In my experience getting in and out of an Exige is difficult no matter where it is parked!

BTW: early 911 caught in the reflection, nice..
yeahhh nope..

In the US it's a thing too. Keying in general. Go into a public bathroom, random things have been keyed into the walls, stall door, toilet porcelain, tile, etc.

Not at all. We have the same number of assholes per capita. Some park on sidewalks. Some are passive-aggressive vandals.

I know that in most places on your side of the pond, due to generally narrower streets, the two-wheels-up method is accepted. Not so much here. :/

Oh, pretty much the same sort of stuff, the newbies are still wondering if their FA-20 engine sounds are normal; the trolls are still trolling; @Sapphireho is still driving his tin can; @Ultramaroon is still evading questions by posting electrical diagrams; @Spuds is still preparing for his wedding; @Clipdat is still spanking his monkey in the bathroom; @Tcoat is still being Tcoat ; @spike 021 is, well just is.


So, ZOMFGAARON, we haven't seen your ugly face around for a while, what you been up to?
