    greetings from a newbie

    hello everyone

    right so i'm not entirely new to this whole forum lark but i am a new MiG user... i can mostly be found on AOC however i thought i'd take a look on here as well...

    i live in Dereham (Norfolk) and hopefully there'll be sum people on here who r local to me, like to play with a spanner (steady ) and are willing/able to help me out with the stuff i can't do... in return, i'm a dab hand with a kettle and a tray of biscuits, and occasionally have been known to dabble in a little ICE...

    this week (i get bored easily), the car found mostly parked on my driveway is a 1999 Astra Estate, 2.0Di (X20DTL)...

    anyhoo thanks 4 listenin 2 me rabbling on introducing myself.

    Pete

    TBH matey you are Norfolk so we dont really venture up there. Closest we go is Ipswich. Every month we have meets... No fixed date or Location we move them around to 'fit in'

    thats scandalous... tbh tho i am the AOC Dereham Chapter, there's plenty of astras (and vauxhalls in general) about, but no-one seems to be on AOC and i havent found anyone on here yet either...

    correct me if i'm wrong people, if there's anybody from norfolk get in touch either on here or pm me!

    How do you not know about that?

    V8, RWD Astra Coupe.


    Oh, and welcome to you pete. I'm not technically in the eastern region - but i make the journey (about an hour, depending on traffic) coz the Eastern guys are worth it.
