*sigh.......*

aren't you dead yet? could you please hurry and like, end yourself?

And we all know how good the frogs are at car design...........long live the citreon, the renault, and the peuguot, with out a doubt the three ugliest looking cars ever made.

:bs!:

C'mon Trident, don't be so one-eyed. You might have missed the fact that Citreon, Peugeot and Renault are makes, with a whole range of cars and histories going back over 100 years each. Did you know Peugeot claim to have made the world's second car, in 1889, one year after Benz did the first? Obviously not. So you know how good the frogs are at car design?!! Dismissing them as "the three ugliest looking cars ever" just puts you in the same book as the "I hate the other lot", narrow minded Falcadore lovers. In case you missed it, the Peugeot 607 Coupe was voted by the World's motoring press as one of the most beautiful cars ever. Only seen a handful in Oz, but a marvelous car. Peugeot have been World Rally Champions loads of times and are still leaders in that sport. The Citreon DS series and the Renault 5, whilst idiosyncratic, were the most innovative cars of their day and used technology way ahead of the rest of the world. (If you have a 4x4 with self levelling air suspension, thank the designers of the Citreon DS, in the 1960s!!) Peugeots and Renaults are just about the only cars to buy in Africa -they are the only cars to stand up to African roads and conditions, because their construction is so rugged.

I am not a fan of the French or their cars, but I cannot stand people being dismissive in their attitudes. If you are supposed to be a car enthusiast, you should know more about them! Give credit where it is due. Otherwise, you just descend to the level of the one make, one eyed bigots, who allow the Australian motor manufacturers to continue to give us crap and then prevent us bringing in to this country what we actually want to drive!!

Just thought you might like to ponder that!

Cheers.

Being first doesn't mean its good...............

 Obviously not.  So you know how good the frogs are at car design?!!  Dismissing them as "the three ugliest looking cars ever" just puts you in the same book as the "I hate the other lot", narrow minded Falcadore lovers.  

I didn't say that, I quite like some other automobiles, I actually like the look of my Skyline, I also happen to like the look of Supra's, Monaro's, De Tomasa's, Lotus's, GTHO's, Corvette's, '68 Mustangs, Transam's, Ferrari's, etc etc etc

Big wank, they hand out credos to a lot of cars, some [such as the Austin Marina] won many awards, didn't help them, they faded into a long forgotten history.........

 Peugeot have been World Rally Champions loads of times and are still leaders in that sport.

As are the Evo, the WRX, and the Corolla, but they don't own Nissan, so are not mentioned........................

You want innovation, try anything from just about any manufacturer, Cadillac, Jaguar, Lincoln, Ferrari, etc etc etc

 Peugeots and Renaults are just about the only cars to buy in Africa -they are the only cars to stand up to African roads and conditions, because their construction is so rugged.

Ya gotta be kiddin' me, remember apartheid, the french were one of the few nations that ignored it [unofficially]. Anyway, all I've ever seen in Africa was Landrovers, and they are a whole new novel...................................

I'm fine with that, I don't want to drive any Citreon, Peugeot, or Renault, never, ever, period..................................  

Just thought you might like to ponder that!

The V35 still looks like a recycled Citreon, I have res-ponder-d [apologies for the spelling.]

Cheers.

unless they put a 5ltr, push rod, 2 valve per cylinder donk in the new skyline you'll never seen it run against the likes of v8 supercars, who cares anyway, already beat them at that game a few times, do you really need to embaress them again, they will just make a new formatt up again and rule the nissan out. thing i can't get my had around is they don't even run the V8's they sell there cars with!!!!!!

Personally I'm not sold on the new shape, looks like a maxima!

Hi I just got my hand on the v35 maxima look alike I am with you I don't go for the look at all But the rest of the car is sweet

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
