New member - hello
« on: July 22, 2010, 12:55:57 pm »
Thought I'd introduce myself: David, from North Essex, near Colchester.

Been a reader/lurker on here for some time now, finally bit the bullet and joined the forum today...

I had a tornado red G40 , J reg in 2001-3, but had to let it go.  Fettled a little, Jabbasport induction kit, new chip & pulley, and loved it.  Remember the run up the A12 to a GTI show north of Ipswich where I joined up with a couple of dutch cars including a mk1 Polo with a G40 lump....fun.

Regretted selling the car ever since, but it funded a house renovation, which funded a split screen van, which eventually went to pay for an extension to my current house. 

Anyway, now looking for another G40 to make the daily commute a bit more fun, either lowish mielage or very good history, or both!.  Very tempted by G-Spot's ad, but didn't want my first post to be in relation to that.

Look forward to being a bit more involved, and learning more about these great cars from you lot.

Cheers

Welcome. Jasons is a very good buy for the money, in fact he is giving it away with all the goodies you get.

Any pictures of the split?

Thanks for the welcome.
Here's a couple of photos of the van:
 

And something else I sold to pay for house and family ::)


Haven't been to any East Coast Dubs meets as haven't had anything suitable to arrive in for a while...I do keep an eye on their forum though, and will come along when I get myself a G40
