Hello from Norn Iron.........joined the site on the 9th Feb and thought seeing that it was Valentine's day I'd spread a little love by finally saying hello to everyone.  First of all the car its a N/A Blue 02 car which (unfortunately) had been a write off but the car drives really well.  Especially with such big mileage 112000 and rising I bought it off the brother in law last summer and haven't stopped using it.  It does the work run every day and other than sorting out all the wee half done jobs by previous owners it has served me well.

It starts first time everytime and I just love it.

The car I believe was purchased in the North of England with the original reg starting EA02... I haven't got any paperwork here as I'am in work so don't have build number etc as I would be interested to know more of its history. The repair to the damage "front drivers side area" hasn't been to the best of standards but is okay from 10ft....should I keep it my plan will be to strip, repair and repaint, however my other toys are needing love too... (they include Ducati 999, BMW Z4 Coupe and the 911 convertible)

I thing I am interested in is a Hardtop for the old girl as the soft top has been botched by someone trying to turn it Black from its original Blue colour.  Well there you go for my first wee foray with the club once again hello to all and if there is anyone in N Ireland please give me a shout.

All the Best John
