Hello from my new SIII!

#1

Post by MJNewton »

I wasn't sure where to post this but whilst I might not be new to the site my new car is!

I picked up an 2009 SIII today from Dave ('wessieworld83') over at UKHCC:

It's in great condition and has only done 39k miles so should last me a while!

I was casually browsing for SIII's last weekend when it suddenly appear and a week later it's mine - I don't normally make decisions like this that quick.That said, I say 'quick' but I've actually been contemplating buying an SIII for a few years now so perhaps it's not that quick afterall!!

Readers may recall me talking about grey SIII's recently and my questions about swapping out the red interior for black... Well, I actually think it is kind of growing on me now that I've seen it in the flesh... :icon-lol:

Very nice!!! Welcome to the SIII club. Red interior goes really well with the grey. Are you going to be doing much with it?
Please thank the folks who help. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Yeah, I will miss it Dodge. It's funny how you get attached to a lump of metal. That's why I like breaking a car for parts as I feel that some of it can live on that way!

I think that's what dupe likes, knowing that his car lives on in other peoples coupes :happy-partydance:

Enjoy your new one mate :handgestures-thumbupleft:
