Title: Hello folks, newbie about.
Post by monghad on Apr 9^th, 2006, 7:44pm

Just to say hello as a newbie, owner of a 2.0 16v ultima '1995 M' in Tourmallard Green, smitten since first seeing one in my street back in '95', must be an addict after spending an arm and a leg to get it through it's M.O.T last week :o
Keep up the good fight one and all.

Got mine for what I thought was a bargain at £700 5 months ago. Since then spent over £750 but near perfect running order for may years to come. Only another £300 to go. Smitten, I think so! Welcome to a site full of other very smitten folk :) :) :) Have fun ;D

Yup, she needed a battery today, came out of Halfords and went for some shopping at the local supermarket, returned to find my windscreen damaged :-/, one of those accidents that happen in a busy carpark but nobody sees....... :)
