Project Penguin - Van Project Planning Stage

[Crazy_C]

Well I'm going to be doing a new project vehicle - Project Penguin!! Why call it Project Penguin? Cos it will be a lot of work, and I will probably get pissed off at it many times, but there is a wonderful quote in the Millenium Gallery in Sheffield:
"One cannot be angry when one looks at a penguin."

So if I ever get pissed off with it, I just remember it's a penguin and I'll smile again :D Oh, and try that - if you're ever in a bad mood, think about a penguin and you'll be smiling :D


Soooooooo, this is Project Penguin - not bought anything yet, but will probably look at doing so soon :) 1.3CDTI easytronic (fancy word for automatic) Vauxhall Combo :)

Should be an interesting project. Changed your mind from the Grand Voyager now?

[Ang]

I can't keep up with you Crazy C. LOL. ;) Oh and just realised that that just sounded like my driving, even more LOL ;);)

How's the selling going?

[Crazy_C]

Decided against Grand Voyager because the cost of buying one, insuring it and running it will be too much to actually afford sound systems :)

Going to have a look at a Combo at a main dealers on Tuesday and then talk to them and see what deals can be sorted out.


And as for the selling, that's going pretty damn bad at the moment - had zero interest :( AND I can't do a scrappage deal either because my car's an import, so may see what they can do on part ex, or I'll whack her up on eBay.

[Ang]

So sad that she was damaged in the first place, you must be gutted. Good luck with the van. Definitly be quite handy.

Yeah, the keyings were a real bugger, but to be honest, with the leg taking as long as it is to recover, I do need an auto, and this is a project I did plan to do about 2 years ago, but plans changed (as they so often do) so now I at least get to do this :D

Completely insane ICE installation, and will give a good name to small vans for the modified scene as they are totally underrated I feel.
