Just been over to the TT Forum for the first time in it must be 10 years.
How the hell is he claiming a profit?!
Even as a CAT D when he bought it the car was probably not far off £3,000 on its own!
Then I spotted this comment from him in the thread "Average age of zed pilots"
"I'm 25, bought mine when i was 23... and have spend north of 20k screwing mine up
"

Never a truer word!
I'm still gobsmacked he did all this to a 2.2i (sorry 2.2 owners) why didn't he start with at least a 3.0i and supercharge it If your going to spend that sort of cash?! At least it would have some real go to match all that pig ugly show!

Jonny essex said:Well f**k me its mugs like you Steve and the other comment from "Gasman" that I dont post or comment on here anymore, as you all know Ive gone very quite on here the past year or so and this is the first time in ages I've even read a thread and I find this s**t straight away, your just a couple of two faced f***s that talk bollox like a couple of little school girls behind my back.VRSteve said:MACK said:I'm still gobsmacked he did all this to a 2.2i (sorry 2.2 owners) why didn't he start with at least a 3.0i and supercharge it If your going to spend that sort of cash?!

I just cannot f***ing believe "some" of you boring mugs ARE still going on about why I modded a 2L ( because its not fast ) but then trying a Turbo ( to make it go faster ) .......I cant win and its f***ing pathetic!
Again its "some" members like you are the reason many dont post on this forum but just view same as me now, and also why I do not go to any meets either now, why should I waste my f***ing time, putting on the miles and wear and tear to share my Zed with members like this, when its them that have the boring tatty zeds half the time.
The 2.2L owners take the piss out of the 2L owners, the 2.5L take the piss out of the 2.2L owners, the 3L owners take the piss out of the 2.5L, the ///M owners take the piss out everyone, the E85 owners take the piss out of the E86 owners and vice versa, the E89 owners take the piss out of the E85/86 owners and vice versa, the E89 3.5L owners take the piss out of the other E89 owners, the guys with sport seats take the piss of the SE seat owners, the facelift Zeds take the piss out of the pre facelift owners.....it goes on and on and on and its f***ing boring me now, and I'm affraid and theres a big f***ing difference between banter ( which HAS to be face to face ) and being a two faced tosser ( behind your back when they think you not looking on here anymore ) , and these two guys are just two of the two faced tossers with their remarks.
I will let you all agree/disagree with this all you want, im sure and hope my last comment turns this into a 100 page thread now because thats what I do lol but sadly I wont be reading them tho, and can you believe its been nearly 4 years since I joined.......but now consider this as me leaving the forum on Christmas day.....I guess my last words will be Merry Christmas and I hope 2017 brings the forum changes it needs for the better, to those members I respect, helped and supported me I say thankyou.......this is jonny essex signing off.
While a lot of what you've written there may have been alcohol fuelled Johnny, sadly I have to agree with a lot of what you're saying.
Sometimes the Billy Big Bollocks pub talk, my engine's bigger than yours crap wears a bit thin.
The Mk1 E85 cars are in their early teenage years now and very cheap, until they get a few more years on their backs and become modern classics and attract true enthusiasts maybe things will change then.
I don't blame you for your decision mate.
Good luck for the future and I hope you at least keep hold of your Z4.
From a humble and lowly 2:2 owner.
Merry Christmas Johnny and Happy new year.

Excellent! Don't care if it is true because I enjoy my 2.5 auto (would have a 2.0, but no auto available). What was that comedy sketch about newspaper readers looking down on other readers, & sun readers not caring as long a she had big tits...2 Ronnys?
Great analysis of any motoring forum though, don't think the Zed one is alone.

although I disagree that 'banter' has to be 'in person' rather than on-line - there has been lost of quick one-liner posts between people that, in my book at least, qualified as 'banter' and, as a lot of you know, I won't post anything that I won't say in person (and, in truth, I'm probably willing to say a lot more in person :evil: ) but there are lot of keyboard warriors that are far too quick to have a pop at someone
I, for one, would like to see JE posting again. Yes, I used to take the piss out of him sometimes, but (and I hope JE will back me up on this) it was always in a good-natured, mates-down-the-pub, fashion rather than anything malicious...
I for one remember donating something after the mishap, and wanted the kid to succeed. Most of us did. Even though modding isn't my thing, good luck to him, I admire his enthusiasm. Don't understand the personal bashing tbh.Ant said:you lads give this idiot money???
so he buys a z4, starts trying to modify it, goes horribly wrong gives up, gets another car to try againlol f**k me
Merry Christmas
