But it isn't a Lexus. If I'm going to buy any car because I want it. It won't be Japanese. Or American pretending to be Japanese or anything like that. I just want something that will make people think you stole it because it's so good. Like a BMW Z4. Though they are expensive.

A Z4 makes you look like a hairdresser. A Lexus makes you look important. Plus, the cops with there slow V6 Commodore's won't be able to keep up. :sly:

A Lexus makes you look like I like overpriced Toyota with a few extras thrown in! :sly:

Jaguar XK8? $16,000? :sly:

The Lexus LS400 set the benchmark for luxury cars. And they were over $100,000 US brand-new.

You'll look like someone who wanted a Jaaagggg, but couldn't afford to do it properly so settled for the half-baked model. Like a Z4. :sly:

Looks better than a LS400 though. And if get a Jaaaaagg, it means I can get away with running over people or their pets. :sly:

You don't have a license, so you can't legally drive or own a car.

Yeah, I know but that's not part of the terrible excuse for an argument is it. It's not really related. I could go and get a license. I just can't be bothered.

PS: I'm not sure if you were actually taking this seriously or not.

That I've finished our IT booklet and now I'm browsing the web, although I'm meant to be doing some extension thing, but I can't really be bothered.
 
Having my tax self assessment return filed on time with payment organised really does oil my gears.
 
The fact that CIC are making immigration to Canada easier for younger people. :sly:

Now it looks like me and the Mrs have two options. 👍

I'm serious about getting the Lexus, but it was just friendly banter. :)
 
I started Auto shop today. I walked in and there were cars on hoists. It smelled like oil and car, and I knew I was at home.
 
How should you know, have you stepped on a slug today? Thought not :sly:

Seriously, I did, it was massive. Grey and orange.

Grey and orange? What incredible species do you have up north? :lol: And I guess you mean you slipped on a slug, tripping is probably the wrong word...
 
We have disgusting orange slugs down here in Hampshire
It oils my gears to put them in salty water and watch them shrivel.
