Just a quick intro

[johnny]

Hello everyone,

I thought I'd better do a quick introduction after buying my 1st S12. It's a pretty standard car with as far as i can see a standard engine, it certainly doesn't feel uprated

I've been reading the forum picking up a few tips and learning what I can so the 1st thing to do seems to be to improve the exhaust although I'm on a pretty tight budget. Be prepared for quite a few questions as a noob although I'll try not to post the more commonly asked questions.

Cheers

Hello Claire

I'm between Sheffield and Chesterfield and my S12 is an ebay special so isn't mint by any stretch of the imagination. And it needs more boost!

Yep i remember seeing that one on ebay. The wheels arnt the nicest but definalty better than the standard wheels. It doesnt look too bad at all.

hi there mate, i know that car it originaly came from pilsley in chesterfield, then it went up durham way if i'am not mistaken, my niece's fella nearly bought it from when it was up pilsley, so its come back to where it belongs , are you at dronfield then mate ?

I was looking through the old mot's and was suprised to see it was originally from just down the road in Chesterfield, I'm near Crystal Peaks.

The photos do probably make it look better than it really is as it is a little bit rough around the edges but is still fairly presentable from a distance . I can't make my mind up if I should leave the wheels on or fit the originals back on that came with it.
