Lifetime Members 306 Member For: 21y 10m 7d Gender: Male Location: Geelong Posted 23/01/04 03:26 AM Share Posted 23/01/04 03:26 AM so far wrong its not funny! its a bit like the rumour I was told that the BA rear suspension was so bad that the rear tyre could rub on the fuel tank! I grabbed this person and shoved them under my car to show them that the only way that could happen is if the tyre managed to chew its way through the chassis rail and the like first! all bull sh*t!
