Big boys toys eh... cars and boats seem to have a lot in common, we
were talking about this over a few beverages the other night.. compare
car culture with dinghy culture...
Cherub - like fitting mad body kit to old-school Vxl Nova and Nitrous Oxide tanks, goes like heck (in bursts), looks good from afar but still a Nova at the end of the day ![]() or Merlin Rocket - like a Jag XKR8, fast, elegant, very english and driven by lawyers, barristers and accountants! I think we could have some harmless fun with this one... my favorite was the comparison between Laser and new Mini Cooper - you really wanted one once because they looked like fun but now everyones got one! |

Perhaps this time round rather than speculating over likley pairings we can name our own choices to see if there is any actual linkage ... Me ... Musto Skiff & Honda Civic Type R. Both light, fast, well engineered and never break even when thrashed ... Rick |

Laser 5000 and currently carless
![]() Isis isn't a 1.6 a bit big for a young male driver? Cost me about £100 a month in insurance to be added to my mum's 1.8 306... Edited by CurlyBen |

Its silly-big for a first car but surprisingly cheep to insure, was
about £1400 when I first got it on a provisional, renewals comming up
next month and expecting it to be closer to £1000 this time round
Quinn Direct - their prices reflect their service but its oh-so worth it... Edited by Isis |

RS600 and old shape Subaru Impreza - Quick but not that refined, a bit rough round the edges, makes lots of noise and lots of fuss about it but loads of fun!

Uh, oh, there does seem to be a link, though so far we have only heard from fast boat sailors...Firefly, British Moth and Citroen ZX desiel estate....Hmmm there does seem to be a pattern here! Or should I have lied to look cool?! |
