    Finally back in a '5

    Evening all.

    I have recently acquired a 2001 1.8 S-VT and thought I'd come along to the forum and say hi :D





    Had done 49k miles when I bought it (+ an extra 1000 in the 3 and a bit weeks I've had it) and appears to be a rust free and well looked after example Big Smile

    I say I'm back in a '5 because this is my second one, I wrote my first one (1999 1.8S) off last year (involving a curb and an Alfa GTV Cry ).
     

    Though I have heard that it is back on the road so I didn't kill the old girl off Big Smile

    Some of you have already met me after I stumbled upon a gathering last Saturday

    Thanks everyone Thumbs up

    Ta Jo, I've still got your card in my wallet, either this payday (or next depending on how the car insurance search goes!) I'll join as a paid up member Big Smile. Already taken a peek at the SWM area (and realised the Area Co-ordinator knows my mum so I will have to behave around here Wink )
