Title: Exotic Rides Wanted
Post by: Stu on May 27, 2003, 10:48:18 pm
Right,
As I spend most of my time driving around in my tatty Citroen ZX Turbo Diesel, I thought the time has come for me to try and scrounge a few rides in some exotic machinry whilst I am at Le Mans. You know the sort, Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, TVR's, Mitsubishi Evo's, Lancia Delta Evo's etc etc. This is purely so that when we are drooling over the Auto Trader/ Classic Marquees during tea break at work, I can say (OK then brag), "I've been in one of those, fantastic etc etc". So if any kind person would like to have my rotund body squeezed into their passenger seat for 5 mins or so, please leave details below.

All offers considered.

Stu

Well Stu.......

If the showers on Houx Annexe aren't to your liking we'll probably take the Fiat Uglicar off to the Carrefour every day for fresh supplies if you fancy a spin   ;D

Or I might take the Mogan Plus 8 out one day if you fancy it  ;) Not a lot of room for food and booze though!!  :(

How about a bike with four wheels (and two engines)... I'm coming down in this again this year http://www.zcars.org.uk/z100.htm (http://www.zcars.org.uk/z100.htm) along with about 8 other bike-engined-cars. If you see (or hear me) you 'll have to shout as I'll be a bit deaf after driving all the way down there  ;D

Mrs RS2 babe and I blagged a good go in an F40 in Geneva in the summer. My go lasted about 15 mins but she was gone an hour and came back with her hair a mess and her skirt on inside out - that must have been a hell of a journey - perhaps they got lost???? I'm sure that the playboy good looking, expensively smelling (apparently) owner of 10 other Ferrari's including the first Enzo just took a wrong turn!?!?!?

If you look for wine tasting, some CA members meet friday morning at 10 am at the church square of Le Grand Lucé to a visit of 1 or 2 local wine producers.

Sure that  would change of beer mountains!  ;D

We'll have a Diablo and an Anniversaty Countach and if tight arse Chris feels like it, a Zonda arriving on friday ( he normally comes down in a crap volvo, although he did bring his 355 cos he had a new bird with him last year) plus a whole bunch of other german nonsense.
Simon is always up for scaring the f**k*ng crap out of anyone in his SV so you may get lucky, but bring fresh underware as he drives like a complete c**t. He arrives on KN on friday.
He hit 320kmh last year on the 138 so be warned.

 ??? According to continental point of view, is the MG girls the only one British chicks ? Or does it it exists more than a dozen of pretty girls on the other side of the Channel ?  ???

Gilles,

Such accusations. If you came to Newcastle Upon Tyne for a night out, your jaw would drop. As well as it being the number 9  night out in the world ( Out of top 10 nights out), the women are fantastic and plentiful. In fact a necessary item for when one goes out is the s h i t t y stick.
I'm sure a few members on this site could back that up as well.

We have LOTS of pretty women here Gilles.

They just don't choose to go to France cos they don't like the men there...

Nice one Smokie.

Gotta agree with Stu.
Newcastle is a fantastic night out.
Especially Buffaloe Joes on the Quayside (bar staff all in bikinis!!)

The place at the top of the Bigg Market used to have barmaids in bikini's. They were trained to give a good show too - bending over in just the right way when you asked for a chilled beer...

I enjoyed my few months up there... (Newcastle, that is, not some barmaid's backside...!!!)

Noisey, flames out of the exhaust, good enough to cook old ladies varicose ulcers and carbs that suck like good un's

I saw a magazine in Thomas Cook the other day that catered for these sort of holidays.
A fortnight up a barmaids backside in Newcastle came in pretty good value. Although personally I think I'd go continental. A long weekend in a maids cleavage in Brussells caught my eye. Stay clear of the week in a waiters pants in Budapest, two weeks for the price of one as well.
Incidentally, respect is due to the workers of Scottish and Newcastle breweries. It was their skill and craftsmanship that was responsible for my lavatory escapades mentioned elsewhere.
