My first car was a 84 honda accord, although it may not sound like the best car in the world, i loved it to bits.


Then while being a tad silly i hit a curb, and must've bent the wishbone or somethin, cause it dont steer quite right anymore. Since i have a work car as well i never got around to fixing, its one of my to do things.

Every time i see her at my parents house, i feel a little nostalgic.

So thats why this weekend just gone when i went to visit my dad, i started it for the first time in about a year (which took a long time mind you) took it up on the road, and did the biggest 6k clutch dump it has ever done!

Was fully sik habib!

Yeah I've narrowed it down to two R32s. So will probs put a deposit down on one of them tomorrow depending on if they accept my offer. If they don't they'll be waking up with a horses head in their bed, then they'll accept.

I never missed this thing when I sold it in 79 to buy a brand new RS2000 but somehow it must have gotten into my mind as every few years I'll have a really bad dream about it & wake up thinking I still own it in some form of neglected state.
My first fast car, big V8 & spent a fortune on it over the next 5yrs only to sell it for shit to a guy who the day after buying it (I was living on a mine site north of Kalgoorlie at the time) went through a huge puddle on the way home from the Agnew pub, & the only way to clean the screen was for him & his mates to stand on the bonnet & piss on the windscreen lol "asshole" (could have been the trigger).

RIP XAL.087
Did all the same shit you do now, zorst, gauges, wheels, tint, engine mods etc etc

Yeah

TBH I hate trying to screw him for the cheapest price because it's only done 5000kms and he must have paid 65K only 6 months ago, but thats what happens when you buy brand new. The price drops quicker than a whores undies.

I'd miss my car too much if I sold it, therefore, I won't be selling it
