Oh looky! bin a member fer 4 years!

Post by Doggy »

Hell, doesn't time fly and all that ballcocks!

I can vaguely remember being a 406 noob, slightly embarassed at owning one of Satan's FAP-equipped 2.2 HDi's, back in the day when no-one knew how to deal with this sorcery. Everybody and his dog seemed to have petrol turbo's, welton had yet to morph into V*!v* welly, mjb had a v6 saloon, Captain Jack still had his remapped 2.1, Dai was just over half-way through his ownership of the HPI exec, Joel had been recently banished to the colonies........

........and people were winding puggy up over his poverty-spec GLX

Ah well, in an uncertain world, it's good to know there are some things you can still rely on. :twisted:
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

6 years here, although there was almost certainly a long lurking period before that... Doesn't seem that long somehow
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

I feel so new (1 year) :(

I'm hoping my 406 will keep going for a good few more years though :)

Happy 4th! Ah, I've been here since 2005! Never really paid attention to that. That's with a lot of lurking, a hiatus from 406 ownership with the ghastly Accord and a now, not so new, 406 again.
