starletburkie Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) After nearly 5 years boosting starlets my last one pushed me over the edge! In a year and a half ownership in blew 5 engines in various ways along with the thousands I spent and lost on it! Think its time to move on and go for a bit of rwd fun so bit the bullet and sold it today Edited April 17, 2013 by starletburkie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
