i got banned from that mg club yesterday, just for saying they should move with the times and that rover went under because they were flogging a 15 year old car with an mg badge. All true stuff but obviously they dont realise this.

I tried replying to this Pillocks statement but I think im banned too

I've had so many lol moments reading there "what cars have you come up against and beat" thread, serious dreamers in there!

The maestro beating an impreza still makes me chuckle

Is this v6 bloke the same guy that started the mg thread the other day?

[GMballistic]

^^ Think so dutch. That threads locked now anyhow btw. :salut:

Pretty sure it's a different v6 bloke, their one who posted on here is ok but the one on the mg forum is a complete cock, and the same bloke who beat a 400 bhp civic on a track, and claims the zs180 has a dc2 chassis.

Thanks for the welcomes.

No I'm not anyone except Talkingcars, it's the name I use everywhere except Faceache and twitter where it is Talkincarz because some company in America registered the former although they don't use it. The great thing about using 1 user name is people know who you are, regarless of what forum you are on - google your user name and see how many links come up.

Personally I've nothing against Hondas but they don't get me as excited as some, I prefer my MG's. No, I'm not poor, I just prefer spending my money on bricks and morter or the future than on rubber and paint and stuff. Besides, how else can you afford to buy 4 cars, all with different characters and still have change? Fancy a bit of roof down, jump in your S2000, fancy a long cruise, jump in your accord, fancy a bit of lines running, jump in your civic type R.................

I must admit I was a bit miffed when I read people having a dig at my explotes in the "hot hatch" tread on xpower.
Yes, I did have a V6 espace and used to wind up folks in cosworths, no, it was never as fast but it did show how poor the cosworths handling was. FYI I was given the espace so more cheap motoring.

Yes, I did once wind up an Evo 7 in my maestro T16 turbo, yes, he was faster but no, he couldn't get away. At the end of the day if it was a race on a track it isn't just the power of the car that wins, it's also the ability of the driver!
And don't knock the maestro, with the T16 turbo engine I've got a 200bhp car that weighs just about 1000kg and does 0-60 in under 7 and cost me less than £1500 to buy and build.

I'm not sure what the average age of a Civic type R owner is but I guess it's mid 20's so less than some of my kids, when you get to my age you realise there is more to life than a flash car.

And finally - MG's are for poor people - they always have been!

But MG's are poo.

What a contradicting post, you prefer to spend your money on bricks and mortar (sp corrected), yet you have a large list of cars you own/owned. Not sure if you are srs dude but you say your Espace outhandles a Cosworth? Sierra or Escort?

and yes, you bro is cool story...

[dutch]

And he implies that type r owners are immature yet it's him talking about beating cosworth's and evo's

[Just Dirk]

Just looked at your espace...

[talkingcars]

But MG's are poo.

Personal opinion mate and a bit of a sweeping one.

Never said an espace out handles a cosworth, I was talking about the sierra saphires in both cases, what I ment was that because the cosworths didn't handle that well it was possible to keep close enough for them to be wound up, the espace handled horribly, it felt like the engine was swinging from side to side as you went around roundabouts.

I have owned quite a few cars, some poo, some fun, some prize winning, all cheap, all mine.

But spot on.

[Just Dirk]

MG's are sh-t and owners are too poor to affiliate themselves with ctro members.

Need moar espace pics..

Say what you mean - mean what you say.

Not implying that any one is immature - just saying that at 24 your prioraties are different to mine at 48.

And never said I beat a cosworth or an evo, that would be a lie, just watched cosworths nearly loose it on 2 sucsesive roundabouts because the espace kept catching him up and watched an evo driver get more streesed as this lil' old maestro kept appearing in his mirror.

[steve83]

Espace. :roflmao:

Are people actually this deluded?

Listen mate, your car is shlt. Face it. Its a pile of toss. And if i was going to go out cruising for bltches, thats the last thing i would be driving. Trust.

Sexy blonde: " hmm, should i go with the guy whos driving a pile of junk rover and looks like a pikey? Or should i get in the CTR with the guy who makes Aviators look fornicating sexy?"

Seriously, not sure if it's been said before, but MG's are shlt.
