I'm wanting dryer weather, as have been having a bit too much fun in the Skyline in this wet weather.

Mmm, manual rear wheel drive loses traction much easier than a 4WD auto. ;) :D

One of you ToySpeeders was behind me at the lights at Filleul St yesterday, rolla_fxgt? Silver Corolla with large Toyspeed sticker on front windscreen anywho. (sorry, i really suck with remembering names/cars sometimes :().

Should ask if my brother wants TS stickers for his Supra.

yeah, its such a hassle. :x

whats worse, is my car isn't waterproof OR airtight. sucks when you go out at night and theres already a frost all over the car, then have to drive at 100km/h for 30 minutes with air rushing through the car :lol:

*must get heater*

My cars roof leaks and I now have wet seats and carpet.

I want it to stop raining so I can dry out the inside of the car.

I will be in Wellington in a few days and will have a garage finally so that may help. :lol:

Also makes driving an MR2 a bit of fun, sh*tty hard front tyres makes it understeer then oversteer.

Been quite enjoying driving in it, also it's quite good excuse to crank the fireplace and attach oneself to the missus whilst watching a movie.
