Man...tell me you're joking?! Did you raid all of Halford's stock?!

Joshing aside, my flatmate had nightrider LEDs in the grille of his Micra...actually looked kinda cool in a geeky kinda way!

Could I have the number of the guy who was selling that 360 with leather and AC please?

cheers

Old topic but now I've found a name for the GLT: Sheryl

Why 'Sheryl'? Just because there was a song from Sheryl Crow on the radio when I was thinking about that...

nessy : we drove it round loch ness on one of the first trips
grace : lots of argument on here that she was grey. she was black.
dougle : after the dog on magic roundabout
snowey : after 2 white cars, calling a green one snowey seemed appropriate. named after a very very heavy night on the beers, it was snowing
katie : named by my parents, after the number plate (k85.. katey-five.. etc)
maisie : named by previous owner
leah : it was a 'limited edition' (le) - so...
bob : big ol' beast (named by previous owner)
siddy : like 'fiddy' cent, its a three 'siddy'

swapsies : i only got it to swap

(needs a better name, suggestions please)

The fit one is called Cully

Err, that'd be spelt Dougal!

Anyone else need some spelling lessons???

Ooh, just looked her up. She is fairly cute in a too-old-for-me kinda way

Nessy is also supposed to be spelled Nessie, I believe, but I've got so used to Nessy that Nessie looks wrong!

cheers

actually I know its Cully but its a CALibra so I thought a kind of cross section would keep the missus oblivious to my lusting henca Cally

She's only 27?!? Never underestimate the charms of an older woman. Not that she’s really my type.

Anyhow:

E346 AFE = Affie
G73 SAU = Sauasage
F617 ORY = Rory

I think Laura Howard who plays Cully is actually 29
(god shes young enough to be my daughter

)

Oh yes, I never was very good at hard sums

The 360 is called smokey because of da numberplate (SMO 58Y) and i havent thought of a name for the 340 (B980 EAV, any ideas?)

Sorry to be an anorak but the original KARR in knightrider was black and then resprayed 2tone when somebody "rescued" it from the beach in the 2nd series. I gotta stop borrrowing box sets!
