Just bought a new toy, can you guess what my other hobby is? ...
NickG:
True, I'd be more worried about all the other idiot drivers on the road that don't see you. The performance vs money is very tempting but it'd cause massive arguments with the wife, mum & dad from a safety point of view!
Know quite a few keen bikers though - sounds great fun.

Hi Nick,
I believe there are statistics that show that a motorcycle in the right hands is the safest vehicle on the road. And for those who wonder whose are the "right hands", well UK Met Police motorcyclists, of course. To qualify "safest", the number of accidents per mile, or to be pedantic thousands of miles or even tens of thousands. Big white fairings and drivers knowing that there is a policeman behind it might cause other road users to be more careful, but there is nothing to stop you buying a big white fairing, too.
Ned
PS you might have guessed I fit on a bike more easily than I fit in a teeny-weeny little plastic sports car, doesn't stop me wanting one, though.

That looks like a nice toy that you have there. Every man should have something like that. I noticed that in the first picture the car is backward with the steering on the right hand side. :doh:
I am enclosing a picture of it the way it should have been build with normal left hand steering. :lol: :lol:
Hope you like it. Be Safe.
Cheers :beer:

I'd never get used to the left foot accelerator and right foot brake and clutch on your version, Don. Not to mention all the dials working the wrong way round :D

Good point Ned!
A guy at work is into his bikes, has a Triumph Speed Triple or something but is after a Daytona - I suggested a 675 as my mate has one but he said that he'd look like donkey kong on mario Kart if he got one of those!
Don ..noooo, what have you done to my car ? :doh: :lol:
It's brilliant so far, noisy,rattley and shakey but a driving experience like no other - except for a lotus elise, exige, caterham etc!
:lol: Nice 1 Andy!
