Hello - Newbie intro ...

[eight-six]

Hi guys

Quote:I'm ready to swap my red shell for the MR2

lol thats probably the best offer I have had on it so far One guy offered to take the car off me and pay installments of £50 a month! At least a Hachi shell would be half way there :wink:

Quote:Did you own a aw11 or sw20?

Its an SW20 I love the car to bits but its cost me a packet to get to the stage it is; and now my girlfriend talked me into marrying her :wink: so I have a wedding to pay for .

Plus the Hachi is going to be more fun and more suitable for track days especially on my salary.

Quote:and pics from any heavily modded toyota are always welcome
