My brother and I are long-running pikey mechanics. This was probably the last pic of my last mk2.....adjusting his Honda manifold to fit a totally different Honda. Still on that car today, still works. Retards Club seems to have compressed the image, but the mani is being bent from the awesome 1300 XF power (auto...) and a lamppost...had to resort to work's van after this but funny nonetheless. Could have all gone wrong, the back lane was tiny and snapped tow ropes would have been a disaster, the lamppost could have fallen (haha yeh right), broke something. Moral of the story - if you're struggling with your OSF repairs, remember WWAPD: what would a pikey do.

Thanks peoples. Obsessed with watching YT vids and scouring eBay, South Africa Gumtree but so far either the ones I like are mortgage territory or have a "bit" of metal left.

Hi all, Used to be on here a long long time ago, cannot for the life of me remember what my login was or my email that I used to set it up, so started a new one, and I'm a very different person since then so seems fitting to start fresh (I wasn't an asshole, just want a fresh start). I've had two 4-doors, one an orange (carnival red..not signal orange anyway) that was rebuilt from scratch from the previous owner and sold to me with the paint still fresh for £850...twas a beaut and my biggest regret selling it. And it did this, despite not being that powerful and fairly grippy tyres: Next was a white 4-door auto £501 (eBay special) I bought it for and fitted monster brakes, bought a peppy Xflow for it and then moved abroad so I sold that for a profit. This was before people took 1000 photos a day of everything, in fact this one wasn't even my photo it was the one from the eBay ad I bought it from. Anyway, fast forward 9 more years later and I NEEEEED another one. I know exactly what I want it to look like, what will power it (or a choice of two motors anyway a 180-200bhp HPE powered thing or a sacrilegious engine that I won't mention, let's just pretend it'll be an HPE and the main reason is this video -->https://www.Retards Club.com/retrostance/videos/1163879540301412/),must be a 4-door or it would just feel weird since that's all I've had, and it won't be original stuff, I've done that and it gets tiresome. I want it to be a sleeper/fast road spec. I'm moving to Northumberland soon (so a purchase won't be until next year unless I can find a bargain and I don't think there are many bargains left these days), and that's where a lot of night rallying is done so I have some really really good roads just a few minutes from where I'll be living, so it would be rude not to buy another. Anyway, that's my story. Looking forward to getting back into the fold and reading about what's good, what's not, what's despicably expensive these days (probably everything I bet).
