I like this game! These were my scores from this past week:







If you notice the scratches, dings, dents on both the front and rear bumpers, they are old war wounds from when my boss still had the car.......poor old bugger is getting on in years and gets confused, thinking he's in a bumper car instead of out on the road!

[Dazzler]

Careful Scott (your "old" boss might come on here for a look..) 

[thebutcher316]

Ahh thats all good Daz, I'm not too concerned.....the man will be 73 this year so he's already well aware he's getting old

I must say though I am in love with the car he has given me.....prior to getting the i30 I was driving a 2007 Hyundai Tucson City and it was terrible on fuel......it would cost about $60 to fill up and I could only get 380-400 kms out of a tank.....and it's a 43km journey each way to the office for me every weekday so the tanks weren't lasting long!

My gorgeous little SLX even has a permanently mounted GPS and reversing camera - so I have all the mod-cons
(although when the bumper is replaced the camera will need to be shifted sightly, as you will notice in the pic it has gone off-filter)





If only I could find an SR amp somewhere on eBay and get the specs for the JBL speakers they put in the SR......then I would never need another car again! Don't get me wrong, the stez in the SLX is great (especially the way I have tuned all the settings), but it does tend to disort at tinnitus creating sound levels

[Dazzler]

Looked like you like the site as well  .. I am enjoying your posts and pix 

We had an SLX CRDi Manual from March 2008 until August 2010 until we upgraded it to a Camry Hybrid.. (both brilliant cars in my opinion.. but very different)

We now have a 2.0 Petrol CW (manual) as our 2nd car.. and my wife loves it with a passion 

[thebutcher316]

Yeah well the great thing is, the more i30's I stalk, the more fun I have, and the more fun I have, the more pics I take, and the more pics I take and post on here, the more free advertising our business gets!

Actually had a "one that got away" type scenario the other day with a fellow i30 - came out of a shopping centre and saw a 2.0 Petrol i30 SX parked on the opposite side of the road, so I quickly turned left and chucked a U-ey, pulled up behind it, got my phone cam ready to grab another pic, and then noticed a lady with boxes crossing the road heading straight toward it......didnt have the balls to get out and take the picture anyway, she was already looking at me a bit sus because I pulled up so closely to her in order to squeeze both cars in the pic.......so I just pretended to be on a phone call for a min or two while she was packing her car and then reversed out and drove away

[Dazzler]

I have had similar things happen.. don't want to look like a stalker

At least our old fella doesn't dent and scratch his bumpers...(Oh hang on....) 

[thebutcher316]

More stalking on our shopping trip today - bought our wedding bands which was the last thing to tick off on our "to do" list before the big day on May 5!



And stalked my first wagon, you know what they say, once you go wagon......



If you look closely you'll see Jess (my fiancee) has managed to get in on the pic too - didnt notice this until I just posted it! (db08 - make sure your specs are on) 

But c'mon guys, you're not giving me any competition! 

[Dazzler]

Thanks Scott (nice CW)

[thebutcher316]

One day I'm hoping someone will reply and say, "hey, that's my car!"

[Ugly Mongrel]

You have been a busy little butcher.
Great shots, well done.

[komaterpillar]

mrs komaterpillar and i parked beside this sexy little number today



and seen this one parked at the servo so did a quick u-ey to grab a snap

[thebutcher316]

Wow that is impressive, you've given me something to aspire to!

There's an elderly couple that live about 5 mins from me who both have matching i30cw's......and only very rarely do they ever have them both out of the garage at the same time......but one day I'd love to pull into their driveway and do the old 'pic and run' with all three - that'd be a laugh and a half.

  and then do these ones    out the window when you drive off

[Ugly Mongrel]

Great shots, komatapillar. Welcome to the i30 stalkers club

If you get a shot of ours together, that's not considered stalking.

Sounds like a good stalker's plan, butcher.

[Surferdude]

My i30 found a CW at Golden Beach but it was an ugly mongrel. 

[thebutcher316]

Another couple of sweet young ladies stalked on the way home from work today:





Could've got a third, a sexy red one too, but I couldn't get the pic because it was parked in a 'No Standing' zone and I was worried the footballers training very close by may mistake me for a parking inspector, pick me up, and make me their new football....

[Ugly Mongrel]

Chatting up a nice little black number at the pub.

 

At the gym on the way home from the pub I met this nice young lady. Gee, they look fit, don't they?

 

[Doggie 1]

UM, your car's a tart 

[Ugly Mongrel]

UM, your car's a tart 

Well, she is called Lubricious. 

BTW, being called a tart is better than being called a stalker.

[Surferdude]

UM, your car's a tart 

Yep. Notice how she's lifting up her skirts at the refined grey gentleman beside her.

[2i30s]

Well, she is called Lubricious.

and tarts usually don't get jail time. 

[Doggie 1]

But they do visit jail 

[2i30s]

But they do visit jail 

conjugal visit. 

[thebutcher316]

I don't know, I think I much prefer stalking

Another couple found today:



Been trying to score this one for a few days now, it's always parked out the front of the same school every weekday but today's the first day it was left on its lonesome
