  • um........ im back?!

    long time no speak gentlemen/ladies

    ive started perusing the forums again to see what is going on in Audiland.

    ive been through a lot in the past 2 or 3 years, and first off I would like to say sorry to anyone I offended, without due cause......... I am whole heartedly sorry

    Before I left/stop posting I sold a lot of parts, spares, belongings, memories etc and ive had some messages with questions etc about previously mentioned items I have obviously not replied to,

    I have read and replied to ALL PM`s received, again I apologise for not being contactable through the site and/or I'm guessing my old telephone numbers!

    I hope all of the tech questions relating to my B5 AAN Quattro, my C4 S4 Avant and my B4 Quattro Saloon (and the 3xmk3 golf GTi`s/VR6`s) have all been sorted out in one way or another

    I will be a regular user/looker/perv/minimal poster of S2 Forum

    Little admition or admittance of pride but I am now free of my old Demons, and those who knew me well also knew about my battle to see my (at the time he was 2, going on 3years old!) son, I now have him every 2 weeks without fail via court order
    Ben will be 5 in a few weeks and my parents have also moved from Newcastle to Norfolk to be close to me and Ben and everything in my life is so so good right now.

    I am still currently on a driving ban until March 2017 due to me being a frickin male chicken at the worst point of my court battle to see my son, sods law trying to help a so called mate out with one of his cars and getting disqualified in the process, but it all ads up to one big focus and a much happier place concentrating on Ben and my family.

    I do however still own a car..........
    And I may ensue some stick for it but fk it!

    As I'm sure you are ALL aware, I'm a Ford man at heart, always have been.
    I own a very very rare Ford Sierra Sapphire 4x4 Ghia, in Magenta I have in a lockup garage for when I get my licence back.
    Needs a few bits as its been off the road for 7 years, but I plan to just use it at weekends, do my CBT and moped to work and back during the week for the next year and over next winter, um, I may be doing a 2.2 20vT conversion on it, keeping the Ford 4x4 setup and just using a hybrid one off sump to mount it all together.

    but I will make a build thread if you all lovely people will accept me back, and if you want I will put up some pics of the old neglected 7 year sleeping Sapphire!

    Kindest Regards

          Sounds like you've had a bad time of it?........but you have a plan!
          Partial to an old Ford so look forward to some pictures. Did the 4x4 Ghia come with the twin cam only or did it come in 2.9 V6 as well........I'm thinking just the 4-pot?

              Remember all the shanigans so it's brill to hear your more settled especially concerning where your son is concerned.Mine will be 6 end of Oct. I know we love our cars but the feelings that come with having a son far outweighs anything we feel for our cars. Best of luck mate!

                          Good evening gentlemen,

                          thankyou for all of the positive comments and such likes!

                          I shal pick this up again this weekend as I am relocating/moving house AGAIN (well over 10 times now since 2008!!!)

                          I will post some pics of the Sapphire, My plans of the build and how it will be done over a long term period.

                          Also, I have took the decision to move from Brentwood in Essex.......

                          I will be moving to and working from Dereham in Norfolk.

                          If any of you guys are close by let me know please, will be good to speak to other car humans as I am making a clean break and will not know ANYONE besides my parents who are an hour away from me (also moved from Newcastle less than 2 months ago to Long Stratton)

                          Looking forward to speaking to you all again and breaking out my Saff for all to see

                          p.s moving away due to fresh clean start, and much much MUCH cheaper property prices and more chance of building my workshop on the side of a house in a couple of years... I will be staying here forever

                          Kindest regards, Sean
