Smiler AS Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Well after selling up the wagon last year due to new job Ive bought a cheap classic as a toy / runabout. 1998 S reg only 51K, 2 owners since new with last guy having owned it since 2001. New brake pads, discs, pipes and calipers. Recent 4 Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres. Leather interior - although im still unsure on it, might do a swap if anyone wants to. Alloys (Prodrive) could do with a refurb though. Goes very smooth for a 14 year old. Surprisingly little lag.
lewisscoob Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Goes very smooth for a 14 year old. Welcome back! Dont be offended but I near choked on my coffee reading the above! I guess that's more of a poor reflection on me than you though...
Smiler AS Posted September 12, 2012 Author Posted September 12, 2012 Ah, yeh. Looking back now, that looks a little dodgy!
scooby222 Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 welcome back to the fold mate! bearing in mind you had the sweetest wagon ive seen im looking forward to seeing what you do with this one
euan_r Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 welcome back, bit quieter up here nowadays.
davey l wrx Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 Welcome back.... the more the merrier. Hopefully we'll get some events sorted for the future and get some more meets going again!
monsterenergy Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 They always come back! Fit like, min
Smiler AS Posted September 13, 2012 Author Posted September 13, 2012 Does anyone want to swap a leather interior (very good nick) for black and grey UK turbo interior? Also, anyone want to swap Prodrives as above, 17's with all round very good recent Goofyear Eagle F1's? The Prodrives are straight but corroded and need a refurb. And Im not keen on 17's on a classic. Im looking for std. 16's (5 spoke & silver), not fussed about tyres or if anyone has any for sale?
neill54 Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 What sort of swap you after for the wheels? I have six spoke speedlines in black could easily be Painted silver tyres ain't the best at the mo! Neil
euan_r Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Sticking some photies of interior up will help min.
Smiler AS Posted September 16, 2012 Author Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) Will do. First weekend, got one side polished and waxed, still to do front, back and passenger side. Also picked up a few second hand bits this weekend too. Quite fancy updating front bumper to facelift too. Edited September 16, 2012 by Smiler AS
