Club Arnage

As we've not had a Poll for a while, and by special request by Matt, here's a light hearted return to the world of camper vans (again....)  ;D

Now that is very funny. Well done Steve, spat me coffee out again.

Cool , another poll ,


Shame there wasnt a Converted Coach option.


 :D

You could count that as "something I knocked up in the garage"

You'd need a HUGE garage for that one. I cant even find space for the mini.

Although thoughts of the Italian Job are coming into light

Does "something I knocked up in the garage " include the girl next door ?

True, but hopefully she won't come knocking on your door 9 months later !!

Surprisingly, I wouldn't choose any of the above. But I'm not going to bore you with my obscure camper of choice or indeed the reasons why. Many of you will have seen it on MB though.

Andy's camper,  A C O   Stand by !!!!!

Surprised to see no votes for the Converted Hearse option. I guess the Chrysler P/T Cruiser owners club hasn't found CA yet then?

LOL

A mate a mine had to go to Scotland on business recently. His company car was in for a service so he drove his colleague's PT Cruiser up. Whether it was because he is black, or because of the car (or a combination of both) as he went down the main street in Hamilton people were just standing and staring and pointing at him as he drove down the road.

Mine is the one pictured left but after taking my dad to the classic LM last year he said he would never go again unless we take his 34foot Allegro Bay.

Point made.

Easy, there. I have a PT and it's a fine little car. Looks a bit f**ked-up and it's not exactly quick off the mark, but it has a certain charm and is a refreshing change from the jelly-mould shapes of just about everything else on the road these days. Friends refer to it as "Chuggaboom".

Yes Matt, but is it safe?

Ah, the wanderer returns. Where you been, Haich?
I don't really know if it's safe - I hardly ever drive the bleddy thing. It doesn't appear to be anti-social, overtly aggressive or psychotic.
My daughter uses it mainly and given that she has most positively inherited some of my leadfootedness, I'm quite relieved that it is as gutless as it is.
I'm not aware of any nasty issues with the car - but you've got me all worried now.......

The PT Bruiser should be relatively safe as I'm pretty sure its a dressed up Neon.  Not terribly quick but will take a pretty big impact wel.l  While this isn't LM related, for years we used to take my buddies 1975 Chrysler RV to Talladega for the spring race.  It was a bit of a rolling nightmare, on the trip down the bog was stuffed full of supplies (mostly cases of brew).  This beast had an annoying habit of developing some sort malady during the ten hour drive down or back.  Throwing balancing weights, water pumps giving out, ignition dramas, etc.  Everytime we ran over a large bump, we half expected our weekend's supply of beer to fall through the badly rusted underside. Then there was trying to sleep five or six smelly f**k*rs inside for four days....

Don't worry Matt! -put the wheels back on.
If I'd used the icon which gave "is it safe" a pronounced sibillance with the whirr of a dentists drill in the background then it all would have been clear.

I must admit, it had occurred to me that Big H might have gone all 'Lord Olivier' on me - on account of some of my earlier movie quote postings - but then again, try as a might, I just couldn't recall Sir Larry asking Dustin, "Yes Matt, but is it safe?"
Thank you anyway - I should have got it and I will be vigilant for further subtle clues.
Account for your absence Big H, your pithy pith-taking has been sorely missed by many, I'm sure.
Matt

Hi Matt,
Maybe it's time for a dentists chair and instruments in Maison Blanche, that'll keep some the boys on their toes alright, you wouldn't be so quick to fall into a blissfull bladder-relaxing drunken stupor if there was someone even more trousered than you dallying with reality and an air-drill just behind you. 'Aggresive Pliers' could really live up to their name, I know, let's have a competition, see who can collect the most teeth...
I'm afraid my absence was due to work not pleasure, there were no communications and intermittent electricity, and I admit a part of my brain heaved a sigh of relief when the cellphone went blank. I did stay overnight in Miami though, as usual just long enough to empty my wallet and soil my pants.
H

Hmm, Miami - city of lights and murderous hispanics. South Beach is nice for great big wobbly tits and over-priced cocktails, but I'm not a big fan of the place. Of course, Champion Motorsports are based up at Pompano Beach, which is well worth a visit (if only to see their R8 in the showroom amongst some very exotic Porsches). I believe Moslers are made in Ft Lauderdale also.
Equipping yourself for peridontal torture in Maison Blanche? I think it's a capital idea and would make a very attractive alternative to Jamiroqui.

Looking at the current poll leader, it would appear there's a lot of light weights here who like to indulge in a plush, comfortable big motorhome.  ::)

The"Plush" motorhomes are generally "in our dreams".However for the past 5 years "the shed" has been a good companion to our group,and it has only failed once,dur to a shatterd drive shaft bearing in 2001.
If I had my choice it would be a 42' motorhome for the event ........our own clean toilet pull out barbie,shower.....proper kitchen and even satellite tv for the bits when not in the village drinking,or whaterver you do!!!!!!.

Wishy

?????? say what, is that a convenient sex toy for when the need occurs ?????
