Re: How To Know You're A British Sports Car Fanati

When a 4 car garage isn't big enough to hold your current TR-6 and the two you have your eye on from Ebay!! And your wife won't hear about parking her Z-3 outside so you can have more room!! Ha!

You're driving down a major highway and as you're maintianing a 360 view of the vehicles around you and planning an escape route if things turn bad, you realise that you could slip right under the transport beside you and come out 2 lanes over !?!

All right, but as mentioned before, all this could be true for any auto fanatic. What makes us, British sports car fanatics, special?
I don't know:
I like coffee and hate tea...
I like Belgian beer (the only real beer in the world) and hate English beer...
I hate English weather (which is almost the same as belgian weather)...

How about when you pull the TR3 out into the snow and decide it is just too darn slippery for that squirrelly rear end and take the beater MGTD instead....
