I could have settled for an Eg6 too... A nice sleek exterior of a 3 door... A MUCH cheaper alternative to the 3 door Ek4. However, I couldn't bring myself to accept it's crappy interior and it's date of registration... 1992...
I collected the car from her direct owner around Bukit Timah Road, Enrique. He was kind enough for me to take over her before the intended date of transfer. As long as I had my insurance papers with me.
After signing on the very last dotted line, he passed his keys over to me...
"Thanks Kerr Chuen, drive safe... Anything just give me a call..."
"Sure..."
My Car... She wasn't a beauty... She did not have the looks of her 3 door counterparts... She had a lousy paint job, as if she had been through years of torture... She was plain simple...
She was accessorized with a metallic blue cold air intake funnel, K&N drop in filter, sparco 3-spoke sports steering wheel and a supersprint exahust system...
I started her up and gave her a few gentle revs...
*vroooom... VRRoomm..*
Her heart was perfectly fine... I took her gently to the T-Junction and turned out to the main road and slided into the 3rd gear...
I waited for a chance, a clear road... I gently down shift to gear 2 and floored her accelerator to the floor board... Oh my!!! The force was exhilirating! In a short 2 seconds, I was beyond 8000 revs...
It was just the beginning... A project that awaits me... A project to rebuild her... From scratch...
