New owner, old fan

Post by falanex »

Hey folks,

Great to be a newly registered member of the OC, I've been lurking for far too long. I bought an RX8 a couple years ago from a member on the forum, and it's a gorgeous, low mile model. It's been a great project for the boys and me, needed some fairly extensive 'surface' rust treatment and now my rebuild kit has just arrived so it'll be on the roads soon!

Hopefully see some of you at the next meet.

All the best,
Iain

you have to be a member to upload images, so as you're still showing as a guest this will not work

the mods need a day or two to sort this out usually

Nevermind, we'll just pretend I'm a 90 year old carpenter who's never gone to an internets before. Anyone need a door hanging?
