Lucy,
I want you to phone the Psychiatric Hotline...
* If you are Obsessive-Compulsive, please press 1, repeatedly.
* If you are co-dependent, please ask someone to press 2.
* If you have multiple personalities, please press 3, 4, 5 and 6.
* If you are paranoid-delusional, we know who you are and what you want. Just stay on the line until we trace the call.
* If you are schizophrenic, listen carefully and a little voice will tell you what to do next.
* If you are manic-depressive, it doesn't matter which number you press. No-one will answer.
* If you are paranoid, the thing you are holding to your ear is armed and ready to blow.
* If you are Oedipal, your mother would like to speak with you - please stay on the line.Comment

But... but...Originally posted by LucyIt's my third elise and have never broken down.
I did have an Aero 900 Turbo once and that was another story.
Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious!!!
One of my freinds got his TVR Tuscan back after and engine rebuild on 5th November. He drove all the way from Cornwall to Reading with the roof off. OK so he had to stop 30 mins in to get his coat and wooley hat out, and then an hour later to put on another layer of clothes... But when he got there he had the biggest of grins on his face, as did all of us as we had a look and a listen to the nice meaty roar it was putting out

No but some of the surrounding villages out in the countryside are very nice. Shame they are so damn expensive though. I can't afford to live thereOriginally posted by ForumboreI didnt think Reading was that nice a place

Toured Europe in mine - fantastic. The ability to overtake a convey of Romanian truck drivers on the twistys was magic, as was looking in my rear view mirror at the fanbase of polskis and trabants that tried to emulate us.Originally posted by ArdescoOne of my freinds got his TVR Tuscan back after and engine rebuild on 5th November.

Flooring it in one of those Swiss tunnels was great... the noise, the noise... the plethora of indicators as other drivers wondered who let the banshees out behind them....
Getting pulled over by the border police only to be told that they just wanted to watch and hear me to do a full standing quarter mile sprint...
Worse thing was coming back to Dover. As soon as we left the ferry the middle lane hogging, aggressive driving and tailgating was so depressing...If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.Comment

1/ the person who said the s2000 has as much torque as a 1.6 is wrong, it has as much torque as a 2.2 litre BMW, anyway you work the gearbox to get the power, if you cruise just below Vtec, not many cars will keep up. Not many under 40k plus anyway.
2/ It's a very fast car
3/ be carefull in the wet on roundabouts, it has no traction control, you will spin it if you are not careful
4/ it's the most powerful non turbo 2 litre petrol engine in the world.
5/ it's a very good motorway car, the seats are fantastic
6/ it's the best sports car in it's class, it will eat porsche boxsters or BMW z4s
0-60 comes up in 5.6 seconds, be careful when you put the power on
PS don't Vtec for 1st 1000 milesLast edited by Bagpuss; 24 November 2006, 15:57.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
