Hi all
After recently joining this community I just wanted to share how I am feeling tonight regards owning the RS, as I have gone through every emotion possible in 2 and a half weeks.
Dreams
After owning the ST many years ago and having to give it back as a company car which was replaced by a respectable audi A5, I needed to get back to the thrill of a bit of grunt under the bonnett, not from a boy racers percpective but from a - if I need the extra speed and to here the lovely sound of the engine.
Therefore over the last four years I have saved up to buy a great RS formerly owned by JonnyBoy.
Anticipation
After viewing the car and paying the deposit I had to wait one week before pick up. This one week was a killer, minutes seemed like hours and days seemed like weeks along with a feeling 'this can;t be happening in that my dream becoming a reality.
Joy
The week had passed, and pulled up to see 'BEE' (yes I have named the car) lol, sat there gleaming and saying I'm all yours lol.
Thankful
I wrote to JonnyBoy to say thank you for building and looking after the car before I was to post on the forum how happy I am, but have been busy so this is my first oppertunity to write anything meaningful (to me anyway :smile: )
Nervous
Never owned such a powerful and customised car I have been very concerened with (what if I scratch it, what if I curb it, what if I break it) other drivers seem to want to pull out in front of me or race me grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Also what if soemthing goes wrong I have not one inkling about mechanics.
Sadness, Fear, Anger.
For all the threads I am reading for peoples pride and joy being vandelised or stolen, the worry of what I need to do to protect mine, and why oh why the :f: law don;t take this seriosly.
To sum up
I've got to be careful of paranoia, when I look at and drive the car I go from a 51 year old to a 6 year old on christmas eve my wife doesn't understand lol.
I have taken some security measures and am seriosly looking at another two options all through reading variuos threads on this great forum.
I'm very concious of whom may be reading these threads to allow me to talk through various aspects freely without giving away my location or what I am having done, so as a heads up I may private message one or two of you in the near future, and or alternatively via one of your meets.
Reason for writing is to share how I feel, which should be totally exstatic but is tranished by the waste of space scum on this planet, I know it is only a car at the end of the day but if the worst happened I amy not be able to afford the insurance thus destroying where I started my dream.
Thank you for listening.
