Another year closer to forty then...

.... and obviously wiser.

<considers contents of the garage>

OK, probably not wiser either. At least, a few more grey hairs.

Blimey! I thought you were mid forties.

 

When the number of vehicles in your possession equals your years -
that's when you need to worry. I'm proud to say that I only own six
vehicles, and am 49, so my vehicle/age index is a mere 8.16.

 

Blimey! I thought you were late 50s!

Heh, you know it's time to drink more and stay out very late partying
every night when your visually perceived age matches your actual age.

 

47/6 = 7.8 for me

 

Oops. Mistake. I've got seven (Primera, K1100LT, 750SS, CB550, CB400,
CD250, another CD250 in large lumps, and the SL125).

No, that's eight.

So, er, 6.1. Heh! I'm younger than you!

 

<fag packet sums>

SV650: 72
RGV250: 55
306XSI: 123
Leon Cupra: 180

Grand total : 410

It would appear my cars are OK, but my bikes are truly gay.

I'm surprised your 330's so sluggish though. 231bhp from 3 litres? Was
it designed by Americans?

Excellent. 8[1] giving me 5.375. I think I need to work on this.

[1] Technically 7 at the moment.

 

41/7.5[1] = 5.5 for me.

[1] I own half the Raptor.

I have age on my side.

250bhp from 3 litres?

You might want to check under the bonnet and make sure it really does
have the two extra cylinders.

 

Pah, that's nothing. I've got 220bhp from 5.7 litres.

Oh...

I never do well at these:

Tiger 955i - 100(?)
ZX7r - 110(?)
Jeep 4.0L - 170
RX8 - 231

611 total.

heh - it's not impressive, especially when you compare it to my 231bhp
car which has a displacement of 1.3l

 

That's a funny way to spell 3.9l

 

You think that's bad:

Honda FR-V (1.8 VTEC) - 138
Morris Minor 1000 (The mighty A-Series engine) - 48[1]

186 total.

And to think I've had single vehicles with considerably more than that
combined total. Depressing ain't it?

Phil.

[1] Maybe originally. I doubt whether it makes half that now. It is
over 40 years old and most of it is still original - it isn't even
converted for unleaded.

 

Pah. It's registered in my name, she just has the use of it.

And anyway, it's not cheating it's just a liberal interpretation of the
rules.

I love any offsite event where there's competition since it allows me to
tax my brain with ways to win; my favourite was when we had to build a
'machine' capable of supporting an egg when it was thrown (on tarmac)
when all we had was paper, rubber bands and the like. Since the rules
said it mustn't smash I just hardboiled mine and then placed it in a
cardboard tube and lobbed it.

 

it only uses petrol as if it were a 3.9

 

What does it show on the registration document?

Sorry, V5...

err. V5C.. or whatever.
