Brinksy with the engine counter sat at 3.5?

Steve^ and his photography?

Yep Elephantasmo

6' 8" in his bare feet

He had a lovely banana 16VT that was on its third engine, 2nd gearbox, etc etc He'd had so much trouble with it and had thrown loads of money at it but had finally decided that him and coupes were not to be.

I travelled down by train to look at it about 3 years ago. Drove it back to his house and started to give it the once over. I got underneath it and it soaking, some kind of fluid leak. Decided I'd give it a miss and he drove me back to the station. On the way back his DV started mooing like a Jersey Cow

He wasn't a lucky chap

IIRC SA_20v moderates a Formula 1 forum.

Don't you mean Burnsy? with engine counter at 7.5 or similar?

I was going to say welformed but i have just noticed he is lurking about

BigT sold up and bought a Supra I think but wasn't all it cracked up to be. Last I heard he was sort of thinking about getting a Coop again.

Another one who was a regular was joe.

Sold his coupe, got a Z3 and then wrote it off

I think he then got a Skyline or a Supra

How about:

Cen, Biglad, Trevkx (or something like that - had the fettled red 16VT)

Yeh I remember TrevX and his mate who had a 200sx.

Haven't heard from Nazo for ages. Good guy , went to a power run with him and he made the insurance sticky.

Then there is Gibbo, Matt (from S.A), Woodmaster, Boysie, Kev (SM from the SX forum), what's his name that used to have the HF Integrale avatar (troublemaker!)? Sorry to say that I have forgotten the name of Civic Legends mate who used to be on here, now has the Clio V6?
Ah, happy days , well, mostly.

Sl0ggs has his Elise up for sale and is working hard. Sadly has split up with Sarah though. Just had a quick chat with him on the phone.

Boysie is on now and again. Depends which Gibbo you mean as I think we have one but not the one from ages ago who lived in Scotland. And CL's mate was _Tom_ wasn't it?

Sure he popped in randomly only a number of weeks ago..

Yeah _tom_ sold his car to Ringy, now has a V6 Clio

Who was the fellow who had a Coupe that the sheep took a fancy to?

Pinin?

Ah, no he took a fancy to the sheep

That's Tipoboy, he's in Canada now with the Coop.

Last time I spoke to Steve^, I was advising him on sound treatment for the studio he bought - ex Oxford Scientific I think - which he was renting out as a facilities place.

Neil

Yes, bloody hell, what was his name?

And who was the bloke who came back to his Coupe in the station car park one night and the doors in time-honoured fashion were frozen up, so he had to crawl through the ski hatch...

Indeed it was Dave Not heard from him for a while.

Anyone remember the Ink Black Coupé that was covered in white paint? He posted the pictures on the old forum

I'm sure the car is on here but it now has a new owner

Wasn't that Piers?

Anyone remember James who started the original forum along with KJ? I bumped into him in Camberley the other day driving a 1 series he moved from Coupe to TT to Golf and then no doubt countless others, and there's me still stuck with the same cars ten years later

You're right, and Scorzon with the stoppers/bungs for the rear wiper hole.

Was it italian car nut?? remember the arguments about the delta evo 2 clutch.

Now that was a long time back! Come on James, give us a post to say hello if you ever browse this thread

Did Heinzeman ever find his plus?

That was it

Scorzon sold his Coupe on here a while back.

It was Piers' ink black that got covered in paint, well done MrO

And who was it who managed to suck a paper towel into his turbo after forgetting to remove it following some under-bonnet work? Added bounce?

And the guy who found he had painted his Coupé yellow after the shelf in the garage gave way and dropped a paint pot onto the bonnet?

LMAO, yep apparantly he bought one from Lord Lucan and the both drove off into the sunset with the holy grail in the glove box

Added bounce?

That was Roddyn, oh I laughed. Now riding around in a very yellow Mazda RX8 rather than a banana coop.

Oh my word! There are some classic memories on here. I'd forgotten all about the added bounce!! Keep them coming!
