FAO Yozza and SteveV6 (RE YOJ)

[TomS]

Hi fellas

Strange coincidence this morning filling up at my Shell garage on way to Uni....

Bloke filling up next to me in a Arctic 182... I go to sit back in car after paying... and he say's hi... after having a quick chat he tells me he was the owner of YOJ before you Yozza! he mentioned he sold it to you...

Said he saw a valver from a distance and was shocked at it being N59 YOJ!

I was totally shocked at the coincidence... he really liked seeing the car again and I got his email addy so I could send some pics to him.

Very nice bloke, he sends his regards to you

^^ Lol I love it when i see my old cars.... is weird really when you think about it logically. haha

 

[y0z2a]

That's cool

I've only ever seen one of my old cars. Someone on here spotted my old 172 though.

It's nice having a car which is owned by enthusiasts. I was once filling the 182 up in a petrol station in Reading when a red 172 pulled up next to me, as he was filling up we got chatting about them. I also had a lad once come over and start telling me how "f**king mint" my old 172 was as I was putting petrol in it.

 

[y0z2a]

that valver was a minter, drove perfectly, was possibly the tidyest one i have ever seen.

Nice one Tom. It's great when things like that happen.

I sold all my past Pugs to members of the car club so I still get to keep tabs on them!

 

[TomS]

Cheers guys... Yeah strange surname Andy but along those lines!

Was brilliant to meet him..... I think he was glad to see it standard :approve:

 

[Ali]

Nice story, I'm sure he's happy to see it still A1 condition.

 

[TomS]

Yeah think he was pleased to have seen it looking good, although it was pretty dirty lol

 

[Nafoff]

wow..good story tom..where was this to..its funny how its been all round the country and one of the first owners was someone relativly local...

 

[TomS]

Brilliant coincidence

 

[Nafoff]

[steveV6]

[Rich]

Every one wants the YOJ, Tom remember your promise!

 

[TomS]

SWAP for a V6 255?

Rich - what did I promise?

 

[Rich]

The YOJ to me for a fiver and a packet of crisps as you know I would keep it clean.

But if your getting a V6 now for it I dont blame you!

 

[TomS]

Looking forward to meeting up Rich... think freebone wants your services too!

Am I correct in thinking Rich (r-jay) is the legendary PC man? Could throw a bit of business you way when the sun comes out again...

 

[TomS]

NO Rich does not do PCing!

i asked first

Oii stop spamming my thread!

:slap:

 

[Rich]

LOL! No probs acrebo. I have a few other cars to do as soon as the weather improves, so one more wont be a problem.

 

[Ads_172]

lol cheers buddy

Which Shell station was it TomS? Do you go to Uni nearby or commute to somewhere distant?

It is always cool when you see an old car of your's being cared for, I've only got one that I still see regularly and it's owned by a 17 year who I know is going to start fitting neons and chromes soon...

 

[TomS]

lol you should report him if he fits neons!

I normally fill up on the way to Uni (Gloucester) and use the Stroud Shell garage just before the motorway (M5).

Tom

 

[rob172cup]

can i ask why everyone wants your car?

 

[Nafoff]

^^^because it is the mintest of mint totally standard mark 1's that why rob

oh yes r-jay as tom said..we will have to make it a threesome

 

[steveV6]

Can I just state: Agreement of sale is that i get first refusal on purchasing the car back if / when Tom decides to sell it! So no one will ever be getting there hands on this beauty without it being run past me first:approve:

 

[Leeshez]

I see my old corsa every week, i do work with the guy who bought it lol. I used to see my old nova being ragged around by a muppet.

No worries Steve, had a few people ask about it, but you'll obviously get the 1st refusal..... not that I'm selling her anytime soon!
