Love the VX220!

Nice.

Why did you change over from the S2000 might I ask?

-Neil- · 14 Sep 2011 at 21:04

Nice one Mike, bet you couldn't get it out of your system since your ride in mine and the rental!

Just put mine up for sale

K20 Elise is now insurable for me so I'm after one of those

Nice, not sure I'd be keen on a Turbo mind - the NA 2.2 cries out for a supercharger

The NA version of this has provided me with possibly the most fun I've ever had in a car.

This should have near 300bhp though.

Nice.

Does it come with a coupon for 20% off a coffin?

It's already launched my phone at me. Shot at me like a bullet. :eek:

you know nothing you have only driven an N/A in the dry, totally different animal in the wet and actually massively more predictable once damp, all owners and drivers alike confirm this

infact as a result of this I don't think a vx220 has been crashed, ever.

don't know why you are surprised by the sarcasm given your bite worthy comments

"vx220 crashed" - the vx220 is the greatest car ever and completely driveable in any condition, so progressive you can drive it on the edge foreve........bang!

Firestar_3x · 15 Sep 2011 at 17:06

My problem was i always shouted 'Watch This' just before a drift, for some reason they never worked out

Amazed me he didn't pick up on the sarcasm tbh

Side note: Epic car Mike - will have to go out in it at some point, not been in one of these!

Congratulations. Please do not hurt yourself, there are some people saying these cars are safe like fwd hatchbacks, they are not.

In fact, I'm positive these same people think a lot of dumb things and may in fact be.... dumb?
