Sadly I have to agree with this in some respects, You would be much better off in the future had you chosen a different career and learned about cars and fixing them on a hobby basis.

I understand your passion for cars and with that I'm sure it will make you a superb mechanic but sadly alot of people loose sight of their passion when they have to do it everday for a living.

Thats said , if your happy in your career then that means alot aswell , im sure most of us are not really happy or excited about our chosen careers.

Anyways , Well done Sarah ,and to Hayley too as it takes a strong person to work in a male orintated enviorment and even harder in a workshop

Cant be ass'd to read the above but totally agree - working with cars ruined it for me and I know of a few friends who are the same.

I dont anymore and love cars even more - that said, a girl in a greasey set of overalls.... yum yum.

I like to try and make a few local meets this year as that's something I haven't done before, also have my heart set on going to Ford fair next year as I missed out this year due to my car needing some cosmetic work to the drivers door and didn't fancy going in my XR3i, would of had a spot on the Fast Ford stand too

Lol, I would of but it's just not the same. I like the XR an all but once you've drove the RS it's very hard to get back into a car that is almost identical in every way but doesn't have the luxery of boost.

Do many of your frineds drive? What kind of car's are they into?

Utter fucking scum bags. Ignore them girl who's name I don't really know. They'd be licking your arse in real life. You know you're a spinless weirdo when you can't even say what you want in your own name, even behind a computer. I mean, who has to hide their identity behind a computer? They musn't never go over the fucking door. Go and masturbate over your Sister, the only girl you have probably ever spoken to you spinless cunts.

Welcome to PF and a happy new year.
