Finally got one
Hi Guys
I posted about 18 months ago as I was about to buy a 75 or ZT and wanted some advice. However, the wife bottled it and bought a new Punto (why????). Anyway, to cut it short, today I finally bought my 1st 75. A 1999 2.0 v6 Con SE in silver with all the toys. Thought i would never get one. I pick it up next tuesday and hope to hang out here for a while. Cheers Paul ps. Anybody wanna buy a motorbike? Got to keep the missus happy. Last edited by alluslawless; 30th May 2009 at 03:18.. |

Welcome Paul,
Hope you have many good times with the motor, dont forget the checks when you get the car, Plenums are always the first thing to check. If you need any advice you know where to ask

A warm welcome to you Paul:lol:
Your car sounds very similar age/spec to mine, bar the colour. Great choice on your 1st 75, the options list on the Con SE is unparalleled, never fails to impress any virgin passengers I waft around. All The Best & look forward to seeing pics of your new stately motor.

Hi Paul and welcome. Glad you have finally got the car you wanted.
This is a great site, very friendly and full of knowledgable people (I'm not one of them). The meets/shows are great fun and well worth attending. Please post pictures ASAP. All the best, John.
