Apart from the before and after effects of modifications what is actually learnt from this?, ideally they could weigh your car first to give a BHP per ton, that's where the bragging rights belong.
My vehicle gets over 692bhp per ton.

Bragging rights? No one goes there to brag about anything :confused:

Whats to learn is whether your car is making decent power for standard or whether your modifications are worth it/have added a decent amount.

Oh and I forgot the obvious one - To meet people from the forums!

The other reason people go is to meet up with the people that we talk to on a daily basis across the internet, and talk with them face-to-face.

It's also a good opportunity to see and get passenger rides in a variety of different cars you'd not normally get a chance to see or experience.

I'm coming to meet people face to face, and see what a tool Fox and Paradigm are in real life

Getting to run the car is a bonus.

Why does everyone go on and bloody on about Fox. Leave the guy alone. I'm not a anti fox bashing parade person but really why do people constantly pick at him?
You're new to this forum, and as you will find as many others have, the guy is decent.

You mean from Fox and Paradigm in the case of Rover416i, or in the case of cars?

-Mike- · 19 Feb 2009 at 21:26

The cars mate, never had a problem with Fox, and never spoken to the other guy.

I was just going to say... me and Fox don't see eye to eye on the forum but in person, he's a very friendly and down to earth chap

Paradigm however, well... he's just himself really

mattyprice4004 · 19 Feb 2009 at 21:31

Please don't take me up the bum

My previous statement was based on watching years of snide comments about other people's cars, when it's clearly not needed. Fun the first few times, but just unnecessary after that...

Don't get me wrong, I understand it might be all purely in jest, but in the end people will like what they like, and nothing will change that.

For example, I happen to like my Rover, although I know they have their flaws for me both have been sure-footed, enjoyable and reliable rides.

Just my thoughts. Maybe you'll be awesome in person, who knows.

Not really spoke to Fox much but Paradigm's the gay looking one.

edit: who do we have coming from the North?

[TW]Fox · 19 Feb 2009 at 21:38

Of course its not in jest, I genuinelly hate your car and think my car is the worlds most perfect car EVER and that anyone who doesnt have one is clearly deluded. Why would I possibly think anything else, this is after all TEH INTARWEB.

Well in person you can't either shortarse.

EDIT: And Fox is just himself, he's similar in person, but he's harmless.

Now come on, we all know that YOU are the homo looker of the forum, with your flappy paddle emo hair and your white shopping trolley

I love my Rover. End of

I'm tempted to put it on the rollers but AGW's will put it to shame

If you've watched for years maybe you're a secret ex member? Dun dun
