icarus_m1 Posted 19, January 2007 Report Share Posted 19, January 2007 Greetings all, I've been lurking here for a good 2 years or so. I didn't have a Clio so there really wasn't anything to post. The new forced registration forced me out into the open It has ended up happening just in time too. My faithful 1986 Nissan Pintara breathed its last a few days ago (stop laughing you lot) and so the time to acquire a Clio is finally arrived. Test drove my very first one on Tuesday (was a very nice 182 Cup and I couldn't stop grinning even while driving a different car back home.) In the midst of negotiations at the moment so should (fingers crossed) have one by next week. Pics to follow soon after. Hope to meet a few (or more) of you on a drive day or something. Cheers, Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icarus_m1 Posted 19, January 2007 Author Report Share Posted 19, January 2007 Yes, that's the one. I was pretty surprised at the price too, I kept asking him if it was a demo model or if there was something wrong with it. It seems like a really nice car. And yes my face did start to hurt eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dish Posted 24, January 2007 Report Share Posted 24, January 2007 Hi there & welcome Icarus Did you get your orange 182 from a guy named Terry? I am still kicking myself at having missed that one... There's another in Melbourne but I forget his handle... nice guy named Trevor, but haven't seen him online for a bit. Cheers, Dish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFK Posted 24, January 2007 Report Share Posted 24, January 2007 yes, a warm orange greeting to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icarus_m1 Posted 24, January 2007 Author Report Share Posted 24, January 2007 Yes, I did get the car from Terry. Really nice guy and real car enthusiast too, he had a dodge viper gts at one point. He showed me pictures it. very very nice. 3 oranges is a good number. I know someone in Sydney who has a red mazda 3 mps, he got together with 2 others with identical cars and the pictures were really nice, they took a few at the olympics' site which came out really well. something similar would be sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
