Another north of the border Newbie

Hi All,

I've been browsing the site last few days and thought to myself, time to join.

I had a Mk1 as a demo when they first arrived here :o Yup, I'm old :shh: And I've just decided to have another. The hunt starts here. I guess you'll be hearing a lot of pleas for advice, so, please be patient with me :lol:

Glad to be aboard and thanks for having me

Jack

cool :+:

BTW - take a copy of the mk1 buyers guide with you if you need from the main website. its gives you all the bits to look out for

Yep glad to have you on board Jack, welcome to the mk1 world, get looking at some of the events & enjoy your mk1 thats the key :+: , Jinxy

Thanks for the welcome Jinxy.

Well, I 've gone and done it ;) Now the proud owner of a totally shagged out MR2 Mk1 in Blue Mica :clap:
It's gonna take a lot and I mean a lot, of work but the project aspect was 40% of the appeal. It came with a pair of wings and a bonnet from BOK Motorsport?? Secondhand but in really good nick and a very clean set of spare alloys :D
All in all a good weekend's work :D Let the work commence, I'd better dig out the camera.

Fantastic news Jack :clap: :+: a restoration is always hard work, but you will reap the benefits when you get to drive her, theres nothing quite like a Mk1 in full flight believe me :+: :+: If you need any advice your in the right place, keep us updated on the progress & dont forget we want to see some pics too :+: , Jinxy
