Hi - Mark_Rogers - 12-04-2015
Just thought I'd take time for a quick hello... Finally decided to scratch a 20 year old itch.
Every time it's started to feel like summer's on the way, I buy a convertible, enjoy it for a few months and sell it on (usually at a loss). I always regret selling... Always!
For a while I had the e30 bug, but they have got so expensive to source now, I thought I'd give the PUG a go. I've just won an auction, for what looks like a nice straight car at a great price. (let me know what you think - Picture attached, I won for £800 on the nose)
I don't live too far away from Pug Racing either, so I can envisage a little money being thrown in their direction.
So... Hi
Mark

The belt for the driver's side electric window has gone, that's it... Looks like it's been cared for as the last owner has put on some expensive bits, including a nice exhaust and down pipe... As far as mods go, it depends on whether I get the 'bug' or not, but the guys at Pug Racing are doing some great deals on an Mi16 engine transplant with Jenveys, I just need to look at the peripheral costs like brakes and suspension. If I can afford it and the car is not off the road for too long, I'll probably go for it.

Oh... And I have to re-vinyl the roof cover, which looks like a total ball ache of a job.

Welcome & a big hello
RE: Hi - Mark_Rogers - 14-04-2015
Having looked into engine conversion, it's way to expensive for my budget, so I'll be staying 'stock' with the exception of a couple of vanity items, like a set of BBS RS 3-piece and a better set of speakers :-)
