ha ha thats it !!!! we used to listen to radio 2 at work and i had a mental image of ken bruce built up over the years, i imagined him as a sort of brian blessed looking guy big beard the lot, it turns out he is short and bold when i seen him on countdown yes i like watchin countdown when i can!!! that must make me sound old

[FarmerPug]

its hard to get a good image of radio presenters, unless they do tv work.

Whats wrong with the fake wood, its nice, the alternative to that is cheap ugly looking greasy plastics a common feature in the young persons car:

Theres nowt wrong with it tbh, some people look at it as stone age tho,
Bmw still as it so it must be classy to some,

ive only got 2 strips of the Fake wood in mine tbh it looks out of place -if it was on the doorcards it wouid blend in .im thinking of taking it off and spraying it or getting some of that metal look sticky stuff to cover it with,

i have it in all the places fake wood was available, all i could say to make it better would be to make it real.

18 and my first car was my 406, got some stick for it but at the end of the day my car was faster, better specced, more comfy, handled just as well as there cars and I was running it on cooking oil at 70ppl?

[FarmerPug]

my car got quite a bit of priase, it was the only one with leather seats for a start never mind the rest of the spec, and the torquey diesel is what made it much better than the small petrols.

The definition of an 'old mans car' needs revising to read: "anything cheap from Korea" they buy them by the shed load round here.

These days driving a 406 should be the sensible choice IMO, and as said before; those never having driven one know nothing.

[FarmerPug]

korea yes, hyundai have picked up where rover left off at making drab sh*t (bar the 75, and 800 but the smaller crap like 25, city rover and 45) But the kia meningitis is undeniably an old mans car a weak v6 with a power sapping auto, bad body roll and loads of understeer.
