BV> The last car I bought new was my HDT VL Calais. The new VR is a

  Multipoint injection is as smooth as shit. The Skyline has a small
bug in the computer, though. I can get slightly better acceleration if
I just put the foot down gently. If I floor it, I think it runs a
touch too rich, and once begun, it keeps rich.

  Yair... never buy v1.0 of anything!

 BV> It is the dark blue which Holden call Genesis and I've had the

 BL> Bloody hoon! Thw girl next door had one of those and it looked
 BL> great!

 BV> Shit. Now you're telling me I've bought a "girls" car. It's a
 BV> darn good thing that Patricia will be driving it more often
 BV> than me :(

  The girl next door is a strange bird. Her previous car was an SLR
Torana, repainted in irridescent chocolate brown. It was Beootiful! I
wept every time she drove off, with me in a Datsun 180B. And then she
stuffed her brand-new one into a telegraph pole and totalled it.

 BV> The body kit consists of the front and rear extensions from the

 BV> It looks nice and it has the desired effect too.

  I love your wheels. I bet they get stole in six months - if not by
the local hoos, then me! And they won't even fit the Skyline. I'd
frame then and hang them on the wall. When you drove up the hill, the
light shone and sparkled on those revolving spokes, with wall-to-wall
rubber all over the road. I was sexually aroused.

  It certainly is a pretty thing... you ought to give it a proper
wash.
