If their tilt trays are so smart, then why is the exhaust positioned so that it blows diesel soot all over your fresh primer? :furious:

 

Oh yeah... NICE!

 

Rubbing... rubbing... rubbing...

That's a BA FPV of some description I think?

Like a GT or Typhoon or something.

I just bought my VP back after a year of it being in my mates ownership. Such nice cars to drive. But mine is too grumpy to be a daily. I leave that to the VF :-)

 

I really love your daily!
