[Mk2] [Turbo] It's MINE....Purple Mincing Machine Alert

[Rowland]

Rowland, congratulations with your very nice purchase, hope you will enjoy it

I am however very surprised that Frank sold it to you as I have been in contact with him since feb 20 when he accepted my offer on the car as 2nd dibbs.
1st dibbs beeing a guy that he met way back last year who made him an offer if he ever were to sell and Frank felt committed to offer his car to this person first.
Frank promised me that if that deal fell through, my offer was acceptable and he would sell the car to me.
I have been eagerly waiting for Frank to contact me which he hasn't done since last PM I got from him 12 days ago.
You however beeing the new owner now state that you never met him till a few days ago???
I an confused to say the least!!

Hello there, sorry to hear of your confusion.

To clear this up.
A firm cash offer was made by me on the 15th or 16th of Feb 2007.
It sounds like you were offered 2nd dibbs in the event falling through.
The deal remained sound and the transaction took place.

The end.

Hello everyone and of course Rowland

Finally made it down the gym/swimming pool in my new "barge" to be able to access the Web


First up thanks to everyone wishing me well and some of the nice comments about me personally.. I'm touched

Tis true it was a hard decsion to make after all the time, effort, money and sometimes blood that went into the making of the car... ok it isnt a beast engine wise but it's pretty, pulls very well (accelerating that is ) - mind you would Becci have even given me a second look if i had a mk1 (only joking hun )

Have been known as a "cheque book tuner" to some - but to be honest before i owned this car i didn;t know the difference between a spanner and a wrench - so it's been a good journey all round.

Was sad to see her drive off up my road but it's good to see she's gone to a good home, and someone who obviusly loves MR2's as much as i do.

I'll still be on IMOC of course, I've met too many great people and now have a bunch of friends that I didn;t before (it was originally the reason i joined - billy no mates here ) - so I'll still be at meets, and looking forward to seeing people again soon... wheelchair in hand

Oh and I've now gone to an Audi A4 V6 sport - quite bargelike but it's a stepping stone to an RS4 - one day !!

you cheeky git well there was me praising you huh...your cruising for a bruising sonny

Frank you will always be you-u goon..with or without cosmos you better stay around or i'll get the hump

Some of you lot are cheeky gits! Yes that is the TRD engine bay...

Sorry you sold it Frank, but saw Rowland with it last Friday and the biggest grin ever. He'll look after it don't you worry.

Now make sure you still come to meets, including JAE, barge or no barge!

thanks Toni, yes I'll still be going to JAE.. a weekend camping might actually be good for my back

I'm still on IMOC - I'm not going anywhere.. it's more about the people than the cars to me now anyway

Agreed,I've made some good friends through this club, regardless of what cars they drive I hope to remain friends

Frank you will always be you-u goon..with or without cosmos you better stay around or i'll get the hump

think you've hit the nail on the head with that statement
I'm still about - not as often as before as I'm still off work ...

Oh and Rowland - don't worry I'kll be changing my avatar soon - if you want the link for it just shout - but i expect you'll be wanting a more uptodate one anyway...

Think i might change my avatar to a face shot

That made me cringe

Take an airbed with you (or an airhead if she's fit)

No worries matey
I thought about stealing your avatar but it's a picture imoc'ers associate with you so, it would hardly be fair.
When the weather improves Cosmos will have the full works done in the cleaning department, and I'll take some new shots.
Mind you, I've always wondered how you created the flashy headlight thing you've got going on....?
