A Whole change of plan
« on: June 14, 2009, 09:20:07 PM »

Well due to changing home circumstances my car situation is having a complete turn around,we have gone for a house in Northampton,well a small village just outside and as a result i have had to think long and hard about justifying 4 cars,i cant do it so heres whats happening.......i'm buying a 3 series beemer about a 2000-2001 model,the mrs is having a Zafira 7 seater,my cav is being broken for spares and all my modding attention is going into the van to make it one truly awesome machine,the redtop is going in the van along with the push button start system and dash mounted rev counter,the shortened front shocks are going on the van then everything else on the cav witch wont be much will be sold before the shell gets scrapped,the cav sri i just brought is being broken for spares too which includes a mint sri interior,mint un-cracked black dash,full s/s magnex exhaust system,the engine is knackered so will strip all ancilleries off it and the pre-facelift lights etc then that'll be scrapped too.
Will keep you all updated as events happen but watch this space for one mean rapid van in the making  :good:

its a big House in a tiny village,rear garden is 80ft x 50ft so plenty of room for a huge garage,we might not get it yet but we are now looking to move,we hav'nt got a set area to move to and would be nice to stay local but we need a bigger house with room to build a double garage,might take a year or so until we find something,we will know next weekend about the one in northampton which is only a 2.45 hour drive away....hence the Zafira so we can come down and visit on a very regular basis

Just because Chris may be moving, there's no need for you to turn your back on the rest of the Planet Thanet members Darrell. :sarcastic:
