Thanks, I'd probably only ever want to go as a passenger, no way I'd want to drive round it.
I think now it's more of a fashion thing so it seems to attract a lot of idiots who think it's race, that's my perception.
It's also worth remembering that most manufacturers tend to keep stock of parts for around ten years, so after that (and when people have raided scrap yards etc) they'll be harder to come by. That's one of the reasons that getting parts for old 80's / 90's hot hatches is hard (and expensive)
Fair play on doing it & putting all of the time & effort in. I do remember the car from years ago. It's not my thing etc, but if you like it that's all that matters.
I can't see the whole scene going full circle though, I was right there in the Max Power days too, but I'm glad I don't get...
I did go yeah, for about four years or so (but I last saw you a couple of years ago at that RR meet in Lakeside) I came back at the end of July.
A catch up would be good!
Re: My new car. TTQS
New wheel looks great, really nice! lots better than the leather one. I do kind of prefer the car with the badges on the back, it looks a bit naked without them.
Durbin, PM me back.
Long time no see :dapprove:
I didn't even realise that you'd sold it to him. Kudos for buying it back, is it a keeper now then ?
I remember seeing the cup years ago down Lakeside Tesco's back when I had my 16v lol, that was probably shortly after you got it, I'd not even met you back then!
I...
I'd invest in a steering lock too.
Despite having one I don't know that much about them. With a tracker the lifetime cover thing only applies when you own the car, so if you sell it the new buyer will have to pay.
I will see about doing one at the start of next year mate as it's not really the right weather right now. I'll do one when I've given it a proper clean :)
It's on 49,650 Yep 6.5 years!! Only two previous owners too. It's due a cambelt etc, so I'm getting all that done & new brakes all round for winter. Hello £2000 bill :rolleyes:
Cheers, if you could that would be great :) I only live in Essux so it's not far from me at all.
I'm not registed on there anymore, too many places & not enough time :(
Did old man James attend ?
Did you seem my post #437 ? I was referring to Silver FRST's there mate.
Good luck mate! I reckon less than 20 are still alive now!
Also, some normal colours came on late reg plates, there were some red K plate cars around too.
