Default Anyone on here from Doncaster?

I post in this section quite a bit, saying that i've seen X number of cars, but noone seems to reply.

Either im seeing people that are not on this forum, or my car is invisible in which case it seems like only the local plod can see me!!

V3 STI Type R.

Its a winter project.

Got the rolling shell complete with:
DCCD gearbox and diff
All Interior, door cards carpets etc (Except front seats)
Tein Coilovers
White Line ARB's and uprated drop links all round.

Here's a couple of pics.









It's had a slight front ender and has no engine



Have a guess how much I paid for it?

Shut it fool. If you read the post properly you'll notice that I had been to Sheffield Scoobies meet at Carbrook Hall. If it was the guy that was there and followed me home he'd have known it was the 500bhp white classic as the car got quite alot of attention.

Even if it wasn't him he'd have a good idea of the power it's running as I cleared off once on the motorway!!

Whats with the sarcasm anyway? Touch of the greeneyed???

Nah, Chocolate's not green-eyed, he's just havin' a laff-riot

Me and him are from Scunny, but I get over to Donny a bit. I used to have family over there, Wath, Mexborough, Conisborough, Wentworth.

Ever seen the "Doncaster Dialect Test"?

Actually, If there is anyone in Donny or near with a 1999 classic I could do with borrowing your maf sensor for 5 mins for some trouble shooting.

Its literally a two minute job and would save me 100 quid.

Cheers
