Then the other day we were all having a good old chat as familys do lol it had also come home to me that the h35 is due back from the paintshop in 4 weeks , now me mums always said to me that theres something about the tech 1 she really likes , she even dont mind if ive thrown it sideways when shes been in there sais its cool lol but then she is a bit of a speed demon , shes had series 2 Rs turbos etc lol now currently drives a 1.2 corsa sxi though lol.
anyway to cut along story short i was thinking of selling the sport reason being h35s due home and i didnt want to put the sport away all summer and get her out just for winter, me mum said out of the blue ok if your gonna sell it i want it" well that was it ok mum your on i said so im now in the middle of just a few finishing touches me mums having it booked straight into the bodyshop and having the rear arches both done needs 1 but best to get both , also having the whole kit sprayed and a full mop! ive had some serious fun with the car myself and im really pleased my mums going to have it with wat ive done and the time my dad and i will spend on the car it will be here for along time to come!!! now me being me thought id share that with you i think its a real good thing.....cant wait to see me mum out in it to be honest, now for wat ive done.
