Tony, I believe you, I was thinking that you may have covered up the original.

Maybe you should drive one before making such coments. You drive an xf for gods sake so how are you in a position to make such comments?

Every Adventra I've seen has at least one piece of exterior plastic missing.

Nice first Post rick.

Some people in this thread drive GT's GT-P's and typhoons. Not to mention XR6T's XR8's and countless other brillian and beautiful cars. According to your ideology they must deserve to make such comments on an adventra having such nice cars, and they all say the same thing XF or not:

ADVeNtRa Is ShIIIItTTT!!!

So get back in ya VN with ya standard Ricerbarn Fart can and leave the shit giving to us mayyte!

Hmmmm,

Judging by these replies, I don't think I want to come back here. I think I'll go and join a forum where the members are over 12 years of age...

Sorry Rick, but I think you'll find anyone with defending a 'SICK AS' adventura probably has a mental age lower than what you claim we have, so I don't like your chances.

Its a bit of fun mate, lighten up (or is that grow up?).

P.s. Tip for whatever forum you end up at. Paying out on members cars generally won't get you a lot of friendly replies.

lets see who has the mentality of a 12 year old here? you signed up to make one ignorant remark, then come on again to call everyone 12 year olds. do you even own a car? are you even old enough to drive? by the stupidity that you have exhibited here i dont think so, mabey we don't want you here try taking your immature attitude somewhere else and see how far it gets you in life let alone on an internet forum......
