    Newbie..... Again....... with some pics!

    First post!

    Hi All,
    I was a member many years ago (can't remember my username)

    returning to the boards as I'm after another 5, which will bring my ownership tally to 5!

    So far I've had
    F129 SAD around 1998. Tungsten Grey.
    Stuck some R19 wheels on, usual dump valve, lowered etc.

    H949EBY around 2000. Another Tungsten Grey
    Really clean, from a guy that worked at Renault at the time. Slightly modded also!

    F602 HGK around 2002. my 3rd Tungsten Grey!
    Highly modded on coilovers, cage, loads of GT Tuning Stuff and K Tec stuff. Ran up to 22lb of boost!

    G333 OGC around 2007 was a Raider.
    Subtly modded and partly restored as it was tired when I got it. Sold it to a mate who took it off the road to do some stuff with and it's never seen daylight since!

    So, I'm now looking for another 5, preferably a Raider but whatever I get I want as original as possible or subtly modded (nothing that can't be put back to standard) but must be clean and tidy

    Re: Newbie..... Again

    Cheers fella,

    I'm torn at the moment as I want something nice and original..... But I love modifying

    Something clean and tidy and fairly original that I can subtly modify, but nothing that couldn't be undone might tick my boxes

    Welcome!

    Some proper tidy cars! Exactly the type of styling that I like!

    Good luck in finding a new one, and I look forward to seeing what you do with it!

    Welcome back
    Haha yes I'm back again!!

    I have the option to buy this Raider back, but it's been completely stripped for rebuild.
    Too much work I feel

    Cheers Steve,
    Hoping for something a bit like I had but maybe a little more original looking. Not sure yet

    Know what you are saying, I too have the modifying bug and have done since started driving. Both my cars will be Oem+ ie, original but lowered with turbines with a bit of engine work
