I don't know why, but it really annoys me that Vauxhall are writing TURBO on every car that has a turbo. Like almost every car nowadays doesn't have a crappy small engine with a turbo. Meh..musings..

I will be removing the Astra and Turbo badges

Why? It's better than seeing yet another "TDI" badge

VW and BMW still stick i badges on the back of things. Its been a while since you could by a carb'd engine.

I think BMW stopped making carbed cars somewhen in 1987, so 30 years now.

I stands for petrol.. D stands for diesel.

they don't make things like 320id

it's either 320i or 320d which is pretty clear in my opinion.

Or Li like the brand new 740Li I saw yesterday What a monster

Surely being pedantic it should be 320p and 320d considering diesel also has electronic fuel injection. Saying that though car trims in general do not make sense. I mean when was the last GTI that was in any way a grand tourer.

Being even more pedantic it would be 320b and 320d, as the German word for Petrol is Benzin.

Trickled down tech from F1. It's not a bad thing! If we didn't have small turbo engines most people would still be tootling around in little underpowered cars or smelly old diesel's.

Yeah it's not exactly blinding stuff. Yesterday I popped over to a friend of mine who has just bought an S6 V8T. The space ship interior on that made mine look quite retro. Mind you, my seats are still comfortable and I can stretch my spider legs out so I'm content on my commute.

 

[sigma]

Bangernomics would imply that you bought it for about a grand?

I've considered an Ovlov but they're either thirsty or dog slow.

 

[.:SAmSuNG:.]

Really like that volvo. How much was it?

 

[Akagi]

Doesnt look even remotely bangernomicsy to me. is it on 350,000 miles and was £750?

£3995 by the looks of it. Doesn't strike me as a particularly good deal. Looks to be around the going rate.
