New UK Member: Maritime C2 Coupe
Hi everyone; I joined the site a few months ago and have learned a lot already. I've now purchased my car from a friend and am starting my ownership journey.
Its a 1993 "K" N-VIN C2 Coupe. Originally Cobalt Blue, it was declared a Cat D write-off in 2001 when it was vandalised after a minor prang. It was then an unfinished project for many years until it was refreshed in RS style by Adrian Crawford and painted in Maritime Blue.
I have bought it from a friend who has a few cars and found this to be surplus, having owned it for almost a year. It did feature in the "cars for sale" thread close to its inception. It's done 88k and the engine seems strong, dry and with a good leakdown result.
I did manage to meet a few of you last weekend at the Row Barge meet. I look forward to becoming involved.
It's off to the bodyshop for a tidy-up, and then to http://www.nineexcellence.com in Horley for some snagging and a Heigo roll cage. I hope to do some track days.
Some pics from when it was offered for sale last year; I don't have any decent ones of my own yet.

Lovely car you have there, congrats.
