    ... and the problem is the sorry arse cops don't like us using these sorts of machines to go any more than 100km/hr.

    For as long as I can remember the people around me have always drooled over fine machinery, but I can't understand who it is that actually drives the politicians to make such laws. I would see no problem with someone giving one of these cars a blat on the straights of the Wairarapa as long as the driver understand its capabilities and makes sure he doesn't run into anyone else... but if he was to try and keep going about 200km/hr through the centre of Masterton then I would say that was dangerous driving.
    Cheers

    Now this is a car

    Twin, read that TWIN Kawaka 900 or 1200cc engines, 0 to 60 mph time of 2.8 seconds and a 0 to 100 mph time of 6.3 seconds using road legal tyres.

    Makes my eyes widen thinking about it. Lets hope the cops never get them!

    Jrandom. Please. Just because the Hotwheels 'vehicle' has an "up yours" attitude does not elevate it above the crowd. Indeed, the use of expletives, whether verbally or aesthetically, is simply an indication of the laziness of the individual using such devices. As such it is actually demoted with respect to the plethora of compensatory automobiles.

    Furthermore, I would like it noted that I never tried to proselytise you of the supremacy of the Bugatti over the TVR. Rather my comments were intended to be as an addition, in the sense of "here is another large, somewhat silly, but still exhilerating car". I do truely appreciate the TVR as a peice of beautiful machinery. But debating the relative practicalities of these two vehicles really is rather asinine.

    Not at all. What better use for an education than to respond with caustic wit to my asinine blitherings? Imagine if my verbal (textual?) diarrhoea went unchecked...

    I am always happy to be the antibiotic to the selmonella to the pomposly verbose.
