Algemene groet DF'ers
Omdat DF steeds groter en groter wordt, is de kans dat je een bekende tegenkomt steeds groter. Vaak kom ik wagens op de weg tegen waarvan ik het idee heb dat ze hier ook op het forum actief zijn. Zo zag ik volgens mij Rico laatst in zen M3. (hij kwam alleen zo idioot hard voorbij dat ik de kans niet kreeg om hem te groeten 8) ). Heeft iemand misschien een idee om een teken aan elkaar te geven waardoor we zeker weten dat het DF'ers zijn.
Misschien een beetje idee op "padvinder" niveau maar wel zo leuk (lijkt mij!!)

Ik heb bovenstaande ongeveer een jaar vol gehouden. Toen was ik dermate financieel ad fundum dat ik maar ben gaan sparen. Ik draag nu al een half jaar mijn '' sensible trousers'' en zie mijn prive vermogen steeds een beetje groeien. Maar toch, g*ddomme wat wil ik weer een strakke RWD'er hebben.
Ik rij dus momenteel de C30. Prima bak, maar wát HAAT ik onderstuur. Wat onmetelijk kut is dat. Nee, doe mij maar RWD dat heb ik voor mijn gevoel veel beter onder controle.
* Hoezo offtopic posten, ik schrik er zelf bijna van!

Of de 'Ik rij graag hart' sticker van Dinkel (vervang 'hart' door een hartje).
Ik heb het niet zo op stickers. Er zit maar 1 sticker op m'n auto. En dat is de klassiekerrally.nl sticker op m'n achterruit. Meer plakdingen komen er niet op.
