Default New Memeber from a very small country!

Hi People, I just registered on this forum from Malta, a small island in the Mediterrenean Sea. I have just ordered a brand new S2k, delivery for the first week of January, cant wait to be honest.

A bit about me, I am 27yrs old, male, and have owned loads of cars and bikes. I used to drag race, but not anymore. The S2k is gonna be mildly tuned but nothing Over the top.

Regards,

Vince

Welcome!

Are you familiar with Pharaoh Hounds? I have 3 and would be very interested in seeing pictures of some in your country to compare.


Thanks,
mike

Thanks for your posts, Roads here are not very good, but there are a few bends, which are fairly, but the roads do have a few potholes, especially the secondary roads.

I am not into hounds I am afraid, but will try and source some pics!!!!

Welcome to the site. Remember to control that urge to until you log those first 600 miles.
A delivery in January... be careful, driving on snow & ice can be tricky with the S. Wait a minute, you don't have any of that; just potholes.
We got both

Yep, we do have advantages, like not too much rain, and no snow or icy roads. It is nice for a convertible but in summer it is too hot for the roof to be down, it goes beyong 40 degrees celcius here.

The car I got is a brand new AP1 in Moonrock grey with red/black interior. CR's are not available in Malta, although for some reason mine has the CR alloys, along with VSA. It has the F20 engine, so from what I have undestood more revs. Will post pics as soon as I get it. I ordered the factory spoilers as well, the front one, the small arch ones and the small bootlid one.
