Coupe in a field

Post by Bigfatbiffta »

Well ive just bought my first coupe turbo, moved up from a 1.0 suzuki swift...needless to say that tonight i found myself in a field, the handling isnt quite the same as the 1.6 k series that im used to have...and i might have drove a bit too enthusiastically...basically i need a front bumper, drivers side wing, bonnet and a drivers side headlamp, all panels in british racing green so its a bolt off bolt on job, before my mum sees it...coz she lent me the money to buy it, lol...and im in mega logger if she sees it...any hel much appreciated!

This has made my day :lol:

And bigfatbiffta: the coupe brakes are useless, to try save yourself from doing it again, get the zs/ti setup. For the sake of around £80...the stopping power is miles better than the standard setup........

....and dont drug drive :thumbup:

yeah I realised as I clicked submit but couldnt be arsed to edit it.

I blame a mental barrier, my mind couldnt comprehend how anyone would be retarded enough to go from a swift to a coupe and think they'd handle similarly.

I was under no illusion that they would handle the same, lol, i just forgot how tripe n onions poor the brakes are on a coue, its been a while since ive had one, and yes i man up, i did drive like a bit of a tit which is something i dont normally do, hence my 4 years no claims in 4 years of driving, just got a bit too enthusiastic and payed the price unfortunatley. Ive learnt from my mistake anyway, haha.
