since I bought the Mazda of course! :p

Hahaha well not actually, Friday the 10th was the official day, but seeing I have been sick, sleeping, not trying to constantly fall over (have vertigo atm) & at the coast for the last 3 days, I thought i'd do it up now seeing I am now home :D

Although the Cookie Monster has been a great car to me, its also been a total pain in the ass... but all in all I have enjoyed every minute. Some $12,000 in that time thrown at, be it repairing or modifying, but really more of the repairing :p I looked at the odometer this morning, and yep, I've done just over 84,000 in those 3 years, some 20,000 in a 7mth period going to & from toowoomba every weekend, and yet, never misses a beat.

Anyways here's some pics I found on the pc of what it looked liked the day I bought it:

Yes I know bourbs, its still STOCK looking, but thats the way I like it, and the popo dont look twice ;)

Future? Just keep it, get some CX7 rims and well, just cruise! Im going to my grass roots soon and will be purchasing another Gemini project, cant kick the habbit it seems :rolleyes:

Oh and seeing I have had the car for 3 years, I too have also been on here for 3 years... funny how you find things when you blow up stackers :p:p:p So Anyways I thank AGT for giving me the info & advice I have needed over those past 3 years, I've met quite a few friends from this site, and try not to miss an opportunity to go for a cruise:cool:

Cheers
Marc
