Oh dear...I had a bad feeling someone might post it on Barryboys (not exactly deservedly, I must add), but I didn't see this coming.

Let's just hope no-one sends in Stuntman's 240 if they don't like graphics! Mick's are subtle in comparison :D sm56

cheers

:shock: (lets out a snigger but then feels guilty for laughing) :oops:
oo-er.

I'm a bit confused though, cos just above the picture, it says this:

Legal stuff
You can only send us your own images - so it's no use copying random stuff from the internet (or sending us a photo the owner doesn't want published) because we won't be able to display it. By sending us your images, you agree to these terms and allow us all rights to use them.

...but the picture is clearly the same as your avatar. Surely not a self-nomination? Or has someone swiped the pic from the avatar and gotten away with it?

Man, that looks like a whole world of fun! Where can I get one?

Someone's swiped it from the gallery. When they say "your own picture", they mean one you've taken....that you own the copywrite to. Either that or someone cruel who was at the Stondon meet sent it in :-P Let's be honest, there were more embarrassing things happening that day...

cheers

If they dare ridicule Tulip then I'd drag race any of them, with the knowledge I'd happily do a pit manouver on anything in mine as I know my car has a negligable fiscal value,

So I dare them, and then I'd ram them 8)

Rant over, but hey ho, I do feel that Micks cars is there undeservadly though as his is quite tasteful, as I know mine isn't!!
Erm, I've lost my keys again...

That is undeserved, but as we know, we're a thick skinned bunch, we have to be to own one and take the absue anyway, yet we know the secrets of the 300 and why we own one. Each to their own, and as special used to say, 'dare to be different.' Let them have their expensive tin can fodder, we'll keep out 300's thanks.
