Hey guys.

I've just moved down to South Wales on a new job, looks like I'll be down here for a few months so I just thought I'd pop into this forum and say hello and see if you have any regular meets or runs out.

I've only been here a week, but I've found it to be one of the friendliest parts of the UK, currently living in a B&B but I'll hopefully moving to a little village called Wick this week. I'm looking forward to exploring all the famous 'Evo' roads!

Sorry for the late reply to you all, I only have the interweb in my office at the moment.

That was me, I was in Kazakhstan for a couple of years, I was offered a job here and decided to take it. Only problem is all my stuff is still over there!

Wick is about five minutes from Llandow, I was thinking about heading there this weekend and taking a look at the circuit, could be quite handy!

I'm now on the look out for somthing a bit daft, they are on the list.

biggrin

Cheers for all the hello's, I'm looking forward to having a run out down here. It looks like you all have a fine selection of cars, I'm really quite jealous! I love the Warsteiner M3 cloud9 and all the TVR's!

That's the problem, I don't know what I want to buy. Though I'd love a Griff 500 (I've already bought a chest wig), I also fancy a Lotus of some sort, or maybe some sort of 'M' car, or somthing Italian or....

Anyway, it's a bind, I could really do with a lottery win!

So, when is the next local hoon?

Hi Firefoot,

Typical that I miss a run out! I spent all of Sunday mooching too.

I look forward to seeing what the roads are like down here, so far I've driven to and from work and to Cardiff a couple of times.

Might have a bit of an 'explore' this weekend though...
