Anyone know where my old car is?

[Markey Mark (BD)]

Just been looking through some old pics of my old 5's and was looking at my old blue 5 (ex AJ Tuning car), i'm just wondering if anyone knew of its where-abouts and/if its still alive.
The number plate is J197 MFD

Last i knew of it it was aorund the Windsor area but heard rumour its up in the Birmingham area locked in a garage.
Always have urge to buy it back and return it to its former glory when i first had it, in way wish i never fitted Polo headlights, painted it blue and left it yellow as i recon i would still have today. One of the straightest shells i've ever had/seen :crap:

Just an idea this is what it looked like when i had it for year or so.....

Yeah the purple car MSM built did have Polo headlights but not done quite right, different car all together mine was around the same time as that car.

Schwartz, it did 12.3@111mph back in 2005 with it

This was/ is a great car. One of my favorites ever in yellow guise, and still very, very cool when blue.

Good luck finding it Mark. :agree:

Last time i saw it mark it was on way to ace cafe, wasn't i with you? When i spotted it a few cars ahead?

The front mount on the red 5 would fill that gap nicely, always liked that pod pic. For the time I've known you when you had it i never went out in it, infact it didnt move! Till it sold :cartman:

Just noticed you actually improved on the roof when you changed the colour...more aero with no arial :agree:

Edit: and the red one now too:laugh:

no, that car is in a lockup down by becketts farm/mapole area.

the car on my drive is a different mates entirely, and unfortunately i fear it'll never reveal itself.

[markey b]

probably been CGB'd long ago by now :cry:

[GT Josh]

Haha.. I think it's amazing how many of these cars are either locked away or tragically broken. :(

Yep, a wrong that definitely needs to be made right there Mark :laugh:

[Markey Mark (BD)]

I'd be shocked if CGB got there hands on it and scrapped it but if they had i would of expected to see bits on ebay which i haven't. Last time i did a check with the DVLA is it was still registered so its somewhere (unless its gone since then)

Cheers for the coments TK, i remember you doing a write up for the club and asked to use my car for pics and that back in the good old days ;)

Rich, yeah you was with me when we last saw it at Acedidn't look to healthy back then did it :crap:

When my red 5 was in paint shop i was almost tempted to have it painted in that Yellow to replicate it but went against it, feel if i could ever get it back one day (funds permiting) i would turn it back into the car everyone knew before

[scratcher]

It looked cool when I saw it that time :agree:
