Allo Kids,

Well I can't believe it's already been 5 years since I got my XR6T and joined up on the forum. The lease on the XR has now expired so I've opted for a bit of an upgrade.

Did all the paperwork yesterday and I'm now the proud but nervous owner of a BF II F6 Typhoon.

Details: Ego, ZF Auto, std 19's, Leather and floormats.

Just got a few more sleepless nights until I go pick her up mid-week.

I think it'll be a sad day handing over the keys to the old XR. We've had our ups and downs, but today as I took her for one last sunday drive I think all was forgiven.

Catchya's round...

Adam

Sounds like you had a good run with the T and a five years you must be sad to see her go, a new phoon will certainly ease the pain though. :stupid:

How the hell did you manage to keep it stock for 5 years??? At least the phoon in stock form should give enough thrills....

hehe yeah I'm definately impressed it put up with me for as long as it did. and nah no chicken mesh in the phoon... definately going to be treating this one much better than the ol' XR.
