Hey all,
After browsing forums, this looked the friendliest and most proffessional
I am not a man who just likes one make, or nationality, of car and feel that there are too many great cars out there to miss otherwise. My passions so far have been;
Peugeot 306 GTI6's - I have had a string of these and love them to bits. Contrary to opinions, these have always been very reliable for me (although he electrics leave much to be desired
)
Honda CRX mkII's - Fantastic little cars, way ahead of their time. I bought a late spec UKDM 16i16 and spent £6k and 2 years replacing every single part of the car (literally) with the best parts possible. The Integra type R engine eventually made 220.7 bhp at 8300 revs, in a car which finally weighed around 750 Kg. I knew nothing about cars when I started and did every piece of work myself (after hours of research and lots of cursing!!) apart from the respray. I still own this car but unfortunately, it is now to nice to use as a dd
Golf GTI mkII (8v) - My Mrs car (and real lover). This has a fast road cam and coilovers. Great little car, in great condition, although it is starting to feel a little tired. For this reason, it is going in my garage, for a lengthy period, to be completely overhauled......
This brings me to my lovely new (in 1994) Audi
I drove it home today and we are already on very good terms
It has been in dry storage for 10 years (apparently) and is a minter. I am an OEM man nowadays but the 16v engine is a little tame and the suspension a little soft, so some subtle adjustments are in order.
I look forward to meeting you all

everyone regrets selling them, although after a bit of searching, it seems to be the same case with S2's
