    New '5 owner (Touch Wood!) 2000 1.6 mk2

     

    After just missing out on a Mk1 Glenegales at my local dealer i've set my sights on a 1.6 mk2 with 70k on the clock

    should be closing the deal tomorow pending mot test results, needs a bit of work but thats half the fun of it in my eyes. Party


    This will be my first time driving a '5 but not the first one I've owned, as prior to passing my test I restored a Mk1 which sparked my passion for DIY mechanics


    Other previous cars I've had the pleasure and headache of owning;

    Citroen AX GT (Saxo VTS Engine conversion)

    Peugoet 106 rallye

    Ford Escort MK6

    Peugoet 205 x 2


    Think thats about it to be honest, I'm looking forward to learning more and attenting a few meets


    Greg.

     

    [EDIT] Almost forgot, I'm located in the heathrow area
