The pair of them looked well dodgy with big dark sunglasses obviously trying to conceal their faces. Both smoking as well. Had some cool music playing on the video though. Non of this modern shite @Seat68is so keen on. 13 hours ago, Seat68 said: Same at Asian weddings, the long procession of high end cars. All of them should be investigated as clearly they would be purchased from the proceeds of crime. Some of you need to take your heads out the sand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These may be criminals, they may, or they may have hired a car to make their mate feel good after doing time in prison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s absolutely no way a hire company is taking cash to hire a Lambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I don't drive into work anymore. Used to, it was manageable up until about 2010, then just got unbearable. Couldn't imagine how shite it would be today.

Davkaus Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I made the mistake of driving into Birmingham tonight for a gig. Always forget how awful it is compared to Nottingham. Lanes seem to be optional 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check him out on Instagram, lives like a Prince I know some other guys, an yes they make money, but most of the time he's got 2 million pounds worth of cars in the showroom looking pretty, same as Lord Allem. These cars need to be out everyday to make you any serious money, an that's just to cover the finance payments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 One of my favourite things is a drive with the roof down, heated seats and heated steering wheel on, while it's frosty outside. It's like a hottub on wheels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have dual zone air con, like mine (shady boast), you can have your side heater to the floor hot, an the passenger vent directed over your side and adjust passenger temp to cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted March 6 Moderator Share Posted March 6 Just now, sidcow said: Well, they will if they're a front for money laundering! They won't need a very big washing machine if the car gets taken out on day one and smashed up, not only that, they'd have to have insurance that covered rental. Insurance of a rental Lambo is going to be....big numbers. The insurance company aren't going to take cash. Even if you manage to pay for a Lambo cash in hand, which I doubt as the seller is instantly going to attract attention from the Inland revenue as soon as he deposits that money, which will trigger an investigation into the current owner of the vehicle. Sorry it's just too far fetched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 An under 1 entry to scallywags as £3.50 An over 1 entry is £4.50. So because my son is a few days older than the last time, it's an extra quid. He's still the same size, he's still using the same under 3s play area, he's not migrated to the main event yet where he's likely to get curb stomped by the abundance of feral kids. So why is it an extra quid exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
