Title: Essex boi
Post by: hkp on September 08, 2011, 06:03:22 pm: I've been posting about on a few threads as well as lurking a lot, but I feel rude for not introducing myself!

Tom, 32, from Essex, looking for a partner for good times, car geeking, and maybe more?

Oh, hang on, wrong forum :ashamed: :innocent: :grin:

Golf is a red, manual, 57 plate, 3 door. Poverty spec, but I'm working on that!!!

I do have 18 Monza 2s, but theyre a bit wormy. Looking to either refurb, or trade for something else (some mint 17's?)

Mods are on their way, I'll report back as and when they're done!

Welcome too :happy2:

Thanks for the offer, but I don't want to go any smaller than 17.. I'd be happy with some Monzas I guess.

Post by: hkp on September 13, 2011, 10:06:39 pm: I'm thinking maybe of refurbing my 18s after all.. I might prefer black though this time. What do you people think they'd look like on a red car?
