I actually can't believe what I did as well. I refitted my 17's on the back after blowing them up at xmas. Looked at the car and thought it just had to be washed. Its probably the dirtiest car I've seen in ages. You couldn't differentiate the black strip on the rear bumper from the red. It was all black. It hadn't been washed since September a few weeks before the smash. Anyway 2 buckets later and its clean.
This aerial shot taken space doesn't really show quite how dirty the old cow was:

If you wanting a door mail me Martin, i have two both driver sides in red.

Well i whipped a vfr motorbike this morning with no problems and am currently changing into 5th gear at somewhere between 140-150mph. Ive had it right off the clock this evening with no troubles at all. Im loving it too bits.Im just waiting for there to be some rain

. Im taking it round Dunsfold friday afternoon(where top gear use btw) which should be great too. I wish i still had my video fone...

Doubt anyone on here would ever be able to whip a motorbike

Even the VFR400 would be about 300bhp per ton.

it was a vfr400 and it wasnt from a standing start it was coming off a duel carriageway roundabout and yes i did beat it and he was riding it flat out. ....

I fitted the Horsahm developments stage2 chip recently too.it feels to have a lot more torque behind it now and my fuelling is definalty better. Rolling Road not this weekend but next weekend i think

i will be be weighing my car and weighing each corner independantly aswell before then so i will be able to give you my bhp per tonne soon. I should think my car weighs a bit more than standard though due to the electric leather recaro seats and the spoilers and extra bits in the engine bay....And general Dirt and grime

too be fare, a good modded turbo car will see most bikes up to 400cc, i know, raced enuff to confirm.

thing with bikes is there an engine on wheels, power to weight is excelent.. standing starts always hard to beat..

however..

get these w@nkers on a rolling start, say 50mph.. both gun it, & theres very LITTLE difference between them, even larger cc's stuff. when the turbo comes to boost & your set-up is sweet.. get sweating biker buoy

a good modded S12 can & will woop bikes. beleve me.

theres a few scarred bikers living near me i'll tell you. was even approached by one 4 weeks ago asking 'what the hell do you have under the bonnet of this', 'ant ' 'ad owt that quick keep near me in a while...

my reply was, 'only tickled the throttle',.. he wont happy with that realy..!
