Amazing 180sx

Wow...just droolworthy footage of this 180sx with a fresh paint job...wow...I found the video on the 180sx.com web site blog found here. If you got time you have to check it out as it has some amazing cars on there too.

Last few days...

Well for the past few days I was not around, I went to Budapest for a stag weekend and arrived back yesterday which is why I haven't been posting for a while.

Well I came back and called up Checkpoint Garage where my car is. I spoke to Mark who said that my car has no passed it's MOT. For those of you that don't know an MOT is a government vehicle test which the car must pass in order to be on the road. This set the ball rolling for my s14a to be back on the road. Insurance have now been paid for all modifications declared. Now what is left to do is just get tax and its back on the road :)

I f***ing can't wait for it to be back on the road...

So here is a picture by Devius87 of the car with a ghost of him walking by to celebrate:

Drift Mechaniks Video

I have seen this before a while back, but wasn't sure if I posted it. So the video was made by Drift Mechaniks which you can find here. They have secret drift days which they go on and frankly from the video, it looks like amazing fun. Very nice cars and amazing editing and video footage :)

Hope you all like it

Interesting Picture

Came across this picture just now via this blog. I think it put's things into easy to read perspective.

What I would like to point out is that the cost of running a car 440.8 gallons of fuel equates to one brand new "eco-friendly" car.

Lets say for example I would say an average person drives approximately 12000 miles per year; 1000 miles per month @ 18mpg which is 55 gallons per month. This will mean that you can run your car for 16 months.

IT COSTS MORE CARBON EMISSIONS TO BUY A NEW CAR THAN RUNNING AN OLD CAR FOR A YEAR!
