Cars looking good! Be careful with the shots though... they're bordering on overprocessed. I can't help thinking they'd look nicer being simpler, sometimes less is more :)

Was good to meet you Nimminz. The condition of your car is a credit to it's previous keepers, and I have no doubt you will keep it just as good.

Now get the MiG out. :wink: :lol:

Cheers lads. The two cars were getting a bit of attention from the usual Paxo/Corsa B etc. brigade lol. All positive too.

I'll say it here to be quoted by future generations: 2010 is the year of the Volvo 300. :lol: 340pw

Some lad asked if mine was for sale too (in Washington) so I gave him one of VND's biz cards and told him to check out this site. :D
He'd been to the JDMallstars drift day at Nissan and wanted a budget piece of the action. 8)

Mchudd, who knows mate. I can't remember what my top bid was. :lol: As you can see, it gets much use from me. 8)

Fuck that. The World Cup final was on. :lol:

My days, or is that nights? being spent in car parks are long gone. roffle. I don't mind the odd excursion, but we used to do it every night and stay out until like 5am in the summer on a weekend. :roll:

haha, we had Lee's bus with a TV in it, live match coverage!

Sundays 7-9 are as much as I'll do, I'd rather be driving around in my evenings.
