Anyone had any experiences?

I want something thats going to make me soil myself on request though mate.

Is that what you got?

Havn't got it yet, need to sell two of my other bikes if i want it quickly, otherwise it'll be a couple of months.

Trust me, free-riding with a bit of northshore added in will make you soil yourself. 'Least, that's my excuse.:D

You make a good point mate, a bit of downhill mountain biking is some scary stuff.

Those MR2 Turbos do 0-60 in under 5 seconds, its too tempting to pass up for a few grand.

M3 beating acceleration, few grand, 2 seater, mid-engined....why not!

Yeah, go for it. :)

My thoughts exactly!

Hey up Dave. Good news! :D

Since the....err..... slight knock i took the other day the fiance's taking pity on me and 'allowing' me to order the Rush.

mwaa ha ha ha.

So moping around the house, yelping 'ow' every time i move has paid dividend's then.

Hahhahah, glad to hear some good is coming from you mishap mate! :)

I haven't bought the car yet, can't find one in the condition I like so it's gone on hold for a bit.

No rush really is there matey, shop around. As it's not something you absolutely need you have the advantage of being able to hold out for the one you want or walk away from any deal you're not happy with.

Gott be black though. MR2's should only be in black.

Anyway, i've my card to hand, so i'm off to order the bike. :D .

I'll no doubt crash and smash this one as well but live for something or die for nothing.

Grrrrrrr

Typical ain't it! I've ordered the bike, quoted in stock on the site and by the sales guy i rang! and i've just had a call saying it'll be 4-6 weeks.

<<Stomps off yelling expletives galore.

Anyway, now i've got that off my chest i'm off to re-choose (if thats a word) another bike.
