Alz_D 3 Report post Posted October 29, 2018 Hi Everyone, Picking up my first 86 on Sunday. Fell in love with the cars as soon as I saw them but had to wait till now to actually own one. Its a 67 plate club series in the subtle orange colour. Seems to be a good community on here - I've been lurking for a while now. Car will remain standards for a while, mainly due to the warranty and the fact that I've had company cars for years so insurance is not so great at the moment.. But eventually I do hope to spend some money and get the thing turbo'd. For now I just want to drive and enjoy it... Roll on Sunday!

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 30, 2018 Welcome aboard. If you can pick it up early enough, you could make the EVO Triangle run! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GravelRash 62 Report post Posted October 30, 2018 Hi and welcome. The car won't stay standard for long. If nothing else, you'll be upgrading the paper speakers in the dash and the doors! G. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alz_D 3 Report post Posted October 30, 2018 Thanks for all the replies - as much as I'd love to meet up after collection I don't think it's going to be ready in time. Shame as I'm from North Wales originally and I love the roads! Do you usually put photos and stuff up on here afterwards? I will probably sort out the speakers - it's one thing I didn't try before signing on the dotted line. The car had sold itself already by then! My current car is nothing special but the stereo is pretty good for a standard system. It's a real rabbit hole once you start looking at mods though so much that you can do to these cars. Wish I had a wallet big enough. It's going to be a keeper though so plenty of time for all that! Seems I have Mike@td just up the road as well so I know where to go when I decide to play ha ha Alex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAS 25 Report post Posted November 6, 2018 Welcome!I think I saw your car at RRG Salford a few weeks ago. Possibly also in Trafford college car park more recently I think I lasted 6 months before I ended up at Tuning Developments for the NA kit I wish I had got it sooner tho!
