The 1.8TS badge on the back is a bit surprising given the other looks.
A lot of appearance for something quite slow..doesn't make sense to
me.

Leave it in Ireland - if I saw it on a UK road, I'd probably drive
into the nearest hedge in sheer terror !

No.

Here's an idea for all the boy racers out there. Let's say you have a budget
of £4000 to spend on a car...

The NED would spend less that £1000 on the car (perhaps Clio, Saxo etc) and
the remaining £3000+ on accessories - glow in the dark paint, furry dice,
snakeskin seats, an annoying exhaust to make the 1.2L sound noisy, some
illegal tinted front windows, new wheels, a spoiler to slow the already slow
car down, transparent rear light clusters, different shaped wing mirrors, a
boot full of speakers and a burbery cap.

Someone with a little sense would spend £3500 on the car (much larger choice
of vehicle), £300 on a decent service and any updates or fixes require and
lets splash out £50 on cleaning equipment and accessories, perhaps £50 on
some new footmats and the rest on beer to celebrate the new purchase.

Given that they call themselves boy 'racers' surely means to me that the
larger engined, better specced, faster, 'less weighed down with crap' car
will be significantly racier than the miniature pimp-mobile!

He holds his hands up in an 'american' W shape and says, 'Whatever'!
