Boy racers?

mellman01

Now is it only me who's noticed it but there seems to be hardly any boy racers in their Nova's around these days?, there's also a distinct lack of chav hyperspace transportation devices ie cars so baddly pimped up they look more like a X fighter from star wars than a car. Normally they can be often seen/found sticking out of ditches and hedges wherever there's a bend or a junction with a Police advisory sticker on it.

Traffic is generally quieter here and I suspect it's thanks to the cost of fuel. There are definitely more cyclists clogging things up, riding three abreast whilst yakking, not signalling their intentions and doing without lights at night. DD

I'm with you, what a car I love Mustangs, my Dad had a garage back in the 1970's and we were the first people to sell American cars in Oxfordshire we use to get all types of Mustangs in, we also had a couple of 6.6L Transam's talk about muscle car they were like a rocket on wheels eat fuel like I do Tramadol's and make just as much noise!, that said a 68 Mustang with manual shfit like the one used in Bullet is my favorite of all time.
