If I charged £47.50 for passenger rides I would prob have a extra few k in the bank.
Yeah but you could only supply an S2000 passenger ride, whereas i would be using a VW Polo 1.4.
.../shudders ...that's some serious power.Only if I can have a free run so I can let everyone know what it's like, sort of like a review, then I tell them how awsome it is and they all give you money for the pleasure 
Well I've got my big service on Tuesday, I am hoping to get a good deal of my suspension; all the rubber and the front wishbones and rear control arms replaced before the meet also (although they never seem able to tell when the rubber is knackered in my experience until it's actually changed and you feel/hear the differance), so it 'should' ride and handle a lot better and not clonk from the rear.
In addition to my suspension falling off and my vanos rattling like a bag of bolts I have manifested a sort of sing-song whine/whistle when going over about 60mph on flat smooth tarmac, from the right side of the car now, I think it's likely a wheel bearing. I knew this was going to kick me in the wallet right after purchase but there seems to be more stuff worn out than I had first thought, I'm still not harbouring doubts though so that's good ...it still handles a hell of a lot tighter and sharper than the Jag did, even if it's suspension is as worn and tired as as Britains roads.

As there is such unprecedented demand for 1.4 Polo's, if I come I'll bring my Dad's and leave the evo at home
We can make a cool corner, where only VW sub 1.5L cars are allowed. As far as i am concerned everybody else can fo if they do not meet the criteria. Unless they wish to pay the £47.50 for a passenger ride.

Fantastic idea! Then RobbieG can come head it up and throw gangsta looks at the BMW crowd
