Car park barriers!
Has anyone tried driving in and out of a car park without paying, going under the barriers???? Just want to see if it can be done. I know it depends
on height of the barrier but if some have done it it could be a good larf!

Great idea - would save me a fortune when I have to take the g/f shopping. Roll bar may get in the way though! Need an auto lowering one.
Maybe some rotating plates too incase they have a camera (would also help with the speed cameras).

If it works we can tell the missus that building the car will save me money!

Excellent point there Austen! We can tell them that they will have more money for lip stick and hair spray!

Donut, looking at your avatar I think you will have to duck as well! And i don't think the missus will fit - beefcake!
I think we need a new section for Bond car mods that people have put on their cars. I quite fancy the side mounted skis and a rocket so I can take my
car skiing!
(love the avatar by the way - looks like a better version of Southpark Rally - "Beefcake" reg would look sweet)

LOL, no wonder you have that funny look on your face. Just wondering were the gearstick is though!
Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how much bigger the MK is than a Catarham? I sat in one a few years ago and it was a bit tight!

Caterham now do a wide body version which is very similar to the MK.
