PMSL so much
EDIT: I have been asked a few times at servos 'is that the turbo model?'
Some say he loves gaming and that he also loves house work..... All we know is, he's called The ScottyB!

Geoff... you should go in and ask a bit a bout it....
So what sorta turbs has it got?
They may has well have just put a sticker saying 'economical' on it... about as true as 'turbo'.

PMSL, too!
Maybe "TURBO" looks better on a windscreen sign than:
"SUPERO"
?
