Softlad & Son heading south onto Harbour bridge today. Car is looking Tiiiiiiiiiiight!
Is the rear spoiler on a switch or is it speed activated as Jake thought that was awesome when it popped up. 8)

When they first came out in the UK the spoiler was activated a 75mph ( for the autobahns) so if a copper saw you with the spoiler up he knew you were speeding

Haha I just put that up and down for a laugh, there's a switch on the dash to put it up/down manually. Yeah the UK ones come up at 80km/h from factory I think and kiwi ones come up at 120km/h. I can't notice the difference but apparently volkswagen can!

Yes sir! Going nuts getting 1,000,000 things done this week. Where were you?

I was turning right at cook st in the MK4 golf, you stopped next to me at the lights but didn't realise what I was sitting next to until you pulled away! Looking smooth though, and some nice sounds coming out the window...

How do they look Simon?

Bit like an A5 but A8 sized. Nice but not exciting.

Have been driving by a nice Nissan GTR R35 in the mornings parked at Holden.  (GT3ETA)  Wondered why it was there.  But saw today it had new plates.

Maybe a trade?  Trade in a GTR R35!?  Not good enough eh?  Or too good...(I'm hoping!).   Love those cars!  (well what I've seen that they can do)
