Hello from SE London!

tedo2 · 2nd March 2008, 23:50

Hi Everyone!

Have been using the site for a couple of weeks but picked up my NHB CTR on Saturday so thought the time was right to say hello. Have come from a Saab 9-3 Aero (so dull) and have had BMWs and Audis before but right now if someone offered me a new Porsche then I would think twice - am loving it! Have not been so excited about a new car since I had a Clio 182 a few years back. I am sure the rose-tinted outlook will wear off slightly over time but right now it feels like all the car I need!

Looking forward to getting a lot more out of this great site!

Cheers,

Ted

what part of the SE are you??

Foggy69 · 3rd March 2008, 17:28

Hi Ted, and welcome to Civinfo

We are always happy to suggest ways of getting you to part with some hard cash to make you Civic even better.

And the best, and cheapest, way to make you Civic even better is a Civinfo sticker

Buy CivInfo stickers and support the site

It gives us in the SE London, Kent, Surrey area a better chance of spotting a sticker

Welcome tedo2, the grinning doesn't stop!!

I originally come from SE London as well, but moved South years ago when my Dad's job moved. I lived in Welling (Bexley), near Falconwood station, but family originated in Lewisham and Deptford!

Wow, thanks everyone! Been away for the last week so missed the lots of friendly replies, I keep seeing Civics everywhere now! Lippy - Know Welling well as I have a friend who lives there. Uncler - saw a NHB Type R a few weeks ago on the A205 traffic lights at W Dulwich - maybe it was your good self!

The car is going great, never a dull moment and I never been so keen to get up and go to work!

Hi tedo2 and welcome.

I was born and bred in the Crystal Palace area. I spent much of my (misguided) youth frequenting the drinking establishments in and around the CP and Sydenham area. Ah! great days!!!

Enjoy the car and enjoy the site.
