Hello CVR4, very long time no see, and great to see this club doing very well.
Apparently it's been 8 years since I was last here!
Still miss my old "Whitey", pics of which still seem to be in my profile after all this time.
Does anyone know where it ended up at all? It was a bit of sorry state last time I saw it (early members might recall!), but I always wondered whether it would resurface in the real world.
Keep up the good work all.
Cheers,
James
Hi Jimbo. So many cars have succumed to the dreaded rust that it may be no more. Prices have also hit rock bottom so many don't get the love they deserve.
Still great fun and still off the radar for many people. Bet you miss it?
:happy:
Hi James. Good to see you
I'm still lurking around these parts although not had a VR4 for 10 years. I know where my Silver one is...still with the same chap I sold it to.:o
Do you still go out to "play" with "The Usual Suspects" ?
I remember being passenger with you around Combe many moons ago. Been around a good few times since.
Cheers

No idea if it is still around. Not many saloons still around and very few facelift pearl whites. What are you driving now? Still got the Skyline?

As for the skyline I nearly broke, long gone. last I heard he's got an M3. /Hissy
the broke bit ?? …… we were in a hotel in Adenau, needed to go to Lidl to get burgers etc for a BBQ. I drove the R33 because James was in no fit state to walk, let alone drive !!
When I park, I always leave a car in gear. Jimbo doesn't. so, after a few black coffee's, he decided he was able to drive back. started the car without depressing the clutch !! /Hyper wall 1... R33 nil !! :skull:
No serious damage done...… but it was all my fault..... apparently !!
Oh heheheeh, yeah that sounds about right D! I also remember the time at the Ring's main-drag petrol station where I was too eager to get back to lapping, completely failing to realise you were getting out of the car....the sight and sound of you hopping, one leg in, one leg out and shouting "waaaaait!" Thinking about the latter, that must have been in the VR4, given the door situation!!
Yep, sorry to say I've been slumming an old M3 for a while now. I do miss the R33 and the two VR4's though.
Great to see you still here too Malc and Nick, hope you're both well. Malc, it seems you've have had quite the collection in the intervening time, according to your sig, and...Nick...love you still have the Dirty Boy avatar, hehe. I still remember you getting my feelings about the White one spot-on, deep into the Blue-one ownership. You said "your hearts not in this one, is it?" Truer words were never spoken. Nothing can replace the old pearlescent one, but the Blue-one had it's charms too.
Ah, well. All good things come to an end. No regrets - great cars, which created excellent memories around various UK and continental motorsport venues with the fine folks I met here.
Take care, all.
Hello Jimbo
Nice to see you visit...
Just a few:happy:. Time for a change. Had the S3 for nearly 3 years now but it is probably the best car I've had since the Silver VR4. Still miss that one./yesQuote:

Hey Valmes, what are you driving these days?, my VR4 is sill on the go :)
Hey Jimbo! Good to hear your good!
Pop in a few times, I suspect a ring trip needs to organised for old people soon!
