... I feel that we should all sell our cars, and purchase a Micra.
We just cannot compete with the power of those little beasts!

i never knew how good they were, if only i had known about their mighty strengths.
DO NOT MESS WITH THESE CARS.
The 1.3 SR must be unreal power.

prehaps he has just overtaken these cars and assumed he has "beaten" them. I get little neds in 1.0ltr and 1.2ltr, come past me, where they been building up speed for a mile behind u and then they slowly float by and think they have won some sort of race i didn't even know i was in
