Twice now I've seen this weird sedan (different cars) with permanent CFL-like running lights and LED tail lights and it bugs me that I don't know what it is...!

I know, life is hard... :lol:

YESSS thats it. The first one I saw was at night and was white but I swear it had a black roof, looked really good (I thought it was a mondeo until I got a bit closer).
The front running lights were on even with the headlights, looked very nice.

Now I'm all confused, I hate kia :lol:

And naww Graham shouldn't have sold it then you idiot :P

yeah they have black roofs cuz the whole roof is glass or most of it anyway... pretty amazing bit of kit for a korean car and under 40k..... engine is pretty nippy too.... but it is still a kia though.... but they have made leaps and bounds from previous models...

hahaha nah not a kia :P

I'll probably lean more towards a skyline, a series 2 r33 gtst probably as i've always wanted one (and the 34 GTT is a tiny bit out of my price range atm)

as the bike is playing up a little at the moment I think i'll get something with 250+rwkw so I can still have a bit of fun if i want to :P

Then in about a year or so I'll get a 09+ R1 :p

+100

I detest the Panamera almost as much as I love the Maserati, best "saloon" in the world for pure menace and presence.

I don't have a bias for Italian cars, promise! :P
