Ronald Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 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.

Ronald Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 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 Ronald.
