Hi, My names Jack. I thought I would introduce myself here for now as I currently don't have a car so don't feel qualified for the main section.
Anyway, I've been lurking these forums for ages, over a year now i think, found it around the same time Rusty was unveiled as being rusty.
I'm currently a student studying in Portsmouth, spend most of the time I'm supposed to be working online on here or playing COD or masturbating (on a side note, watched black swan yesterday ) , you know how it is. Anyway, around xmas '09 I found out that my brother was getting a car for his 21st birthday, naturally i assumed that i would get the same treatment for my 21st and if I didn't i would throw a strop and cry until mummy made daddy buy me a car. luckily there was no need for tears as my dad said yes.
The hunt was then on for a car. My initial ideas where all based from Forza cos I play that like I play the ladiez . yeah, so, bmw e30 was where i started, through that I got an interest in all old BMWs which is what lead me to rusty and this forum (also Neek's e21 :O) But since then and browsing forums galore and sites like speedhunters etc My tastes have branched out somewhat.
Anyway, I turned 21 in Jan but wanted to wait till after finishing uni till getting it done. theres only like 2 months left of uni no so i need to start putting things in motion. I want to try and get a car over the easter break but that probs won't happen tbh because I still don't know what to get
So far i've narrowed it down to:
bmw e21, e30, e36, e12, e28, e34, e24, 2002, 1602... pretty much i like all old bmw
mercedes w123
audi a4, 80 avant (this has to be quattro tho)
toyota MR2 aw11
mazda mx-5 NA or NB
volvo 240
not a small list but that should make it easier. So far I've come within a dogs dick hair of a sweet 1602, and a V8 e34. quite glad i didn't end up with the e34 though but I really wanted that 02 . Anyway, been looking on pistonheads and ebay etc. for so long now for these old BMWs that I've seen some of the same cars bought and sold a few times lol.
but year, need to make a list of pros and cons or something cos I keep changing my mind, I'll probably end up just getting which ever one of those comes up first in the right condition and right price.
Anyone who has some recommendation or insider tips or something for any of these cars then holla at me bro.
I've got a budget for this which i want to definitely include the car and the lows and pref wheels but i might just roll on some steelies for a while till i get fundz fo da rimz.
But yeah, on a more serious note. I've noticed an increase in members on this site especially UK members so thought I would get my game on and get in here cos I'm worried a little bit. I've read similar worries that the growing stance trend is attracting n00bz from Maccy Deez to sites like this and watering down the awesomeness of the cars with sub-par additions. I hope this isn't and doesn't happen. I don't want to seem elitist or anything but the site is amazing as it is because of the level of the cars on here and the nature of the members. I hope that SW|UK continues to represent itself in a comparable way to the US folks and that I can contribute my car in the near future and attend meets etc.
Thankyou goodnight much love.
p.s. here's a pic cos that was just text. It's my Mums skoda yeti p'shopd
