    Diesel? it sounds like youve retired before youve begun at life.

    OMG you mean you didnt go to cambridge, thats so chavvy.

    Aye, diesel is brilliant. It means I have more money to spend on other things!

    Just how much money do you waste filling up your penis extension every week?

    Nope. Went to Manchester. Got a first in Maths and Computer Science. You learn everything you know from the Daily Sport and Max Power magazine?

    Yep. They are for people who can't afford a Porsche 911 - i.e. a proper one! In the same way a BMW Z4 is designed for those who can't afford a 'proper BMW'. Same goes for Audi TT's.

    All of these cars are pretty much designed for those entering a mid-life-crisis , to make them feel like they have actually achieved something ;)

    Sorry for being OT.
  • I agree, nothing more wrong with the world then a porker powered by a hairdryer.

  • oi you !!!!!!!s!!!! :) I own an impreza and I'm not a chav. Some of us upstanding community members like the thrill of a fast car too. Can't ley the chavs have all the fun eh. And as i only live 5 miles to work, fuel consumption isnt an issue. Rather pay more on fuel than have a diesel :)

    No thanks.... I reckon its about 50/50 for a drop this time with one in December near a certainty if no drop in Nov and things continue as they are....
