Finally! Nearly 4 years later...

[Confused]

Well, nearly 4 years after first signing up to ClubVR4, I finally have one!


Today I took the trip from sunny Swindon to sunny Colchester, where I left the saloon and jumped in my dad's car to go to sunny Eastbourne, to look at a Legnum.


Arrived and met the owner, who handed us the keys and said "feel free to have a look around", so my dad, who was a Ralliart trained technican, had a good look around.

He then took it out for the first drive up the road, testing out the AYC fully by going round a roundabout pretty quickly a couple of times!

After a few miles he pulled over and I jumped into the driving seat, for my first ever drive of a VR-4!

Knocked it into Drive, indicated to pull away, and hit the throttle... OMG! [JeremyClarkson] POWWAAHHH!!! [/JeremyClarkson]


Blasted down a couple of dual carriageways, and round some roundabouts, and did a little bit of slow-speed town driving, with a HUGE grin on my face!

Took it back to his house, had a little talk with my dad, who said that he felt it was a good car... and then proceeded to hand over copious amounts of money in exchange for a small green bit of paper... oh, and a bunch of keys!

I've driven it about 80 miles so far, mainly motorway/slow A-roads, and the occasional foot-to-the-floor blasts, and have ~7/8ths of a tank left


So, the car... as was owned by mitzitech2007:








Was great to see you today, and rest assured that it will have very good care taken of it, and I plan to enjoy it!!

Very nice looking car

And a very interesting looking aftermarket airbox in the shape of an OE Airbox


I need to see what Lurks inside


Cheers

Nev for taking me out in his when I collected the saloon, and Alan for peaking my interest again and telling me how much better than a Prelude it is...
