Do you drive a banger of a car?

I'm more shocked that someone not only likes tinned custard, they like the evening standard as well.

Just popping out to my local church to get baptised as I have been converted and have seen "God" with my own eyes. Praise the Yaris/Honda and I believe in the holy trinity so throw in an M3. Amen.

I don't have an M3 and never did. I have access to a 330i M Sport (N53 272P engine) with BMW Performance Exhaust and Performance Intake that has been tuned to ~285HP. The car's tires has recently been changed to Michelin Pilot Sport 2 all round and I've had a chance to test drive it after the Bridgestone Potenza Run flats and wow what a difference, it really handles like it's on rails and the acceleration is very very deceptively quick. I'll be happy to do a custard test for this car but its not mine so what's the point.

The A3 and Accord are registered under my name (the Yaris is registered to my partner's name) but I drive all three.

I bought the custard for the purpose of this test only. As for the newspaper, it was between this or the Metro. I take the London Underground to work everyday and these newspapers are always readily available at the stations.

The picture looks badly Photoshopped to me. The tin of custard looks particularly badly done.

Irritating as it may be for me, I'm afraid I have to disagree. The ES is the right date, the cars are correct, and the custard is indeed a current stock item with the correct label.


I think we're going to have to accept the Accord may be a real car.


I think we can discount the Yaris now as it's in partner's name.

Oh for the love of God.


Seriously fella - NOBODY CARES about your friend's mother's aunt's brother's dog's BMW's tyres or air intake.


I mean, really, quite literally nobody cares about it. If you want to talk !!!! about BMWs, go to a BMW-lovers' forum. This isn't the place.


Have you considered why people want you to do all these stupid tests? If you'd just come here and not told fantastical lies about so many things, none of which will impress anyone anyway, you'd probably have been able to integrate with the forum.


As it stands, you're just a joke. A laughing stock. It's clear you have issues with interacting socially with people. The fact that you misread my suggestion to meet for a coffee (suggested to call your bluff so I could confirm your car was real, and nothing more than that, I'll add) as an opportunity to suggest we meet and 'check out each others' Accords' amply demonstrates that.


I genuinely cannot understand what your problems are - whether you're genuinely mentally ill or just an idiot, I'm not sure - but you're inexplicably being allowed by MSE's (particularly and spectacularly ineffectual) moderators to stay here without being PPR'd again.


Your being registered here and continuing to troll the boards with your senseless drivel breaches so many of the forum rules as for it to be laughable that you're still here.


May I suggest, as I have done in the past, that you post a thread asking for an amnesty on your lies. If you were just to honestly and with integrity admit (and actually mean it) to what you've done, and if you were to actually start contributing meaningfully rather than wasting everyone's time, you may just find that you are eventually accepted.


I'm sure everyone on the board would happily accept you into the membership if you would just be honest, change your attitude and approach, and for want of a better phrase, grow the f??k up.


Were you to do so, it would mean leaving behind the other AEs like liltzero. You might just find that meaningful engagement actually leads to a slightly more fulfilling board-membership experience than the constant cycle of troll-PPR-reregister-troll.


If you can't do that, I'm sure everyone will delight in continuing to report your posts until MSE actually bother to read some of the reports and take action against you.

I have never been active on this forum with more than one alias. "liltzero" is not me. I am being honest with the cars I own - but fine, I'll stop the BMW drivel.

There you go again. Liltzero was unmasked as you days after that AE was created and the threads were deleted, so I'm afraid I don't believe you, unless you've got so famous you have your own disciples now.


The point is though, it's NOT JUST the BMW drivel. It's all the crap about tuning your Accord, 'what car should my imaginary 17yo child buy from this list of inappropriate cars', 'I loaned 15K for a wedding to an imaginary friend', 'why do people buy fancy cars', and 'look at my clever imaginary scam for free insurance' and the rest of it.


Until you stop with that, and the uninformed, ill-thought-out opinions delivered with an air of certainty (many of which are wrong, but go uncorrected because no one can be bothered wasting their time any more), you will always be a joke.
