Oh no! Not another one!

Hello to all.

Joined a while ago, allready posted some messages but never introduced myself properly.

I'm Ronald, age 25 and live in Holland.

Recently bought the GT from Auto EP82 (he's on TGTT):

Before that I used to have a black starlet with a 1.3 non turbo 12V 2E-E motor. Owned it for almost 3 years and then I noticed a nice silver GT

(I know the scoop thingy isn't fitted well)

Got not much time now, so this is it for now.

See ya!! Cheers!

Ronald.

I've posted a nice story about that trip on our dutch forum but it's too much to translate it all.

Here are the pictures we've made on that day and the day after it at the DVLA.

[Evil Twin]

It was a great trip!

Learn much that day!

And you englisch guys! Please talk slower for us!

Damn what a speed in your language!

[Guest Enzo]

that is a great gtt,

it has alot of nice parts!

the trip you took to the uk to pic up the starlet looks like an adventure.

do you have plans to convert the automatic to manual or, are you happy with the auto perfomrance?

welcome to uksc!!!

ps bet you were beesting at it on the boat!

[Ronald]

Thanks Enzo!

A great trip it was for sure!

I do'nt have any plans to convert it to manual, really like the automatic gearbox and it has enough power for me

Only thing I really got planned right now is getting a set of Tom's sideskirts and that's going pretty well so far
