Mook Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm in. I might still have the Mk2 then, if I've not sold it. Almost tempted to not sell it at all now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Be good to see the old Golf again! I err, don't have a cheque book any more, this is 2014 you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theduisbergkid Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I err, don't have a cheque book any more, this is 2014 you know! Find one. This is a pain in the arse to not-organise. Cheque only. Oh, and get your blimmin' car fixed, no last minute MX-5 MK2 cheating this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Maybe the company will treat me with it's cheque book! ;-) You'll be pleased to know that I have all the parts to fix the Scoob sitting in the outhouse, waiting to be fitted, after that, it just needs 4 tyres, a battery, a service and an MOT. I've got until August to sort that out, so i'll probably do it in a panic at the end of July! I suspect my usual co-driver won't make it given the dates though.

Mook Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm guessing she'll be handy when the Golf needs a push? Two quotes about cars from her - "they've got to be fast" and "they've got to sound right". That's enough for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patently Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 She's a keeper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Two quotes about cars from her - "they've got to be fast" and "they've got to sound right". That's enough for me Well the Golf definitely fulfills one of those categories, turbo 4 bangers never sound particularly great though, although relatively speaking, it didn't sound bad last time I heard it!

CarMad Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I was proud when my better half said she had put the window down to hear a Ferrari nail it up a slip road, followed by what the hell was she doing, but hey she did it without really thinking. She doesn't mind my car expenditure it seems another of many reasons why I love her so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the "ooh that sounds nice" comments when an RS4 burbles past that do it for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Heard an M135i nail it from the M6 Toll booths this morning. It's a bit of a screamer! I'm in, I think. No idea what I'll be driving though. Jim - as my co-pilot you can help me find something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-bmw Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm in, e36 328 (yes, I know it is boring & predicatable Mook, but, I am big enough & ugly enough to take that one on the chin!) 1998 with a few suitable mods to make it better on track, but still with A/C & CD....... I SAID A/C & CD! Not AC/DC! The cheque is in the post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within a couple of hours of going live we've already sold 1/3 of the slots. If people are thinking of entering please do it now It's a cheque for £80 and an email, that's all.

garcon magnifique Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Will write & send the cheque tomorrow and sign up proper, like! This is entirely on the basis that I will either be able to afford to blow a bit of wedge on something suitably 'characterful', or the banger I turn up in will be my daily driver...!

eldavo69 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'll send a cheque and email tomorrow. I'll be in the 944 hopefully without a tree sticking out of the front or a Nissan hanging out of the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Cheque's in the post (ok, it will be in the morning), and email is in motorpunk's inbox. No going back now then. So ... the quest begins ... something comfortable and characterful from the 80s. The motoring equivalent of Alison Moyet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
