jumped out and told me that she wasn't driving my car again cause it was s**t and didn't speak for the rest of the way home. lol

Too funny. Unfortunately all of our M35's are auto, so we cant have such fun I think my missus would love the challenge I was able to do something similar though.

[Sunkist]

just got my new clutch installed and gave the missus a try at driving it, she bunny hopped first, stalled on the change to second, restarted, stalled first. put the hazards and handbrake on (leaving the car in the lane) jumped out and told me that she wasn't driving my car again cause it was s**t and didn't speak for the rest of the way home. lol

haahah i can see that happening in my head.. just needs the classis "stop yelling at me, its tooo hard to concentrate with you yelling in my ear"

LOL, you should have said "not with that negative attitude, you're not" then laughed. Shame on her lack of commitment!

Hahaha. It sounds like your partners are opposite to my misses. She likes to give the 260RS a bit of a flogging and stir up the odd bogan. I bought her a Mini Cooper S with JCW kit and she complains it's too slow. Hits her favourite corner on the way home and has the traction control light flashing

Now we just bought an old Ford GT40 replica as a project car. That should be fun

OK, as requested. It's not in great shape, but it's gonna be an awesome project.

It actually has a 350 Chev. Some people would say this is sacrilege, but who cares.

[Sunkist]

niiiiiceee! you should link us to a build thread if you have.. would love to see it

So good when I was borrowing my housemates stag the other day, he told me to park it in the multi-story behind his work and there just happened to be a spare spot with a volvo v70 next to it in the same colour as his stag! Epic trolls, he was sad.

hehehehe, bloody nice car though

just got my stagea last weekend and in the space of less than a week, i saw at least 1 volvo v-series wagon everyday...thought wtf is going on here?

then today went to one of my usual workshop to machine the rear rotors, the guy said to me that he thought it was a volvo...i just grinned and remembered how every other m35 owner has their first 'i thought it's a volvo' moment

[Marshstag]

I just bought my Stagea in Melbourne on Friday. Went out to tea that evening and came back to the room to find a letter under the door:

"Mr Marshall,

We believe you are the owner of a White Volvo Registration ***-***.

Please note your headlights have been left on.

Kind Regards,

Reception"

That has to be some sort of record in Stagea-Volvo confusion! In my defence, it was only the inside light, not the headlights

[captinsane]

had a few moments in the last week...

Had a mate from training giggling telling me it sounded like the starship enterprise on boost more than a volvo...

Had someone ask if it was a hearse the other night too... 5 years after buying it and I still love the attention it gets from randoms. Lol.

[bigkevracer]

I stilll get the herse comment from the woman, keep threatening to turn it into one...

[Sunkist]

some seedy dude in dandenong told me he wanted to rear end my volvo. i drove off as quickly as i could.

Classic.

Yep. I the short time I've had my car not one person has guessed its a Nissan. Pretty much all of them thought it was a Volvo. Its actually starting to shit me off a bit!

[SatchiThaStagea]

Did ask him if he was going to slap her or if i should..
