spent well over 100K

scientifically, 'micropenis', but in layman's terms it's when you cant help but piss on your fingers because your cock is very very small.

the early ones were indeed twitchy
part of the fun though

9000 in the revs

238bhp form a two litre engine that will never ever break

whats not to love
( spimf ™ is whoever you want him to be, Mon 4 Oct 2010, 11:26, closed)

Clutches are shit though.
and cost best part of a grand to change.

The problem is the savagery of the power delivery. 240 horses isn't many, even in a car that small, but (especially with the early ones, mine was 2000) when you have about 100 bhp at 5000 rpm and the full nuts at jut below 6000 when the valves re-map, that half-inch of accelerator travel needs to be treated carefully in the wet.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 4 Oct 2010, 12:36, closed)

both true
and loads of fun

i never had any clutch issues but i spent a lot of money on tyres discs and pads

again money well spent
( spimf ™ is whoever you want him to be, Mon 4 Oct 2010, 14:46, closed)

Really? you've been quite lucky.
All the pre-2003 ones have the clutch go at about 40k. It's a fault in the three-plate design.

Yeah, tyres and pads were an expense but considering the rubber is specific, £400 for a full set isn't too bad. And I used to do Lotus owner's club track days, and they provide a free mechanic, so I never paid labour on fitting brake pads ;)

£100k on 4 Hondas??
are you mad? I'd take a Skyline and then a GTR over them any day, but then, that is just personal preference I suppose.

Since 2000 I've probably spunked about £5k on cars, all shit to drive but you can get 4 kids in them all.

i didn't need 4 seats, we had a VW golf my wife ferried my boy around in
only one s2 was bought from new (you learn that lesson after the first new car)

im including running costs (except petrol) so tyres brakes etc in that 100k estimate and that was over 10 years so i think it is reasonable

i personally don't like the old skyline, too pimpy - i drove the new gtr but aside from being too expensive i dont like effectively having a laptop driving for me. looks good though.

part of the reason i am buying a (second hand) 911 carrera 4 is that is still a proper sports car but i can put the wee fella in a child seat in the back (hes only 4) we also have a VW Passat estate for sensible purposes so im not having my family suffer just so i can ponce around

as someone rightly pointed out further up - why shouldn't i spend my money on something i enjoy? my family are well provided for, my wife doesn't need to work and i have no debts aside from a mortgage

and yes i will be losing my child benefit shortly and no i don't care.

i am probably am mad though.
