tomorrow will be a sad day indeed as the gtt is off to its new home.
i didnt expect it to sell soo quick tbh and was more than willing to hide it away for the summers, but the new owner seams genuine and seams like she will look after him very well.

this evening was a good fairwell pressent for the 5 though as i had a fastcar photo shoot

heres a couple of photos i took before i got too numb to take many more. i got to take my hat off to them for managing to blag the new shopping centre for the shoot!!

Good upgrade, Clio is crying out for a front splitter, cup spoiler, coilovers. Done

Not so sure on the "upgrade" :) but deffinettly a good alternative. Love your 5's bay, and atleast your seeing it go at its best and not getting rid after letting it sit around rotting.

Looking good matey, I am sure you will be back they all come back:laugh: You will miss the turbo:D

Is that the new debenhams up Bury St Edmunds? was up that way few weeks back seeing my Grandad, is a pretty cool looking building.

thats the place james.it used to light up at night but they took the lights down.still made an awesome background though!!

i may well come back to another 5 at some point, but by then i'll be able to afford a toy aswell as a car im not affraid to use.
i'll try my best to get the new owner on here

its now gone :cry::cry::cry::cry:

now we're down to a clio dci and a 182. still got a renault turbo in the family i suppose.

its gone to a very good home, and the bonus is that in may the new owner is moving litterally down the road from me, but untill then its in sudbury (12miles away)

i miss it already but its time to move on i suppose
