    It starts with the solid thump of the heavy door shutting you into the silent cocoon of leather and steel, the quality of the fittings damping the sound of your expectant breath as you settle into the soft welcoming glow of the cockpit. As you slot the 4 ringed key into the dashboard and twist it half a turn, the computer lights with a reassuring OK, as the interior light softly fades, and the faint sound of the fuel pump priming signals the first stirrings of the beast. Swiftly turning the stereo volume down as the cacophony left from your last sojourn breaks the calm, you turn the key fully and the car softly shudders into life with a offbeat thrum, the purring engine sending small shivers through the car as the ECU adjusts the idle. You can't resist giving the hinged accelerator a touch of pressure and feeling the faint twist of torque as the engine hammers up a few thousand revs, and relishing in the popping from the exhaust as the revs die back to the steady hum of idle...

    ...does that give you a starting point?

    Spot on!

    Its not just me then that gets in the car and thinks "bloody hell that was loud last time out"!

      Oh yeah that reminds me of another job that needs doing - they're only hinged at the top until the hinge snaps with a soft but sickening snapping - almost tearing - sound of plastic giving way.

      Ck.
      Shocked, exhausted, hosed, bushed, dumped, chipped, mounted, filtered, gauged, packed, intermittantly wiped and braked. I mean broken. Now, about the car...

        You must not forget the looks outside

        She's curved like Marilyn Monroe, a bit chubby at the bottom and a waistline high. Her eyes are bright, almost innocent, hiding perfectly of her true nature.

        She likes to show off her round tail. Especially for her Japanese rivals.

        Very unlike Monroe, the song she performs, does not jiggle. It is pure aria, like Montserrat Caballe and Caruso had sex in helium.

        Then again it's just a car. With jamming ISV and squeaky bootlid.
        Everything less than 2 bar is considered to be naturally aspirated

          Lol just to add.....

          She has a nice kick up the backside when she gets her act in gear but unfortunately has a bit of a drinking problem, not to worry not the most beautiful gal in the shop a bit wide bottomed but has her followers and once with her people tend to stick by her mostly due to the huge amounts it costs to keep her in the lifestyle she ends up with.... unfortunately a few people havn't been able to keep hold of her and she has to be sent to specialists like audibits.
