    Well well. Show us how you use those cars.

    Here are few of mine when I bought it.




    Here is one of a friends who looks nice. Somehow looks from an old gangsta movie. The cops are just gaining on them.

    Best 8er pics from this years roadtrip. I'll start typing up that thread..



    Bottom of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road:


    On the Italian Autostrada:


    On the top of Passo Giao:


    Almost got stuck!


    Group pic:






    And i'll end with some pictures from the Nürburgring and camp:









    Notice the Kangoo and Audi behind me? The Kangoo is now dubbed the Ringoo, because both me and the Audi filmed its entire lap - the Ringoo chasing me, and the Audi chasing the Ringoo. The whole lap can be seen here:

    Here is a couple pics of my road trip back from Ft.McMurray Alberta to Lethbridge Alberta. My beast got hungry on the way and got a few Grouse. Got hit by three of them,I was going about 120kph. They came across the road from the far ditch.



    No damage,just pushed the grill in a bit.Once what was left of the bird was brushed away,I just pulled the grill out,and all is fine.

    4drian. This is pretty amazing. Must have been a blast. How many km did you drive and did it all go smoothly?

    The whole trip, from Kiel, round the alps, the ring and back to Kiel was ~4500km iirc. It did go smooth, despite the fact that my drivers seat height adjustment broke after a tall guy drove it and we had to take it apart and manually screw it back up More on that in the dedicated thread.

    Adrian, I feel you. Summer 2011 me and punch of other car maniacs drove from here Finland to Nurburing. Back then I had SVT Cobra Mustang but the trip was amazing. Best time ever. One best moments was when our group blasted tru Sweden and Denmark midle of night. In Denmark eaven police tryed to catch us but they gave up. Kiel was cool place. Drinked a lot and we visited, hmmm... in those special districts.

    Nope. There is a site in Poland where people of the street take photos of exotic cars on the street and I found me there
