Hello all!

First up , I apologise for the cheesy stereotype greeting from here in Sydney, Australia(not Nova Scotia!)

My name is Andrew Curling and I am the very satisfied driver of a 97 model Hyundai Lantra sedan, Cape Blue, tinted windows, upgraded stereo(speakers and iPod), Bridgestone Potenzas and an aftermarket suspension package from a fairly cluey mob called Pedders. No mags as these are targets for thieves and the steelies do the job fine. Just on that, to have any street cred the mags must be oversize with an appropriate increase in weight, so the original purpose of using alloys(reducing unsprung weight) seems to have got lost in the aesthetics. (steps off soapbox...)

The engine is stock but regularly serviced and all belts and things renewed when required. Running on 98 ron (petrol) as often as practical to get the best from the mill. Goes hard when required and actually steers round corners very well. I think the vehicle itself is highly under rated, usually by over rated drivers (I've met many WRX owners, few WRX drivers...)

My philosophy is to make as little impression in passing as possible particularly where the constabulary are concerned.

Anyway, enough from me.

Looking forward to hellos.
