Hello from the UK!

Hey everyone, I'm Connor. Currently in a little Astra Twintop for insurance purposes (living in a city is awful!) - feels a bit slow on the start but I will admit having a convertible has been nice with the recent weather. I'm just about to start saving up to start a project in a couple of years once I've finished my PhD, so signed up here to lurk on boards and occasionally do some research.

Hi there, what's your passion?

Hey! I've recently posted about it in the Hyundai specific thread but my main interests are coupe's/hot-hatches from the 1990s/early 2000s. I love the plasticky interiors and lack of technology. If it has a cassette player it's good in my books!

When I was an undergrad I had to buy a £300 Hyundai Accent MVI from an auction house as an emergency replacement for my first car following an accident... It was initially a temporary replacement but I fell in love with it. I had to scrap it a while back due to costly MOT repairs. Was absolutely gutting so in the future I'm looking to purchase one as a bit of a rolling project and modify it for performance.

Thanks for the intro into your world, and very interesting to. I'm a Skodaphile these days although back in my youth I was a Mini man at heart but have run some crazy stuff over the years. My dream car is a Honda S800, I had one as my first car and loved it but a second has been out of my reach financially ever since.

Hi there and welcome to the site. There is a wealth of knowledge on here, and although you might not get many replies or much off topic banter the tips you get are worth their weight in gold and I would take quality over quantity any day.

I hope you stick around and add your voice to the unique community that only TorqueCars.
