Very nice Kelvin. Leaving back for KL tomorrow but may have to spend a fair bit of time in Jakarta too this time.

Blimey !!!

Those things are meant to be an absolute hoot to drive !!

Now, I wonder if I could squeeze it into my suitcase for the journey home...

I had an offer on wife's 944 the other day, 60,000Rm cash, which was 20,000 more than I paid, and the wife turned it down cause she likes the car on a Sunday, wish I'd took it now could but this.

Arranged to see the Carlton on Wednesday,

[Nick M]

Cool ! Hope it's as good as the advert suggests it is - I know there are some parts which simply aren't available any more, but if it's been well maintained that shouldn't be an issue.

I have a email into lotus malaysia to ask some questions, they actually support he old cars real good, they helped me sell all y Esprit engine bits to a guy with an S3. @.30 wednesday at the dealers if you want a look

[Nick M]

If I'm free I'll give you a call. Got someone looking at the BMW in the morning so depends how long that takes.

[anonymous-user]

Is the 323 for sale? you shoud sell it to will or jeff on here theya re looking for a good basis for arace car, yours would be great, it has the 5 speed right?

[Nick M]

Yep - haven't had to advertise it - the guy sorting out our move back to the UK is interested.

And yes, has the 5 speed box, but just a 'cooking' one, not the nice close ratio box with the dog-leg first.


Which reminds me - I came across that E21 steering wheel you let me try ages - must get that back to you at some stage !!

[anonymous-user]

When U go back? The wheel is that the alpine one?

[Nick M]

It's the 3 spoke BMW one, from an E21 I think - spline pattern is different to the E30.

Don't think it's an Alpine one, but it's the one with the big centre horn button.

[anonymous-user]

Yen its the E24 alpine needs a new alpine badge

[istoo]
