Haven’t been here for a while!

Postby lowmiata » Wed Jul 05, 2023 7:32 pm

Haven’t been here for a while, my nephew has just bought himself a crystal blue nb8b and I was telling him how we used to chat on a forum before the days of Facebook, so I started googling and we’ll you’re all still here, lol!

Odd question does anyone know what became of my car? I was aware that it was backed into the wall at lakeside, did it get rebuild or was it the end for it?

Or are the parts of it on other peoples cars now?

Regards,
Ryan.

... and good to see you back!

It's a bit quieter these days, the bookface has had its impact, but we are still motoring with that big grin!

Can't help you with your question though, maybe Maniaclachy or Lokiel can help out, they still turn up every so often :wink:

Love that colour! 8)

I had a blue turbo NA, all the usual stuff that was big in the early 2000’s

Miss it like nothing else, wish I never sold it

I can’t even think of where a photo would be on the internet these days to even link to, nor can I remember how to link them anyway!

Tell your nephew that a Crystal Blue assures his status as a man of taste and discernment.

It's funny isn't it... I've recently come back because my 17 year old son just bought an NB8C, a couple of months ago. It's been 20 years since I joined here and boom, back again - and you're all still here!
