    teamSPB checking in!!

    Hey guys and girls! Thought I would pop by and say hello!

    Recently acquired a 2001 1.2 Punto as a run about car...only done 51k on the clock and is a decent little run about car!

    Completely standard at the moment, not too sure if I will do anything to it to be honest as its lovely to drive as it is! To be honest, its just SO nice to jump in a vehicle and just drive it and not worry about speedbumps or someone attempting to nick the car etc!

    The only bits that are actually done to the car are a pair of Kenwood 6x9's and a Kenwood headunit...oh and my lovely supply of California Scents air freshner!

    The previous owner neglected the car for around 2-3 years so hadnt been washed in all that time! So initial plans are to give it a PROPER clean and detail when I have the time and just make sure everything runs ok.

    About myself - im an audio fanatic and love my fast cars...that literally sums me up to a 't' LOL!

    Cars I have owned;

    VW Scirocco mk2 (was the lowest Scirocco at the time in the UK and WELL known here and in europe and even massive in the states!)
    Escort RS Turbo S2 (known through the UK again due to the engine I was building for it which made 520hp and 420ftibs torque)
    Ford Focus RS mk1 (I still have this, and is my fast car at the moment, running around 320hp at the moment at tiny boost, unmapped and unsetup!)
    Toyota Previa (Still have this, a nice sound system, and nicely kitted out in general...one of the most attention attracting vehicles I have ever owned lol!)

    Thats it about me really!

    Hope to pick up some good tips and possibly some bargains here!
