hello folks...

[rusty82]

hello folks, i'm a newbie so thought would say hello.I'm Rus, live in wilts area, work as an architects technician and race mechanic at castle combe. havent had the clio for long, had a yellow honda s2000 originally but what with working in bristol costing me way too much a month on fuel and recently buying a house, decided it had to go was a sad day. any ways bought a 2003 172 in dark blue. pics below of old car, track car and clio...

i'm 25, 7 years after starting as an apprentice on around 20k plus anything private that comes in through family/friends. can expect to get more than that around larger cities though, thinking of going into contracting at some point though!

Welcome, cool job! I love the s2k! The 172 looks lovely too

Hi Rus - the 172 looks spot on - one of my favourite colours in that model.

Shame you had to sell the S2000. At least if the job turns out well, you can skip the S2000 completely and buy an NSX instead!
