Ian W Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 He's losing his bottle. Wants my licence number etc. for some reason what would be the point in that? i agree with tbourner......punch him in the eyeball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snooze Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Actually, the cornering is an interesting point. Most of the clio drivers I've seen round here can go really quick round roundabouts in town (and get really impressive wheelspin and drive really quickly up the high street ). Seriously, tho, I wouldn't like to put money on whether the clio or the supra cornered faster at lower speeds - the early V6's were apparently a nightmare, but they redesigned the chassis in the 255 with an increased wheelbase, wider front track and revised front suspension.

GeordieSteve Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 what would be the point in that? i agree with tbourner......punch him in the eyeball Apparently he can find out all the details about the car from my licence (which I know is bullshit). I think he thinks TT was a modification:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Why is it so important for you to teach an idiot the error of his ways? Only an idiot would be quoting figures like that when simple Googling would throw up the correct ones. Who cares? Just agree with him, explain why your old&tired Toyota is now even slower than new, and casually set a friendly bet (that will sting him if he loses) Being the slowest of the two you can pick the venue ofcourse, make it a long straight where he won't even see the rear wing of the soop. Then collect money. No reruns, no roundabouts, nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Who cares? I was just about to say - "really...guys....why do you give a shit? " Let him think his car is better than yours, that's fine. One day he'll find out. A simple "If you say so.." is more likely to annoy him anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragal Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Because 280+800 = 1020 (Supra) Because 255+800= 1055 (V6) that boy can't do math! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun. Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 The more I read this the more I want to kick this guy up the arse. Seems like a clueless windup chav type guy, needs a girlfriend and a good hiding Shaun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Juuuuuuust to be on the safe side, investigate if he has a massive nitrous system installed. You never know, maybe he appears cocky and confident for a reason. When I had fitted a stealthy turbo kit on my 1100 I kept it a secret for almost two years. I'd come up with all sorts of bullshit excuses for being faster (from tailwind, wrist technique, secret tyre compound, only cosmic radiation I didn't quote:sly: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I was just about to say - "really...guys....why do you give a shit? " Let him think his car is better than yours, that's fine. One day he'll find out. A simple "If you say so.." is more likely to annoy him anyway. I agree with this logic, he is one of those wind up merchants that clearly feels the need to show himself as better than you as he has a "superior car" let him get on with it. And be safe in the knowledge he is wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 mate dont even bother, laugh off his comments and say to him "if you say so" What a loser, guy sounds like a typical no clue boy racer who has been fobbed off by a sales man into buying a clio becuase he has been told buy the sales guy that its super fast blah blah blah laugh at his attempts and im sure your mrs has no interest either so I would'nt worry both ways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 ok, so who has the fastest N/A anyway, NOS works well on them doesn't it. Isn't it Rays the roof, lets get his car along and forget to mention the slight mods seriously though this bloke sounds like a wind up, I'd leave him to it. But if you can entice him to race and bet, take the money and spend it on some nice mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 £22,000, then shipping (is there any financial stuff at the jap end btw) import duty, vat, sva.... Clue your missus up (obviously if she knows her stuff it isn't necessary) so she can laugh at him every time he opens his gob. Other than that, if he's local I'll take him for a quick blast up the motorway, I'll tell him it's only got 276bhp, and maybe his Clio neeeds some attention?

chris burford Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Why does he feel all chavs are poor he obviously not fully aware of what a real chav actually is. Appears to me he is in need of education. By way of Brick face BPU foot up arse technique And a TT educational race over half a mile. Then remind him his car was built by people who eat frogs legs,women have hairy armpits and they sold the exocets that sunk our ships during the Falklands. Then see how proud he is of his overpriced pile of craply engineered tupperware sh1t box. Rant over Sorry but people like that make my Red optimax boil.

GeordieSteve Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 Sorry but I'll have to post this follow up... The misses lay down the gauntlet for a race and he said.... ok I'll install game on one of the work computers and I bet the Clio V6 beats the Supra... NO SHIT!!!! He's basically dropped his arse with the race and is now suggesting I don't infact own a Supra. Apparently he's around the age of 30... silly really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 this guy is plainly a wind up, just give your missus a list of wild insults to start throwing at him and his car and fight fire with fire lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris burford Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 yeah that... what a smuch... my Missus has a Clio and it's good... but it's really a girls car... it's a Clio for christ sake what is this guy on?! If he had £27k to spend why on earth did he think "hey, I'll get the big Clio"... I'm sorry, I know it's fast and expensive, but it's like the XR3i of the Clio world... I would ask him to get some bollocks and be a grown up... Sonic soop you hit the nail on the head there the F$*! wit obviously didnt think. Bought the car with his dick rather than his heart or his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
