Cheers. Ste

wow 6.5ft OMFG
jESUS CHRIST, he was saying it becuase, it sounded like you were just try to outdo what everyone else had said.
You then come back with how tall your dad is, which proves the whole point.
You ahve completely missed the point of what was said,

not really people just dont like being out done on here and if they dont like the sound of something its automatically bullshit and you get slated for it etc how is 2 engines a 2 gearboxes in a car un realistic? 10 maybe yeah but 2 isnt at all
