Went To Buy A Bike And Ended Up With This Instead!!

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by Nigel Machin, Jan 8, 2021.

  1. Bike now on the back burner until I find a job, we needed a more practical mode of transport initially and I’ve saved the expense of having to buy 2 new helmets (we bought jackets jeans and boots with us on the plane)
    Ordered a black rear spoiler to finish it off
    It even projects a pony on the floor when you open the door :)

  2. That’s not a pony ! More like a donkey if you ask me. :joy::joy:
    Only joking looks very nice and will certainly stand out in that burnt orange colour.
    Just start saving all over again for the bike.
    Enjoy the car and happy and safe motoring.

  8. That was my opener “me lord” I worked on the principal that the suitcases will fit in the boot (2 trips) when we move to a house and the fuel is cheaper over here :)

  13. For a 5l 460hp with 420 1b ft of torque I’m pleasantly surprised with the economy, can’t really give real world figures yet as only had it for a couple of days but still 1/2 tank of fuel. I’ve noticed at 60kmh it’s only running at just above tick over, I’m sure I’ll notice with a bit more of a spirited drive however. Fuel is only about 70p / litre though :)

  16. Now this is one field I show massive potential. There aren’t many. But I definitely have a flair for man maths... :imp:

  17. See hit the wall - hard!
     
  18. Me too. It’s the same magnificently flawed logic by which I’ve ended up with no less than 7 motorbikes (cos I need one for track, one for road, one dirt bike each for me and the boy plus a few projects) not a single one of which is currently rideable due to having insufficient time to stay on top of maintenance and MOTs etc :rolleyes:

  19. This is me in a rental in SF a couple of years back. Only the V6 but still what a car. Loved it :heart:
