Hi all (another newbie)

[MikeDov]

I thought it was time I should join up with this place seeing as I have been skulking around on here for far too many years just reading the articles but never really looking at the forums until recently, I think I have been missing out, this section looks like it’s a giggle

Some of you may know me from the various Seat and detailing websites that are about but at least this place has a bit of variation of vehicles on it so worth looking at and from your recent tunnel runs will be worth showing my face at the next one (if that’s OK)

Oh, forgot to mention, I’m in Pontllanfraith, just next to the ‘Barry Boy’ heaven of Blackwood, and no, I’m not one of them

Cheers all and catch up with you soon, MikeD

I work at the same place as you mate, been there for around 12+ years now and keep seeing the 205 in the car park. I started there as a Mech and have now reached the wonderful (and most hated) position of a pre input planner for bay 1 in the back office as part of Franks group sat with ‘Hinge & Bracket’ otherwise known as ‘The Chuckle Brothers’

Hmm think I've seen your car about Da'wood

Only know of 2 silver Cupra R's and the 2nd is out in our works car park.

[MikeDov]

Do you work at GE? There was a lad who turned up at one of the local Cupra.net meets last year with one who worked there but have never seen him or it since so it could have sold I suppose. There aren’t many about in this colour, most are black, yellow or a dark grey

You must be doing well to spot my Leon as it doesn’t come out to play too often and with the weather being like it is right now I haven’t dragged it out of the garage since about two weeks before Christmas
