Looking in your rear view mirror to see your passengers are asleep even though you are doing over 60 down a lane, but you have nailed the lines so smoothly that they aint even ruffled

When meh trusty panasonic MP3 player randomly picks a track I really wanna hear (I know i could just choose the track myself, but that just isn't the same )

Passengers? What are they?

Driver: Check.
Co-driver: Check.
Passengers...... passengers... passengers?

How about driving along at night, looking in the rear view mirror on a downchange or overrun, and noticing the area behind the car get brighter for a split second accompianied by a loud BANG!

He He - remember the first time my Uno Turbo did that to me.... had a HUGE (yes yes I know... I was a bit younger!!) Scorpion system on there..... going into a 90 deg corner, pops and bangs and then a HUGE flash..... scared the beejesus out of me... so had to do it again

I used to like the look on the ppls faces behind me before I did the breather mod, if you chuck an XE lump round a corner loads of oil would go straight up the breather into the inlet and then out the back making it look like you'd nuked your engine, car splutters a few times n then takes off again while there left sitting in a James Bond stylee smokescreen

Having someone up my backside down a country lane, going round a few corners and then coming out the last corner looking in my rear view to see how far behind they are

The way other mini's wave and flash, and girls wave when I drive past, and overhearing kids tell their mum 'I want one of those when I grow up'

Ok that's a few smiles, soz

oh boy do I remember that feeling me in my old Mini, Golf GTi boy sat on my ass... I nail it, take the corners as fast as felt safe.. a little way down the road I stop for petol, got out of the car and while I'm filling up the GTi boy pulls up behind me gets out of his car.. stares at my car.. stares at me bows his head, gets back in his car and drives off..

Barrelling down a single track lane in the Landy... and I can't help but grin as the dead 'ard bloke in his shiny Audi dives headlong into the hedge to let me past lol nothing argues with it.. nothing!!
