The 4litre Beater Club

[Magnificent Rustbucket]

Mine should receive an honorary qualification since it is said to use even more petrol than the 4 litre can manage - thereby fulfilling the central Autoshite requirement of coupling milk float performance with supercar economy. And it has electric headrests.

As we said after the commoners had left in the Austin, if the Daimler turns up to a fight the occupants will cheerfully beat you up whilst commenting on the weather. If the Lexus turns up to a fight then you're in trouble as you're about to get a samurai sword inserted into places where it shouldn't go.

Nah mate, a Lexus would never turn up to a fight, cos the owner would be too ashamed that they could not afford an actual Luxury car, instead buying an Camry that had been fattened like a veal calf.

I have done driven the Lexus and I may have licked it a bit so therefore it is mine.

That Lexus is absolutely the most discreet way to reach Warp Factor Eleventy with absolutely no drama.

That'll buff out

[explosive-cabbage]

How did that happen?!?

[vulgalour]

My car has no badges dictating the engine size and since its model designation begins with a 4 you'd have to believe me if I told you that refers to the number of litres it displaces.  It is a quality vehicle with wood and velour on the inside and a prestigious British manufacturer's emblem proudly emblazoned on the exterior.

 

If this is not qualification enough, the very first car I drove after passing my test was a Mk1 Lexus LS400.

I'm 400cc short

 

I'm 600cc over

[Tickman]

Having had a shot of the Daimler Can I just say 'it is lovely' I have been wondering why I prefer it to the Lexus and can only assume the reason is the Lexus is too good at what it does. 

After the brothers had departed the Lexus £1 balanced on the engine test was performed, it just stays there stood on end!

[Supernaut]

I'm 400cc short

I'm 400cc short too, if I combine both the Xantia and the 316.

[oman5]

I'll take a membership but I'll be wanting some change.

[xtriple]

Ooooh, please Sir, can I play?

 

British. V8. Leather and wood. lousy fuel consumption.

 

6750cc.

 

With a turbo that displaces more than a mere 4 litres!

[cort16]

If i turn up bursting for a piss it may give me the extra 400cc I need.
