LOL @ Midlife the pimp what grade are you getting - 35%?

All that money you are spending @ Palmers, they should give you a MY03 STi to bring along for teh day after all, it's free advertising for them

Not sure if I can make the Sportsman this Wed...will try as I have volunteered to help out on the NBO gate

Lordy,

I've got an MR2 in the garage which I was saving for summertime use, Now I've got the Scoob I'll sell it sometime...trouble is he wouldn't be able to get his mates in!!

Rusty....selling the Sport?? after all that work on the exhaust Not sure if I'm going for the tints, depends on how much they are ? If I do then its the darkest legal possible

Steve (Sherwen)..just a quickie question if your'e logged on, when you had the de-cat did it get a lot noisier under the bonnet as well as louder through the exhaust.

See you Wednesday

Steve..Thanks I was getting a bit paranoid that something was leaking !!

Rusty

Its' this..

1987 MR2 AW11. 75,795 miles. Super Red II.

Owned for 13 years since 1989 (one previous owner) and well looked after. Decided to use the MR2 as a summer car after buying the Impreza and in the last year it has had new alloys and tyres, clutch master cylinder, alternator, fanbelt, cambelt, camshaft pulley, bodywork, radiator, etc etc etc ready to put the car away for summer use only. Over £3k spent recently. MOT May 2003 (I'll put it through MOT).

Jon

Why are you on here and not watching Sigourney on Alien Insurrection??

No pics as it is in the garage at home...Price depends on who buys...this car has seen me through lots of things and I wanted to keep it forever. If it's a mate who will try and look after it then it will be cheaper !

I get it now.

The Westie is a car, not a West Highland White

I was starting to get a bit worried about colleagues over the other side of the country.

13 Days to go!!!!!!!!!

Steve (Sherwen)

Just a short note of thanks re advising me (in the dim and distant past) to get a full de-cat.....I have just read this thread and apparantly the pre-cat can melt in the up-pipe and cause serious damage. Thanks for saving me £2k Plus

Gussy

Means my wife has an extra £2k to spend shopping !!

Lordy

Well done mate...seriously sorted raffle prize from Stan Palmer(dribble, dribble)..I looked into geting one but at £*cough* it's a bit hard to pass off to the wife as a fashion accessory.

Seriously though, I thought about auctioning it as per "e-bay" to be presented at NBO but this disadvantages peeps without internet access etc..

any thoughts

Midlife.....

Wet through after the walk to Stan Palmers to pick up the courtesy car ... in the rain
