The Silver Coupe has departed for pastures new

As subject.

I no longer own a Rover coupe

But I DO own a Rover 620 Ti

Good boy

Welcome to the Ti club

What prompted the change from Coupe to Ti?

Craig · Post by **Craig** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 9:06 pm

Well done. I do like the Ti. Despite now having a Vitty ...

Why Paul?

Why oh why oh why?

Raistlin · Post by **Raistlin** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 10:29 pm

So

Anybody for a 300+ bhp Ti???

NOT

I don't want to play those games anymore

Why oh why oh why?

Had a very nasty experience with threats to my wife by somebody who shall remain nameless over the coupe

Left a bad taste in my mouth as it were

So coupe has gone to somebody who can enjoy it and make it even more powerful

And My wife can forget the *sniff* I love u! who caused her sleepless nights of worry

But I won't forget

They're coming to get you............................ :twisted:

Threats over a car?

Well, here's someone that'll lend a steel toecapped foot if you need it

Threats over a car?

Made me laugh as well

But threats to wife are well out of order

Gary · Post by **Gary** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 10:41 pm

I am sure you'll enjoy as much as i have mate

Thanks Dave - but what i have in mind is non violent, legal, and infinitely more satisfying

Sorry can't agree Paul there is nothing more satisfying than give out a dam good kicking

Sounds like we have a plan. The Dave Wrecking Kru go in, bust the place up, smash the furniture, and generally maim the b*stards (and turn on all the taps and block the toilet), then Paul comes in and gets all nasty

Seriiously, hope it all gets sorted

Raistlin · Post by **Raistlin** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 11:02 pm

LMAO

Thanks guys

But anyway

Love my Ti - it's big, and comfortable, and easy to get along with (just like me really

)

Seriously though, TiRich and Gary have both looked after it well and it shows.

She's a beaut - thanks Gary

Bjorn · Post by **Bjorn** » Sat Oct 30, 2004 11:41 pm

really sorry to hear that Paul - at least you've stayed with the Rover game, I think 'that' problem which has been threatening your good wife needs sorting once and for all!! :evil:

Threats towards a woman, how low!!

Unless the thing responsible I've naturally thinking about isn't the same.

Raistlin · Post by **Raistlin** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:08 am

Twas one threat only Bjorn, and be assured - retribution is coming.

Would rather forget the bad side of things though

Dead chuffed with my Ti and wish Gary all the best as he takes the coupe to even more power

Steve220 · Post by **Steve220** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 12:37 am

Paul told me this a while ago about his proposal, as a massive fan of his car i didn't want it to go, but as a mate, i think you've made a good decision Paul, and i hope we can still have our car tatting evenings.
Hope you enjoy it mate.
Steve

turboestate · Post by **turboestate** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 4:05 am

yet ANOTHER ti owner

we got to be winning now?

You still the chief mechanic and bikky eater mate

Craig · Post by **Craig** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 9:36 am

Paul,

How would you say the Ti compares, handling-wise?

Raistlin · Post by **Raistlin** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 10:45 am

Haven't tested the handling of the Ti yet mate

I want to get used to it first.

After driving the coupe it's like being in a ship

I'll get used to it though

You should try driving an 827 Sterling.

MGJohn · Post by **MGJohn** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 11:44 am

Sound tactics to allow more time to get used to it - will seem quite small and nippy in time ...

With any 'new' car, take your time to get to really know it will pay off well in the longer run....

Nice one mate - welcome aboard.

daz500 · Post by **daz500** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 4:35 pm

It's a shame to see the coupe go after getting all that work done. We all know someone that sells uprated intercoolers and cold air boxes for the ti though :wink:

Gary · Post by **Gary** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 5:28 pm

i dont think Rich needs two Daz :wink:

Sooner or later i will realise the mistake in going diesel :oops:

and have her back again....maybe, just maybe.........

The more immoral and immature the recipient the more worthwhile it'll be. Presumably the winner has their costs paid for and that could financially sink the toad in question for years to come. You've got my suport anyhow.

Oh man! No way! After all that work.

mkandy · Post by **mkandy** » Fri Nov 05, 2004 8:48 am

Madness!!!

Totally understand and respect your decision mate, and hope you get the other stuff sorted, but, you sure its not because your getting old as well though, since when has big and comfy mattered? Or am i just a young whipper snapper who doesnt know any better!!

Oh my god im 23 next week :cry:

Better start looking for a Ti myself....
