Once again my topic turns to shite, story of YUM'S life on Passionford
Over the last couple of years ive posted on this forum and im sure alot of people have enjoyed reading the topic, as l have enjoyed posting them.
But there is a small group of people for what ever reason make there so purpose in like to post stupid remarks about me or helen or YUM
Well that wont happen now as l no longer own YUM so looks like this small group will have to find something else in life, or might even get a life
This topic was just to post the last pictures of me owning YUM (THATS ALL)
Cheers

Dave,
I guess you feel its ok to take the piss but cant take it back !
If you expect me to standby and take your abuse and not return the favour or answer your comments then dont make them on a public forum.
It was not my intention to turn this thread to shit but you started the argument and I replied to it !!
Now pick up your toys and put them back in the pram.

FYI, that comment wasnt an insult to Helen as you seem to have taken by mistake.
(I appologise if thsi is the case).
The comment was to Billy who had changed his user name to YUM
Just seemed to me that he was just basking in YUMS glory.
It was just a banterous way of taking the piss out of him not you or Helen.
Chill out

Onwards and upwards fella, at least you used it when you could, now you can enjoy a bit of Jap reliability eh?
And at least its gone to someone who know the history and will look after such an Iconic Cossie

Thank you, tells a good story and shows the sort of life the car lead and how much work Dave put into it and it achieved times / speeds I can only dream of.
Thanks Pete 
You'd know on the Evo front having had a blinding one 
Thanks Dave, sorry I never posted them sooner and thanks again for the hospitality at your place at the time, I had a great day and was good meeting JB and Doug too
I've looked at the 22nd Feb Brands Triple Club trackday, looks a good bet. Will check on the time off status in work tomorrow. Funds are tight, but I'm dead keen to get the Evo back out on track, and open pit noisey day sounds good to me

Cracking pics
I'm really suprised you didnt run it for a bit longer once you had it finished Dave, thought you'd want to enjoy it for a year then maybe strip it. Seemed like you finished it then took it apart almost straight away haha. But everyone has their reasons I guess
Just wish I had all six numbers come up so I could have bought it LOL
Which Evo did/are you get/getting?

Sold my RS500 a few years back because of the constant comments from penniless
losers at shows and a well known forum.
Even caught some knob at a show lifting the vin tag flap to check which way up my vin was stamped.
Bought my car from a museum in 2004 from Holland, the car had done 22k from new and had not been driven since 1990, totally original and mint.
Bought an EVO and never looked back.
When my numbers come up im going to by it or one similar back and have it crushed on video and post it on said site.

ffs Simon. You have been back here for 2 weeks and already causing grief.
Was a shame to see the escort looking so sorry for itself. Wasnt as difficult to get onto the trailer as i thought. 4 blokes and 4 crates with wheels on is the answer
Glad i got a ride in it before it went to its new home. Good luck Billy. Look forward to seeing its return

Some pics from I think April 2009. Went to East London to pick up a new interior for my Evo, and called in at Dave and Helen's to see how the build for YUM was going.
Stood around for ages nattering and getting in the way while Doug (Mechanic28) and Dave hauled the engine into the car. Passed a few spanners round and drank loads of Helen's tea and bacon butties.
Then JB Fletch turned up and got covered in oil helping out. I got more and more oil on me, so landed up getting under the car and throwing a few spanners around too.
Landed up finishing the day with a lager shandy (driving
) and a decent BBQ feast care of Dave and Helen.
Took Helen for a run up the infamous Mad Mile too in the Evo, no huge speeds due to traffic, but no hanging about either.
Perfect weather, great day and great crowd of people to spend it with
Looking forward to sharing some quality track time with Dave and the new Evo soon

Did not realise how many pic's you took
Was a good day, was chuffed with all the help Dave got, and for you who was just stopping by to say Hello staying all day and getting your hands dirty!
Hope you can make Brands on 22nd

(I am on my second one)
In fact, I wished him well on his new car thread for all to see if you cared to look here (Post #58) https://passionford.com/forum/genera...r-today-2.html
You will get no argument from me that YUM and all the work done to it was good.
Please get your facts right and get off the internet bandwagon

Dave i think everyone will agree that YUM had to be one of the best ever Escorts of all time to be on the scene, just can't help looking at that shell and thinking Billy has got a big mountain to climb getting it back together again.....good luck Billy and i will look forward to seeing YUM in the future at shows it attends

Dave,
I guess you feel its ok to take the piss but cant take it back !
If you expect me to standby and take your abuse and not return the favour or answer your comments then dont make them on a public forum.
It was not my intention to turn this thread to shit but you started the argument and I replied to it !!
Now pick up your toys and put them back in the pram.
