Ulphy86 9 Report post Posted April 19, 2017 Hi All, I have been a forum lurker for a while and have wanted a GT86 for years. I finally picked her up a couple of weeks ago and am loving it so far. Look forward to seeing some of you in the future! 😊 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 Welcome aboard. Plenty of meets and socials starting now we are moving towards summer. Any plans for the car? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulphy86 9 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 I am in Thurrock  nikndel Plans wise, One of the first big things I want to do is upgrade the stereo, I had an Pioneer setup in the last one (Hyundai i10) and I miss it a bit even though the rest of the car is such an upgrade I also quite like the idea of blacking out the wheels and badges (again something i had done before) But I would use a similar product to plasti dip, it's cheaper if you change your mind! I am limited to mainly cosmetic stuff at the moment as the insurance company have been a bit iffy with any engine mods. But I am changing them at the end of the month so you never know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Willtl 54 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 Thurrock! Any more specifics, I'm in Grays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulphy86 9 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 Haha, never know how specific to be, I am in Grays too!! Do not know how I have never spotted you lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Willtl 54 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 hah. I'll keep my eyes out. I only use the BRZ at the weekend (normally for trips to retail park or shopping) or when I drive to the office (work from home). The rest of the time it is in the garage and I use the Dodge Journey.

Ulphy86 9 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 Ah that makes sense. I do love that colour, the one to have on the BRZ. Though that Hyper Blue they have in the other markets is nice, possibly a bit bold for the UK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ztox 230 Report post Posted April 20, 2017 Welcome to the club! Quite a few of us 'active' in Essex. There will be an '86 meet not too far from you soon so keep an eye out Also, if you're stuck for something to do on Sunday morning there is a 'Cars & Coffee' meet at the Museum of Power in Maldon which I should be at and I'm guessing there is a good chance of @nikndel and @Leevsfortyone being there too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
