Newbie Hello.. again.

Post by renmure » Tue Jan 24, 2006 7:33 pm

Hi,

Think I regestered on here ages ago, then.. demonstrating my wonderful memory and computing skills... couldnt find the forum again!! I have lurked for a while on the Yahoo email thingy since Wendy and I got our Ruby Red S2 from MMC a couple of years back. We had that car on track a couple if times then we swapped it at MMC for a Saffron Yellow 111R last summer after seeing one up in the carpark at KH .. complete with black wheels.

Have already met Si and Phil after they appeared at the house not long after we get the car. Hoping to go to a few more trackdays at KH after getting a second taster when Murrays had their free track day in the summer.

Jim

Hiya Ross.

I never thought about asking you how to find my way back here :oops:

I semi decided to hold on to the megablade although I have recently renewed the ad on pistonheads. (ya can guess that I never know whether I am coming or going!) There was a fair bit of interest but since Scottyland is a bit out of the way for most 7-type owners, most of them wanted to haggle on price before asking about the car itself. If I drove it as often as you drive yours then selling wouldnt be in my mind, or even if Wendy would have another go at driving it then that would be a start. I think the loud noise when she tried to go up from 2nd gear to 1st gear at about 11k rpm put her off. It sort of sounded like ... NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! :shock:

No, the term "hairdryer" was more likely to have been used :lol:
