Nor will I, Si you wish you had a 330 actually you wish you had a licence still.  You have no opinion, a bit like an oxford fan on league footy it doesnt count

Nah, a 330 would be no use to me.

An oxford fan has a good opinion of non league footy I reckon.

Have you been on the regga regga again mate, I think your logic is a bit messed up.

Nah not a GTA, it's a JTD Lusso.  Nothing amazing, but lovely car all the same.

Post by: janaage on Sunday, November 18, 2007, 21:32:17
saw an ad for the new Volvo c30 r design in todays Independant, quite like the look of that one.


Title: New Type R On Top Gear
Post by: Bushey Boy on Sunday, November 18, 2007, 21:39:18
thats the one, looks lovely in black


Title: New Type R On Top Gear
Post by: janaage on Sunday, November 18, 2007, 21:42:29
yeah it's in black in the ad, not sure if volvo's are that nice to drive though, heavy, safe and bulky aren't they?

where's a car expert when you need one?

Last car was an 850, built like a Merc, wouldv'e lasted forever, if i looked after it and went like stink. I highly recommend Volvos and will get another one day.

The Volvo C30 T5 has the same engine as the Focus ST.

FGW are cunts.

We missed our train over the weekend due to unexpected tube delays. So we got the next one. When the conductor came round he charged us £36 each because it we were on the wrong timed train!! Bastard.  :x

fucking ignore him - it's down at 220bhp so it's a bit less frantic (but you can get a chippity-chip for £600 - that's tempting!)

Title: New Type R On Top Gear

It handles like a pig on rollerblades Ash.

Focus ST handles far better.
