just another one of them random observations from my travels, look you see. been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow, indeed. as some (some) of you seem to quite like these most casual of spottings, i figured why not break up the sequence of london adventure related posts with a bit of a gander.
those of you who (infrequently but still) frequently read all of this, well, whatever it is i post here shall be quite aware that recently i was required, or had a requirement, to do business with an exhaust mender. let there be no element of doubt that i was most pleased with the results of this mending. but it now feels akin to being quite a missed opportunity.
surely, you think, an exhaust is what it is, and that if it is attached and functioning as it should then there can be no element of doubt or decision about it? on an entirely, or strictly, practical level, then yes, that is so. until, at the least, i stumbled on the hidden world of aesthetic exhausts.
indeed i do have every confidence that you can see very clearly what i am talking about in the above. very clearly indeed, thanks to the eternal magic of Commodore 64 mode images. but, if you want (for some reason) a different, sort of more regular image of that which i speak, such is below.
no, prior to this i had not really every considered the shape of an exhaust. i have always accepted that they are either round, or oval in some instances shape, with the understanding that them what make it long ago worked out that this was the optimal design for them.
but, knowing now what i did not know then, surely, yes, i would most certainly be interested in a different, non-conventional shaped exhaust. not that i am expecting my most recently bought one to require a replacement any time soon.
and there it is. quite a spiffing, lovely, aesthetically pleasing heart shaped one. no, alas, i did not see the car it was attached to in action, so i am unaware if it kicks out petrol (or diesel) fumes in a lovely heart shape. i would , however, like to think that yes, it very much does. well, if pollution is happening anyway, why not make such as stylish as one can?
the heart shaped exhaust is probably not something many car makers offer as a standard. i know for a fact that it is not an item car, or specifically exhaust, menders have to hand in any great number, as i was not offered one when i recently had need for such. normally this would mean such an item comes at a premium, which is to say would cost more than is standard. me ever getting one would probably depend, a great deal, on exactly how much more than standard.
hang on, i have just done a google thing and it turns out they are quite cheap. let me get one ordered, then, along with some welding gear, and work out how to do this.
be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
