So why "Lil" Dave?

I'll have a guess.

Is it because your name's David and your not very tall or being ironic and you're huuuuuuuge?

Hello anyway :)

Well to be 100% truthful mate its nothing to do with...well you know...
in our "group" there is a lad callewd james who is big. these girls thought he was called dave so he got called big dave, i was a little smaller and got called lil dave and it stuck.

not a great story but 100% accurate :D

plus been weight traing for a while now, so the lil dave thing is kinda of a nick name now...

Hi,

The US got a Manual Aero...the rest of the world didn't.
Aero's = Auto's as far as you are concerned in this country.

There is an FAQ section in Technical that should help you sort out what's what model wise :) :thumbs:

Lil Dave

25-07-05, 16:21

ahh right, cheers fella, not been anywhere else apart from this thread.....yet ;)

Welcome aboard mate, im just down the road in Preston.

To answer your above question, its got to be a TT. another lad on here, Wez_p was considering something similar so took him for a spin in mine. 3 weeks later hed bought a TT. If you want me to take you for a spin you're welcome, and trust me afterwards you wont even consider an NA (not that there's anything wrong with them though).

Thats the big debate on here. The book says tehy are 280 but they are really 326bhp. Ive gone BPU with mine and am looking at about 360. Let me know if you wanna meet up and you can have a blast.
