Hi from not so sunny Kent.

Post by mitch1987 »

Hi guys my names mitch I'm 27 and a mechanic from kent.

So the story goes I'm selling off all my projects and toys to save some money for a business venture and was bidding a guy on a 05 gen 3.5 as a run around or sell on to make a few quid. He refused my offer so I bought a focus as a run around as it was local and cheap. That same night 30min after I bought the focus he messaged me saying fine come and get it....... Crap. Went down last night to buy the coupe thinking I would sell it on and earn a few quid but I just can't, it's a cracking little car so here I am, new member with a few plans for the little coupe.

Next on the list is get it lower, wheels and fit a boot build. I've had highly modified cars and currently own a skyline and a highly modified civic coupe but there both going so the hyundai will be my new show car project.

Hope to see some of you guys around

Mitch
