About Me
Hi, I'm Jack and come from Pembrokeshire, Wales. I'm currently at Aberystwyth Uni, and work part-time back home. I'm interested in cars, motorsport (F1/WRC), technology, movies, music (mainly metal or 80s s**t) and politics.
I'm running about in a red Seat Arosa 1.4 16v Sport. I picked it up with about 92.1k on the clock, I've added about 700 to it so far. I originally had a problem with gear changes, mainly in 1st and 2nd - but I got the gear linkages re configured, and had the clutch cable replaced so now its absolutely fine. As its new and the weather not too cold yet, I've been giving it a wash with 'Triplewax - wash and wax' every week. I think its a great car, it sounds and goes much better than my last car - no more lagging behind any of my friends. The only problem is legroom, I'm 6ft3 and cope alright in the front, but realistically I can only hold 2 passengers with a small amount of luggage.
Previously to this I used to bomb about in an exotic number, known as the Peugeot 106 (you may have seen 1 or 2 about), I owned the much envied 1.1L Look+ model - its features included no power steering, no rev counter, no central locking and no electric windows, however I did have a sun roof! But seriously it was a fun little car, due to its basic feel / steering.
See ya
