gpz900r 0 Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Well yes ive been away sorting car and return to the forum a very happy chap New Coil, new HT leads and new cap and rotor arm and by god has my car come alive, shes an animal, YES I have earned the car now and happily driving, The actual problem was the spring in the distributor cap not moving and a shorting coil, two problems making one big one. Ive paid my folks off to build a garage at there house so my moving is no problem. The car is totally perfect and there is no way im selling it. Might consider a swap for a white S3 but thats about the only thing you will shift me on.... 3 Cheers for Ms Monaco Yeehaaarrrrrrrrrrrrr...........................

gpz900r 0 Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Had a feeling you would get it all sorted in the end! :Is the S1 challenge back on <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Indeed, new girlfriend and working car, life is bliss! Done more miles today than in the last month, so smooth its untrue, Only problem is im running out of excuses to take the car out, As soon as I get home I sit down for a few minutes and then back out again, what with the bond film on friday night there seems to be extra head turning going on! Just pleased to bits! umm, wonder if I need to go to the garage and check the tyre presures again or maybe I need another bottle of milk, yea I think I do Quote Link to post Share on other sites

About time we met then mate? Being so local and all! Was out your way the other week at Guiting farm, to see some lambing and other animal stuff, chicks hatching and other manly pursuits etc, ace! ...Although i suggest meeting for a shandy or summink. ...rather than more goat petting.

My new girlfriend lives only 5 minutes from Witney so if you want to meet somewhere near there sometime? Im down oxford way all the time now...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Troy Halliday Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Very happy for you mate and may you be very happy together All this talk off driving your Esprit is making me very envious, I just get to spend 6 hours a night rebuilding mine. I could proberbly make it to the local shop in it but I'd be nakered pushing all the way back up that hill again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blokes who own newish convertables start kissing and holding there girlfriends........... Now Ive been getting into acting for a while but I feel like a star anyway! I knew that the odd head might turn but never in a million years dreamed of anything like this, had kids running down the road next to me earlier today shouting its james bond! lol what a laugh, car is just getting better and better, got to work tommorow but half day friday for more driving around.......... Just fantastic..... Thankyou for all your support over the last few months and kind words.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
