Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

For proper off roading, i've always had a soft spot for these little guys:

if i wanted fibre glass a 6 cyl i'd buy a tvr

Michael, Im on dial up... your pix is a bit small, could you enlarge it plz? :p

Sorry couldn't find a bigger one, here's a smilar one at a smaller size though =P

You've gotta love them:

As you can see X5/Cayenne isn't the first thing that pops into my head when I think off-roader =P

meh, ls1 5.7 rock hopper

I had a Smart Convertable for a while, it was great fun to drive, and you can take the whole roof off, although you had to pack it into the boot.

Wasn't quite this bling tho!

Jesus!!! An LS1 in one of those things?! I'm sure that'd be... interesting to drive =P

Duncan, was it one of the Smart Roadsters or one of those FourTwos? I love those little Roadsters, think they'd be great fun.

yep crzy!

Regular Smart convertable, but fun none the less.

Giant paper mache coin on the back of a smart car :)

Goes to show the measures they took to try and sort out the handling =P

Fantastic pic, and great pic too, which unfortunately I can't take credit for =P

Really wish I could go on this!

Check out this beast.

wxwsh, If you get off my thread now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

You better that that seriously, wxwsh. He won't be wearing trousers or long sleeves, either. Take your pick.

I bet wxwsh hates cars with a passion. ;)

(Not trying to give anyone else any reasons to go after them, of course.)

Epic fail on my part, meant to post that in the F1 thread =P

@ Mr Mc. Thought you were talking about my daughters model. She'd look at you all cute, with her big blue eyes, then, when you relax your guard she would rip you limb from limb.
However I think you were talking about something else, so relax you're safe.

Haha i'm that much of an ass, those spammers were on the thread but VB deleted all their posts so now it looks like I was just shouting at thin air =P

I hope I haven't incurred the wrath of your daughter, tell her to keep up with the car designing!

wow...Ive never heard you so aggressive Michael, knowing how gentle you are...made me giggle :p

( got held up last night on the telefona- very rude, sowry :(
