Nope - all there and quite nice. A little bit leggy, but so what.

Having said, that I don`t really see the point when I think about it.

On the other hand..... will a tidy 166 ever be worth a lot less than

that?



I reckon they`ve really hit the bottom of their depreciation curve - you

just have to look at the prices a really tidy 164 will sell for to see

that.



(Yes, sheds are worth fuck all, but a nice 164 V6 will still fetch £2k)

Title: Well I'm already here, so might as well....

I really arrived at the posting page to see if there actually was a future posting thing so you could have your posts be published at a certain time after you write them. After I found out it did exist I started to think of all the possibilities. How about a blog written while you are slowly dying and then published, post by post, after you are gone. IMAGINE HOW CREEPY THAT WOULD BE? so we will not be trying that toda(what about a kid planning to commit suicide???? still creepy?)y. I insure you that I am a minimum of 82.5% alive at the time of writing which IS ALSO THE TIME OF POSTING THANK YOU VERY MUCH!(well sort of)

On another thought completely, I, myself, the person writing this, am none to partial to American cars, the build quality stinks and they cant turn without the aid of a turntable (I know I’m being to critical but……..forgot what I was going to say…. anyway). The somewhat new Dodge Challenger is awesome, it’s cool, has nice wheels, and the engine isn’t bad….. Well there you have it, now you know of the only American I would spend money on……..

M3’s, it’s weird, everyday when I walk home, I always see at least 1(my record is 3), it’s strange, I didn’t think it was THAT popular of a car…. hmm what do I know?

OOOO now I can be contacted at cwylie27@ymail.com :) e-mail me so I can ignore all the fan mail and feel self-righteous…. actually I will probably be so excited, I actually got an e-mail because of this blog that I will spontaneously combust…… If you’re too lazy I’ll make it easy for you here are some links to possibly your e-mail provider

hotmail yahoo gmail otheremailaddress

If they don’t work just type manually because really how hard is it? AND you might even burn 1/64TH of a calorie ooooooooooo
