    newbie from portsmouth

    First post!

    hi everyone, i have had 5's before when i was younger but i have just picked up a raider in need of some serious TLC so thought it best to get on here and make the most of all the knowledge. Its more of a resto project at the moment until its up and running with an mot.

    hope to speak to some of you soon

    Hi Adam, Just down the road from you in Fareham. Mines off the road having work done at the moment too.
    Were pretty lucky in this area as we have Mike (phase 1 16v) and Tony (fishead) just up the road and theres not much more you could hope for when working on a 5.
