Hi People
« on: 30 December 2008, 15:14 »
Hi, just thought I'd introduce meself. I'm Andy, mid 30's and live in Derbyshire.

Just bought an 8v mk3 in Mystic Blue (the missus calls it Purple).

I bought this as a running project as I have now given up biking after 20 yrs due to a broken neck thanks to a farmer not keeping his sheep in his fields.

I will post some pics when it's warm enough to go outside and take some.

Anyway, I don't want to bore you anymore so........hello :smiley:

Thanks bud.



Found this pic of the car taken a few weeks back. Not really the best pic, but it's a pic all the same
It's got black 17's on in with a polished lip now.

Cheers mate

I have had to give up riding alltogether with the injuries........plus you know what state all the roads are like round the peak district. That's why the golf hasn't been lowered.

Hi Mate,
I'll keep me eyes peeled when I'm out and about.

Sheep got me on one of the 'B' roads that joins onto the A623 between Bradwell and Tideswell, jumped out through a hole in the wall and I continued to go neck first through a dry stone wall :angry:

On the plus side, it got me 5 months off work and I am a lot better than the sheep :wink:

Completely totalled the Fireblade as well :cry:
