Cars and boats

saw a Morgan (old one at that) being used to tow a big fishing powerboat once, that was amusing...  also saw a 21ft trailer sailer (big ugly thing) being towed down the A30 by a clapped out Citroen two summers ago

And you too could tow your dinghy at 155mph (restricted!)

I used to have an old Tasar (which was light), an old road trailor (which wasn't) and a 1.0 Fiesta (which was crap).

I was picking up the boat and struggled to get up Detling Hill (Kent) towing the trailor only! At one point I had to change down to 1st gear and  the rest of the journey was just as much fun.

amazing how many of these fantastic efforts are out there... just 'cos you stuck a big spoiler on it mate, it's still a crappy nova underneath, just like big bass speakers in the back shelf - cool if you've got a car you want to have people look at you in, not cool if you're crusing the high street in a badly bodged fiesta



... now where did I put that spray paint I need to touch up the sharks teeth under the bow????

Originally posted by timnoyce hmmmm, trailer entitlement? I'd better keep the beard so that I look a bit more vintage in the eyes of the old bill then just in case! I've been known to have achieved more than a tonne with the cherub in tow... it was only to prove a point when overtaking an idiot in a bodykitted nova though so I think that makes it legal.

 

I've outdragged Saxo's etc away from the lights in the Impreza with the boat on the back just to prove a point....should have seen their eyes....   And his chavvy Girlfriend in the back was giggling her head off when her "cool" boyfriend, in his "cool" car, was made to look an idiot....
