  1. Welcome along.

    McTwistUK is your closest regional organisor (Glasgow) so keep a look out for his posts regarding meets, there is an event at the Riverside Museum on the 20th I believe. Have a look in events.

    Mind the pics.

  2. I remember 10-11 years ago i had my super tuned mondeo with custom twin exits and the like, no one could touch it, even my bosses tuned mr2 g limited, it was something special. Then came mint a mint escort that my dad and i fixed up when a diddy hit my mondeo, at a red light going 60. That again although not as fast and responsive as my mondeo kicked ass. Traded that for a 3 series, which was the business, fast, clean and fast lol.

    Although not really interested in the cruise scene up here as is still populated by 1 litre wanabees with Halfords sport badges, my cars have always been more than capable in the early years to merit the many club invites i received.

    Gone, perhaps, are the days of fast and the furious stereotypes that people want to add crap and imitate rather than add power and prove. Although its all about the drivers/ cars / personas instead of a tack on neon.

    Subaru and dare i day it mitsubishi/ other performance brands/ models are league's ahead of the generic 1.2/ 1.6 SRI or laterly the ST/ VXR that push the boundaries of standard productions to try and achieve close to basic spec for us, makes our clubs that little bit special.

    In conclusion now car clubs are perhaps more focused to love, power and perfection as opposed to love and double sided tape, the pre 1990s cars however are something else.

  3. As I said the funds may not be cleared for them to allow refunds, immediately. I would always escalate to a claim after any issue not to my satisfaction after the initial resolution proposal.

  4. PayPal may hold your money till they receive it from your bank for the initial payment then refund. You are obliged to pay postage to return the item as its separate from any sales price. Maybe you can come to an agreement. What did you buy?

  5. It's not slating Gordon, I just felt that this being a Subaru site, your comment was only to ensight reaction and you got one.

    I thought we would all prefer to remember the great times like Chris has done with the video. I personally would prefer that than than to dwell on the enormous loss for the other families.

    i certainly would too, i have a massive respect for colins achievements, proud to be a fellow scot and recognise his importance. It doesn't change how i feel tho. And my comment was after no reaction other than for people to perhaps spare a thought or pray for all involved

  6. Gordon are you on drugs??? No one has lost sight of that. We are all adults with families and totally get the big picture here.

    I would suggest that this being a Subaru site and not pretending to anything else your post is largely redundant!

    if you say so Kevan, but i had to post what i feel about the situation. Your right the bigger picture is important, that's why i felt compelled to post before being slated by Lewis. I have the right to post how i feel as have you.

  7. Do you spend time thinking about this pish or just naturally spout it?

    Of course we recognise the family lost a father, husband, son and brother all rolled into one.

    I never had the fortune to know Colin personally but it's my opinion that he would want is to celebrate his balls out attitude to life and Motorsport rather than mourn his passing.

    Of course that's just my opinion.

    naturally spout it clearly just like yourself, and that's just my opinion. My point was what about the other 3 people who were killed on that day, they should also be remembered, as the loss of two children is greater than any icon, surely?
