Right – I’m off to Paisley to look at a car: namely the Nissan 200SX (in racing green). If all goes well I’ll be skiting around Livingston roundabouts in it by the end of the week.
*crosses fingers*
Update: this is the actual motor (right). Had an interesting test drive in the lashing rain – I managed to get the back end wavering when I tapped the pedal in 2nd gear (in a straight line). It’s in fantastic condition so now purchased!
Now I just wait for the guy to get it serviced (hard bargaining) then pick it up later in the week.
Happy bunny.

Bitch, you’ve made a bad decision. You want one of these babies. Nissans are for fags.

Which reminds me – Is it only total pricks that buy BMWs, or is it driving around in one that makes you that way?
Just curious.

One more item ticked off on Aaron Bell’s Essentials for Young Professionals ™.
How much do you want for your Cavalier?

In all seriousness I’d sell the White Beast for £300.
This is pretty cheap – for evidence search Autotrader for 1.8i Cavs made in 1993.

My audi TT lives in a garage on my way to college. It’s been there ages on display. it’s £23,500 and comes with a free carbon fibre mountain bike also made in the audi factory. It’s shiny and has big chunky alloy wheels. Sometimes it changes position, and the doors are open. It’s a hard top. Other times I see people inside the showroom, looking at it. But it’s mine. In spirit, anyway.
Trains suck. Airports stress me out. Taxi’s never turn up. Busses never fail to put me in the wrong frame of mind to be going anywhere. Bikes make your hair shit. Timetables are for the organised. Queues are for those willing to waste their time, and tickets are made to be lost.

…what about traffic jams? Breakdowns? Finding a parking space? Hub-caps nicked again? Speeding tickets? Parking tickets? Road Tax? MOTs? The environment? Cars stress me out and I’ve never even owned one.

Granted, but it’s your own personal space. There when you want it, wherever you want to go, whenever you want to go. Your own soundtrack, your own little bubble. No neds screaming at their kids, no special people talking to you, or themselves for that matter. No schemies shouting into their mobile phones, no chewing gum on the seats.
Fuck the environment, join the AA, get insured, get there on time.

Evidence of the class-thrashing awesomeness of the 200SX can be found in the Top Gear reviews, viz. the S14 and my updated S14a Touring.

Yeah, I heard about the news from several sources. Hope you’re okay Mr Bell! Sports cars can be quite nasty, but pretty to look at it.
Take it easy.

Did you hang your head out the window and let your lolling tongue catch the flies? And then cry ’cause you weren’t allowed to go to Little Chef? And then cheer up because you saw a digger? Thought so.

I wish I knew what any of that meant. I also apologise for my lie about having been in a car, once. I’ve actually never done anything.
It was great!!!

the 200sx is a fine example of the japanese motor industry, it is one of the finest cars avaliable for the money. The 200sx has gret handling and plenty of power, the styling is rather nice too.
BMW’s are for pricks… german loving pricks, the only thing worse would be a french car.

If I had been hit in the head by a car, yes, I probably wouldn’t be concerning myself with what sort of make it was at that exact moment.
