If you see this around, it's me!

My GTA History= I first played GTA Chinatown Wars. I had it on my DS, and played it frequently. I really enjoyed it, but I never completed any missions, only played for vehicles and shootouts, at that time, I never really enjoyed playing missions.

My next GTA game I played was GTA Liberty City Stories, which I bought when I got my PSP. I was actually quite disappointed, as I actually thought it was going to have better graphics, maybe comparing to GTA IV. I still enjoyed the vehicles, the guns, and best of all, the location, New York (aka: Liberty City), at that age, I was addicted to New York.

My next game was GTA IV, which, I absolutely loved, when in got my Xbox 360 to play it on, I was very impressed, and it was my favorite game, I played it everyday, literally. Again, I never played any missions on GTA IV, I only used vehicles and weapons, the location, again, was beautiful. I then got Vice City Stories on my Tablet, I never really enjoyed it, as it was too plain and empty, however, I loved the missions.

GTA V was my next game, and I was really impressed, when you get a game, at first, you love it, but then you start to, well, de-love it! Thankfully, GTA V next-gen sorted that out, when I got my Xbox One last Christmas, I was really interested in the First Person Mode, which, to say is Rockstar's 'first try', was very, very good, GTA V was very occupying, it usually kept me interested in its amazing details and features. About Me= Ok, so...My real name is Guy Alexander, but please, just stick to calling me "Monk"...

I'm 22 years of age, and was born on the 18th of August in Leeds, England. I work as a mechanic at garage in Leeds. I have worked on plenty of cars, Ferraris, BMWs, Mazdas, Audis, you name it. Feel free to come to me for any mechanical help or for car help, I'm happy to help :).

Me and Cars
I have a passionate love for cars. I first learnt to drive when I was 17, and passed on the first test (first try!) (I studied cars throughout my younger life...). Since then, I have driven many types of cars, from the odd muscle car, to high-end sports cars (and everything in-between).

I now own a bright "krypton" green Lotus Elise ("kitted" up), a small, cheap sports car that runs well on the road. If you ever think I'm wrong about a vehicle performance edit on a vehicle page, just consider the above :). It went under a giant respray, in which I had to manually strip the car down. It was at this point I added the turbo. See here for more information about my car, hand (typed) written by myself :P

As some users may know, my most memorable drives have been a Ferrari 458, BMW I8, Dodge Charger R/T, Jeep Wrangler, Nissan GT-R and Mitsubishi Lancer. Some other unique drives have been the Range Rover Sport, Chevrolet Volt and Toyota Prius (the latter 2 are utter sh*t). Monk's real life car. Me On the Wikia= So I first used the wiki in 2012, after looking for help with GTA IV vehicles and their spawn locations. I noticed how much the wiki changed after GTA V came out, I started noticing the Vehicle Infobox images changing, information changing and I even learnt about GTA V before it came out. When I fell in love with the Police Riot, I saw a few mistakes, so I thought I'd make an account, and fix them. Ever since, I loved the wiki, until 3 anonymous users got on my case, and I've pretty much been hated by them ever since.

I'm now a Bcrat and the happiest guy in the world.


 * Basic vehicles with only one version:
 * "VehicleName-GTAV-front.png"


 * If the vehicle has a named GXT variant (i.e. Rumpo Custom) that contradicts the handling name (in this case, "Rumpo3", stick to available GXT Name:
 * "VehicleNameGTX-GTAV-front.png"


 * If a vehicle has named livery counterparts (not GXT), which aren't classified as new models in handling.dat (i.e. Weazel News Rumpo) name the livery:
 * "LiveryNameVehicleName-GTAV-front.png"


 * If the vehicle has a variant which isn't named, yet is considered a separate model in handling.dat (i.e. Deludamol Rumpo = Rumpo2), name the handling name:
 * "VehicleName2-GTAV-front.png"


 * In rarer cases, if a vehicle variant which is numbered differently has multiple different liveries/versions (i.e. flatbed and boxed variants of Utility Truck = UtilityTruck2), include both different version name and the number:
 * "VehicleName2Difference-GTAV-front.png"

GTA IV

 * NPCs in cars can be occasionally seen throwing cans of pop out of the window, particularly when in traffic.
 * Unlike GTA V, ramming cars, usually from the rear, will occasionally cause the driver to fall out of the car, and the vehicle may sometimes burst into flames.
 * Stealing a car doesn't give the player a wanted level; the alarm itself gives the player a wanted level. This can be noted if the player uses a trainer to manually turn on a car alarm on any vehicle, as it will give the player a background wanted level.

GTA V

 * The Dune only ever spawns in red.
 * The Contender only ever spawns in matte black, like armored cars.
 * The propshaft on the Dune doesn't actually connect to the diffs.
 * There's nothing inside the back of the Brickade.
 * The intercooler model in the game is shared with the radiator model. In fact, it's usually just a stretched model. Additional model parts, like bigger pipes, are added on to simulate an intercooler rather than a radiator.
 * The Tropos Rallye's headlights are indestructible. While the light itself is destroyed, the casing and functioning pop-up nimation will retain no matter how much damage is done.
 * The Drift Tampa's front "bumper" is actually connected via the center of the car. When damaged, it will pivot from the center of the width of the car, rather than the edge like any other car.
 * The cinematic camera alternates between camera modes quicker when the player is wanted.
 * The GTA Online phone is bulletproof. If the player goes into self portrait mode on the phone, other players will not be able to shoot the player's head if they hit the phone.

Vehicles

 * However, Andre would like to challenge him on a race. (Added by: Andre)
 * Monk is a very experienced driver however, not to be rude, but Monk would win :P
 * Guy also agrees that he is the best driver here. (Added by: Guy)
 * Monk knows he talks way to much about himself, and about his vehicles, but who gives a shit anyway?
 * Konan disagrees, and finds him to be not very egotistical at all, but appreciates his humility. (Added by: Konan T-A Lim)
 * Myth hunter said that Monk can become a teacher if there was a subject called "engine class". (Added by: Myth)
 * One good reason for this is because Monk scored 100/100 for his "All about Vehicles" Gold-Module Examination. (Added by: Marcus)
 * Monk is described to be a car encyclopedia by Myth hunter.

Miscellaneous

 * Monk has a wife, surprisingly.
 * Monk misspelled "Flores" (Cam's surname) as "Flares" in a Staff Map, but he actually laughed at it. (Added by: Camilo)

 * Because of this, Monk and VaultBoy are the only properly bred users on this wiki. They are the best as they are from God's Own County. (Added by: Tom)
 * Monk is an excellent drawer. (Added by J)
 * Monk is currently the oldest staff member on the GTA Wiki.
