the passion
Hi everyone my name is Ricky from johannesburg south africa I just wanted to say a few things I see sometimes that people post saying that they selling the roadster because they want a faster car or they buying another car and they need the space I'm sorry but what the hell happened to the passion of this car why would someone by the book build it put so much effort into it to end up selling it yes I do understand you need the space or maybe your health not so great ya mine to but still park it somewhere or something why waste so much time and money to get rid of it in the end I believe that you should do something cause its a passion or you take a great interest in building a car from bit and pieces of metal and being proud of what you done and showing it to people what you have built from scratch. You know when I saw this book it made so excited that you can make your own locost and I felt this was a opportunity of a life time now my ultimate passion is cars and I'm a huge vw fan really do love the vw scene in the uk I buy here in sa the performance vw and the vw golf+ magazine from the uk because its my passion and this locost is a huge step into doing what you enjoy so I don't understand why would someone build the locost to sell it eventually yes there could be good reasons but this is my opinion and everyone has there choices

You have to look beyond what is written too understand why.
|
the passion
I understand what you mean but I don't agree with some reasons
|
the passion
I'm not here to be rude to anyone everyone has there reasons and choices some of which I don't agree to but that's just my opinion
|
Thats life Ricky,its called choice and you must make your own if you see fit to do so.
How is your build going ? |
the passion
Yes you right its life.
Its going slow getting things slowly but will get there eventually and with all the help from all the good people on this forum |
Maybe some people (me for example) have tremendous passion about building but are less excited about driving it? I can't drive it to or from work as I need a boot. There are sleeping policemen (bumps in the road) everywhere making many routes impassable. I have enjoyed 99 per cent of the build, that's where my interest kind of ends. My Wife says it's because I'm an old git:D

As far as I understand is that in the uk there are track days were you can take any car even your jag or whatever car it may be and drive around the track for the fun of it now this is a option but its up to you or any other person that wants to do it or not and I'm sorry but age means nothing its just a number as you get older does not mean you can't do things you used to cause you can but like I said its up to your decision and I forgot to say for those track days you don't need a racing license
|
Be an old git if you want but enjoy your new wheels ;)
|
I like being an old git:D
Track days are well expensive and hard going on a road car. I can't imagine for 1 second being tempted to take my beautiful Jaguar on a track. Especially not when tyres are £1000 a set:eek: Each go your own way and I'll go mine, best of luck with what you find, but for your own sake remember times we used to know. wise words from Ian Anderson. |
