Is it hard to get the stains out of one's underwear after greasing one's trunnions?

to spice things up maybe a debate as to how ugly the +2 is? or if you have an ugly +2 why cut the roof off and think it will look better?

sorry in advance for the offence this will cause but someone had to say it and will spice up the "bbboooooorrriiinnnggg" bits!

cheers

Well if we are going to knock the +2 (which is obviously far more superior) we will have to knock the
BABY ELAN , yes the BABY BABY BABY ELAN There I said it!

It's true...the baby Elan looks like a hairdresser's car!

And check the threads on Zetec height, they are not all like 4x4s.

Here we go....
I am now an ex-Elan owner but will drop by from time to time with some suitably inappropriate comments.

It would appear that some listers are harbouring pent up frustrations here and are obviously trying to compensate for their deep sence of inadequacy by acquiring a large and rather ugly underpowered car, (PEOPLE....bigger is NOT always better) they then fit a modern engine, suspension and transmission pretending that it is a "classic" ......sorry but you are only fooling yourselves! :lol: :lol:
Well Z owners the only way you will rid yourself of these deeprooted feelings of frustration is to eliminate the cause of these character flaws and buy a genuine original Elan, admit it, subconsciously that's what you REALLY WANT! :wink:
