New Beast

Postby Glen » Wed Aug 01, 2012 7:33 am

Well not a bike so not that exciting, but just got the car that comes with the new job, not quite a new car ie 40,00klm's but close enough.

2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee..... 2 odd tonne of Detroit Steel (with a touch of Merc to gay it down a little) with a stonking 5.7L Hemi in it. There are holes in the ozone layer developing as we speak. I wasn't sure what to expect but it's a pretty sensational bit of kit, has everything in it you could possibly want and some stuff you don't.

As they say in the classics...... "America....Fuck Yeah!!!!"

Yeah the diesel would've been good but the V8 is nice...in a totally non environmental kind of way.

No way Pinchy, my car needs to tow a 1.7tonne boat, that little Pink thing of yours would be flat out pulling a YZ450F Motard...oh and you can keep your personalised plates too.........
