Title: Hi from a new member..
Post by nitram on Mar 17^th, 2005, 10:50pm

Hi guys,

I purchased a '96 Scorpio Ultima 2.0 16v about a month ago, and I just wanted to say what a great website you have going on here, and I look forward to contributing, and more likely, getting(!) advice. I have already made use of the buyers' guide, the information on the radio setups and the tip-off of the scorpios at the scrappers in Bury!

I'm in the Manchester area (Near the Trafford Centre) and I head up the M602 to Salford every morning, so give us a wave if you see me!

Here's to many years of happy Scorpio ownership!

Cheers
Martin 8)

Allow me to be the first to say 'welcome'.

I'm sure you won't regret buying the Scorp!

(I've had one since '97 and I like 'em so much I've just bought another.)

Enjoy...

Also meant to say - I've already had to replace the nearside headlight due to some idiot in B&Q car park deciding to use my car as a guide out of his parking space! ::)

Welcome Gentlemen,

Theyre not a bad bunch here, on the whole, just give a couple of slaps out if they act themselves.

Great cars, great site and a great forum.
