Hi everyone, I am now the proud owner of a black 63 plate 265 with the cup chassis, recaros and RS monitor. I am very impressed with the general performance and handling. My daily driver has been a tuned VX220 turbo that I am now planning to keep for the warm weather and track days! The weather has been terrible so no pictures yet. I will try and post something up as soon as possible. Any meets in the Essex area? It would be great to meet up with some like minded owners! Thanks Rich (Ric218)
You dont drive around chelmsford do you? Ive seen a black 265 here and there! welcome anyway, great cars! My friend has a vx220 which is a great car but worlds apart
Not me, only had it two days. There is one that turns my head occasionally on the way home, they really look superb on the road, one of the reasons I went for it in the end! Your right about them being different propositions, but equally exciting in their own right. I am really enjoying the best of both worlds situation that I have going on at the moment is your friend on the VX forum? If so, there is a a good chance I have met him. Thanks for the welcome! Rich
Hi Rich, not much happens club wise in Essex at the moment but the clubs relatively new and I'm sure once an area rep structure is in place we'll get some meets organised.
Welcome buddy. Where abouts in Essex are you? I'm Essex/Suffolk border but spend a lot of time in Southend area.
Do you ever go on the a120 coggeshall area? I often see a black 265 coming back from work. I have a white 250.
Arcticmonkey! Bloody hell how's he doing? Say hi from me please Matt ( sorry for the thread hijack and hello Rich welcome on-board)
Hi mate, welcome along. Get some pics up of the 265 and the VX. Would be interested in a comparison between the two.
Arcticmonkey, yes I remember. He has a supercharged red VX and was kind enough to take me out in it once for comparison purposes. A very nice guy. Xanda, great idea. I will definitely do that. I am away this weekend so hopefully some time next week. Once again, thanks for all the friendly welcomes!
Yep thats him. If you are ever about chelmo way drop me a message and stu will come out for a blast too!
