Wasnt me Phate, can't recall having any rally cars come through. That Aston Martin was probably the most exotic car we've had. and the F1 cars of course but getting anywhere near them is a mission in itself.

Fair enough!

Pic as requested

Sorry its a bit late

by "just outside my office" you mean "secured to an airfreight pallet sat in an airfreight warehouse outside my office" which seems slightly more plausible

By "outside my office" it came across as somebody had just popped into their CLK GTR to drive to their place of work for the day

Still thanks for sharing

I presume you work for an air freight company ?

We you not the guy who posted the picture of that Subaru Rally car that had been sold and was being shipped off?

Had instructions all over it not to start it or put fuel in it etc.

I recall that post. Can't for the life of me find it now though :/

Had a damn good sit in this today.

G-MAN2004 · 15 Feb 2013 at 15:14

The DB5 is just stunning...

Edit: Wow, sold for $4.6m

Basher · 15 Feb 2013 at 15:25

Name of house is appropriate to what happens when you start the car, I would imagine.

VXR-S (its a 1.4 astra)... VXR badge from a VXR and a S from a Zetec S....Why?

Princey · 16 Feb 2013 at 20:48

As you know I really want a VXR Astra again but then I see owners like this and think, do I really?

Rybo89 · 16 Feb 2013 at 21:26

VXR owners do make me laugh, i went to a mini meet and never heard so much **** spoken.

A Corsa VXR driver who got away from a Scooby police car, another Corsa that can beat a GTR 0-60 with ease and plenty more tosh. Needless to say, i didn't fit in very well since i questioned and doubted most things lol. Even more unbelievable is the fact most of the people there believed each others bull**** lol...Never again will i go to a 'car meet', not my thing at all.

Same with VXROnline, i haven't been on there in donks due to all crap that is spouted on there.

VXR's are becoming the new Type R now aswell, especially the Corsa's, they are everywhere.

Soulja · 16 Feb 2013 at 21:34

Lol wut. I'd love to of seen that guy race a GTR. Some people are deluded. Is it even possible for a fwd car to be able to pull that quickly to 60?!

Kenai · 16 Feb 2013 at 21:39

I can well believe it, I did an MP4-12C off the lights in a work Astravan this week without even trying.

Sod that question, is it even possible to beat a GT-R f0-60 ull stop? It's like 2.77 seconds...

Lets go, OCUK Dragstrip day

ScoobyDoo69 · 16 Feb 2013 at 23:04

I'll give it a go, no launch control allowed for the GTR though

^JP^ · 16 Feb 2013 at 23:40

I think it can still get a low 3 second just by mashing the pedal without launch mode.
Not tested it out though but I do now have a performance box so I could test it.

R Start is just so much fun, I love taking people out it in and seeing their reaction :eek:
