shit I thought you were locked up :lol: where you been hiding not seen you about for a while, just to say your old TD cav what our Marc bought has gone to a good home but to be honest was in need of a fair bit of work, still going strong thanks to someone with knowledge but its in safe hands I'm sure you know Dave from Thorne(if I remember his user name I'll tell you) who has nova convertable and rs escorts

Yep i knows Dave very well, he used to have a white GSi rep TD a while back, built it as he fell in love with mine and wanted one himself, ironically when he sold it to another lad on png, i picked it up and ran it round for a month till he came to get it from me :lol:


And as for locked up, what gave you that impression you cheeky sod haha, im a good boy me and aint never been in trouble with the feds :dance:

Im probably going to be more convinced in what i want to do as im off to go see Claire and Steve at the weekend and ive been promised a go in Claires turbo, im not sure as i should as i love my nova, but cant stop snooping online to see if there are any turbo's up for sale, i think i should do it as ive wanted one for years now and still never done it!!

I really don't see the issue in breaking an SRi, or a GSI... or a Turbo for that matter. If it did you for a few months and you took decent cash back by breaking it and in doing so, removed a potential death trap from the roads then really, why should anybody have an issue with that! Wish I'd known though, I'd have had a few bits and pieces from you.

When i took those photos of the cav, it still had about ten months MOT left on it, truly dangerous imo, i knew it wasnt as clean as it looked but it was an XE SRi for £450, so i bought it :D


I didnt keep much of the car itself as i parted the rolling shell with a guy called Colin Smith from Lincoln for some suspension and a few other bits for the nova build!


Still got the skirts for any future pov spec cav i might come across, and the xe airbox with an almost new k&n panel filter, think its only got 200 miles use lol!

colin smith is a great guy but try getting a deal from him is hard work and finding his place at night is a mightmare, but as for the cav sri , hey look where it was tested we all know ( arsehole springs to mind ) only trust lee in there

Yeah i was warned beforehand that if it said a certain name on the sheet then it will have been tested by stevie wonder!!


Isnt he somehow connected to you, im sure Andreas said he was Marcs uncle or something?

Thankfully with regard to Colin, ive never tried to find his spot at night, although he has moved now, or at least should be on the verge of moving, ive never had a problem with his prices really, agree to pay what he wants or just dont bother going :lol:
