then i had m951mpf off bazza gt4 as a swap for the cs no piccies though
had hard drive failure and lost em :(
then my import i bought off garath at hibeldstowe
loved this car

i bought a 165 from sheffield then i sold to eircam in ireland lost piccies again :(
then this faff

just couldnt get attatched to it so sold
then got this 165 to do up but just ended up using the engine etc out of it

this car is now in scrappie in the sky rip

WAY TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY FAFFS!!   :P
Gaffer tape is like "the force" - it has a light side, a dark side and it holds the universe together.

There's nothing that shouts "Poor Workmanship"  more than wrinkles in the gaffer tape.....

Faff, 165, crate, all GT4's and all cool in my book  8)

Each to their own but we all know they have their good and bad points between models. 165 being the spritely young teenager who got the ball rolling but suffered from acne (rust) it then gave in to eating too many pies and became the lardy a r s e 185 with all the extra weight and bulges in all the wrong places. And finally age got the better of them and they turned into a fast but feeble jointed old fart in the shape of the 205 still with its fat a r s e and now with creaking and clonking joints and a vague idea of where to be on the road at any given time  ;D

we love them all  :P
