Hello everyone, I'm mattmera's little brother, been driving for 2 years now, My first car was a 54 plate fiesta, then i got a 51 plate zetec-s and now i'm on my latest car an ej9 sorry:O. As you all know my bro has got a sweet gti and i love it, he has persuaded me to get one. A gti is just out my reach as i am only an apprentice mechanic for ford so i am looking for a 3dr sri but they seem to be rare as rocking horse shite :lol: (or maybe i'm fussy)

So i'm not quite an owner yet but i hope to be one soon.

Thanks Stoph!!
 
welcome mate, met you when you had your fiesta a while back. good to see you have found the light!

SRi's as a whole are fairly rare, maybe look at a Si as well?
 
I had the same issues. I then bought a 5 door one because I couldn't find a 3 door. Whilst very practical and useful, I do regret not holding out. Don't just get a car just because it's the only one there mate.

Oh. The SRi will also be slower than your old zetec S.
 
Welcome Chris!!! He's finally converted you then lol! Rooooadtrip :D Btw when you getting that wee cruise rescheduled for? :)
 
Hello, thanks for the reply's
@rajackson, yea i remember, you were getting parts from my brother.

@edk, just had a look at that, going to email him for more info.

@nnissan, yea learnt that mistake with my zetec-s lol went well but had a few underlying problems lol.

@chris, lol how about we make it a 'mera' once i get mine.

@hally, not to fussed bout ph1 or 2 because my brother said that ph2 stuff is easyily changed over,

Cheers Bro lol

Thanks Stoph
 
I had a look at damo_sri old car but i think i will leave it as i don't really want any hassle. I have looked at damo's old posts and know that he looked after it but it has been 2 years since his ownership and with the rebuild and smoke coming out i am not really in any position to be spending loads of money fixing a car as i need a car everyday because i live 25 miles from work with no buses.
 
rednemesisdog is in Halifax :)

I really dont have the spare time this week, at work all day and then off to Scarborough at the weekend. sorry!
 
Thanks for the welcome everyone, this is way better than any ford or honda forum to be honest lol. Had a look at that one on autotrader, thinking about it but i dont know lol, just going to wait a wee bit longer just to see what's out there as its just a wee bit high on the mileage side.
 
A gti is just out my reach as i am only an apprentice mechanic for ford

i have a gti and out of a job at the moment but hopefully getting my apprenticeship back at honda in the coming months all though it wont be on the road till i get my job back
