    Thumbs up Bradc spotted me via my licence plate and came into my office

    He was very busy, so could not talk long, but he showed me his picture of his Green Legnum.
    We work to live, and to live is to drive a VR-4, around corners at speed. But it costs see here

    Probably not.

    It requires extensive (read: expensive) repair work to get it legal again and every time I saw him, I'd hit him up about it and the answer was always along the lines of "It's still the same".

    Nope - it's still at his mum's place. I haven't heard it being started in well over two years - he estimated that it would cost about $20,000 to get fixed up because he wanted genuine BMW parts.

    It's a similar story to his other cars - the red Super sits in the garage because he can't get it out unless he adjusts the coilovers, and the purple VR-4 barely gets moved as it is. The green one is barely used either - so I have no idea why he has four cars that he never uses.

    Then again, he may now be using the cars since I stopped working with him. Haven't spoken to him since the day I quit...

    Nope... he got given the keys to a brand new Honda Insight, then a few months later convinced the boss to get him a brand new Holden Cruze 1.4 turbo.

    No, not really. People who should have gotten the company cars (and really deserved to) didn't.

    Yes things went quite wrong, and Brad was the main reason I quit.

    I've got a much better job now.
