everything, pictures and stuff ) as it was the same time they were looking to launch the MP4-12C.

 

Got to the part of opening the engine hood thinking " Hmm V8? maybe a V10"

 

WHATTTTTT!!!! A bloody old ford Lump!!!!

 

LOL

[sigarland1987]

It is a bit of a let down

[BJB540]

It is a bit of a let down

 

Is it a Kia Rio or Nissan Micra C+C?

[tamiyaandy]

Lol, I think it will be the lure of a Matiz!!

The bigger decision is "do I go Daewoo or Chevrolet" !!

Has to be the Daewoo. No hiding cheap Korean cars behind an American brand.

Daewoo make fridges and other appliances as well so they must be good

In reality though the Matiz is not much different from the Dacia or Hyundai i10's of this decade.

Oh Hyundai all the way, I am slightly confused where this conversation has gone?
