Hello!

Post by mikeholl » Mon Jan 11, 2016 10:42 am

Hello everyone! First things first; I am64 years old, and therefore probably old enough to be the grandfather of a quite lot of you,although I deny any responsibility!! (I am just trying to recapture my lost youth!)
I have just 'retired' from a working lifetime of owning and running a business dedicated to restoring and race tuning classic aircooled Porsches,and have scarcely noticed any other make of car for the past thirty five years, until a young employee of mine bought a Type R civic. Cut a long story short, I now have a BB4 Prelude G4, which I LOVE!!!!! Lots of questions, lots of advice needed, plus sundry used bits and pieces, so I will be poking my nose In quite a bit! Bye for now...

Well, some of them, anyway.
Perhaps we could get together and form a Seniors sub-section.

I doubt you ever lost it.

You're not in Hampshire, by any chance?
