Hey guys,
I was just about to post about my new G40 only to find that it's this one! I collected at the weekend and I'm chuffed! The colour is Maritime Blue (if I'm correct?). It's not quite as nice as Windsor Blue but I guess rarer?! I was waiting for you guys to comment on this car but I was looking in the For Sale section!
I had a G40 a few years back and LOVED it to bits. I had to sell as it's wasn't practical as a daily driver and I wanted a newer car. No regrets but I always thought it was the best car I had owned (ssssssssssssssh don't tell the others!).
I've now got a BMW Z4 (for sale), a Smart car as my daily driver and this G40 as my project car. I was looking for something standard, that I could work on over the next few months and basically keep standard.
This car fitted perfectly! It's completely standard, everything original (even the exhaust!). The paintwork is untouched (I think it has one scratch on the wing and a small dent in the roof) and it needs a serious wash and polish. It's off the road atm as I'm assuming it hasn't had a charger rebuild and I don't really want to drive it until I've had that done (I'm assuming G-Werks is the place to go? - I used to use Piston Heads). Having had a quick inspection it needs a new fuel tank, thermostat and a really good service. Surprisingly not a head gasket!
Anyways, I talk far too much (esp for high jacking someone elses post!) so here's some pics. Please excuse the fact that I clearly haven't washed/polished it. What a horrible day yesterday weather wise!
I do have one question. Does anyone know how many L reg ones were registered in the UK?
So Hi to all and watch this space!! I'm excited!!
Gemma
