Just said goodbye to my ph1...

[yeecup]

It's gone. Sold to mark aka Dr Jekyll who flew up from London this morning and is currently driving the long road home. Proper nice bloke and a fellow enthusiast who I know will continue to look after it as I did.

 

[imprezaworks]

So subaru next?

 

[yeecup]

Doesn't look like it

 

[Daz.]

Did look nice!

 

[Mr R.]

Mark's great , I know him.

He text me from the airport 1st thing this morning like a big kid.
I can feel a photo shoot coming on when mines back on the road.
How comes no scoob mate, thought thats why you was selling the ph1?

He will look after it, you have no worries there.

 

[imprezaworks]

What's the plan then?

 

[banther]

yes!!!!!

Myself and dr Jekyll are the new blood.

 

[Mr R.]

Mark's just text, his loving ph1 ownership.

 

[Kyle 86]

Its gone to a great home

 

[yeecup]

Looks like e46 330ci next for me

 

[Harpham]

Finally marks got hold of one!! Hope you enjoy it buddy. Welcome to the elite.

 

[imprezaworks]

Good choice in replacement

 

[yeecup]

Hope so. Going to view what looks an immaculate one tomorrow so fingers crossed

 

[imprezaworks]

You got a link?

How comes mate, why no scoob?

 

[welshname]

Glad Mark has finally got a ph1 and this one is a lovely example.

As for 330ci Jon G has one and it's lovely. Comfy, well spec'd and they don't even look old. His unfortunately is missing a pedal but it's a great car none the less.

Finally marks got hold of one!! Hope you enjoy it buddy. Welcome to the elite.

It'll only be the elite when you've finally left it.

 

[yeecup]

How comes mate, why no scoob?

Fancy a change, had 3 scoobs and nothing for sale ATM that I would buy in budget, 330ci are cracking value just now if u can find a really nice one

 

[Jekyll]

Oh hai

I think you'll regret that.

 

[imprezaworks]

Tbf that looks mint

 

[Charlie-silver172]

I think you'll regret that.

Definatley, 330's are disappointing IMO clio would be quicker

Well iv got one now and I love it!

I think the coupes are disappointing. They are too big and heavy. I had a 330i touring for nearly a year and loved it. One of the best cars i've owned, but the coupe doesn't really drive any different to the touring. Which is a bit daft imo.

 

[corsapower]

Good call on that Daniel.

Different cars though, depends what your looking for. Quick enough IMO

Coupes are disappointing. Too big and heavy. Riiiiight. But you loved the heavier, bigger and slower touring. In fact it was one of the best cars you've owned. But you didn't like the lighter, faster coupe. Perhaps the coupe you drove was a shed, or perhaps you have mental problems. Bad call on that Daniel.

 

[yeecup]

Lmfao!!!!

 

[imprezaworks]

?

 

[corsapower]

Corsapower dropping some truth bombs. I must be heard. I will be heard.

 

[corsapower]

Anyway. I used to own a megane scenic 2.0. I loved that car, best car I've ever owned. One day I drove a 172, same engine. It was just as good, awesome actually. So disappointing.

 

[Chi]

James had his 2.5 coupe mapped at RS.. Could be a plan.

 

[corsapower]

Exactly.

I'm sorry, did my opinion upset you? Dry your eyes.

The touring, a big bulky family car and a coupe, supposedly the 'sportier' version of the marque, drove the same. In my opinion. If anything, my touring was stiffer. And as for it being a shed, i've had about 10 of them so unless i've just been very unlucky, i'd say it was a fair opinion.

 

[corsapower]

You're furious. Absolutely furious.

 

[imprezaworks]

Stop trolling mate, your coming accross as a tit

 

[Daz.]

You're furious. Absolutely furious.

Are you still here?

 

[R-Sport.]

Nice car.

I remember going to buy that! Right in the centre of London!

Its finally come home.

 

[soupie69uk]

I think I used to pass this car heading from Leith to Meadowbank. Always admired it and it was always very clean.

Did you have a build thread, looks like a few subtle mods. It has made think about selling my Lupo TDI for one to buzz about town in.

 

[Jekyll]

Can't believe I've owned this for a year!
