Default Another goodbye

I sold my S a few months ago - as I was moving down south to a larger house :-(


I have a car-allowance from work so may buy a new car in the next few months.... thinking of a Vx220 Turbo.


Anyway, I would just like to say thank you to all those delightful people Ish and I met on the S2000 megameet and the Jocks run.


Take care all


Dave

I heard that, but in a strange way, I like that! I miss my integra for its rawness. I loved the S2000 too (and I mean really loved it). I wouldn't mind an exige either - but not sure about the cost.

A Vx220 is great value for money used.

My bro-in-law has an Elise S2 and that rattles and squeeks like hell - but I love it.

Because Elise-based cars are hand-built - you get good 'uns and bad 'uns.

Mine never rattled or squeaked. At all.

And with new and modified door pins (bought from a member on vx220.org) the doors clunked shut rather than crashed shut - as they do stock.

Drive a few and you'll see what I mean. Quality varies dramatically, car to car...

Any questions PM me - I've got a pretty comprehensive list of things to look for when buying, branded into my brain...
