Darren-K Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I had to give my Dad a lift to collect his car from a mechanic he uses all the time to service his car,M.o.t it etc On the way there my dad asked me,. "what power does this car have Darren"? i said,"about 200bhp dad" my dad burst out laughing calling me an idiot and plenty more,. saying "Darren this car must be at least 2000bhp ,even my car is 3000bhp" ( my dads car is a 4x4 nissan ) I then got realy annoyed,. "Dad,your talking CC``s ,. CUBIC CAPACITY,. thats not BHP" this went on,. and on,. for about 7 miles., anyways,. gets to my Dads mechanics workshop,.so my Dad asked the mechanic in front of me,."Isnt my car 3000bhp" the mechanic unbleivably said,." well kind of yes " (i said) "were talking BHP not CC" he said,.. "Its all calculated on CC Darren" as soon as he said that i went shaking my head.. how on earth can a mechanic think this ? My dad has told me plenty of times in the past "you should use my mechanic Daz" ha ha !!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
