Hello
Hi,
My name is Tolgahan (Toby for those who cant say Tolgahan)
I'm 23 years old dude, just completed the first year of Motorsport engineering at UWTSD Swansea. I love this course.
I have 2 part time jobs soon to be 3.
My car list:
1st - 106 gti
2nd - 206 1.4
3rd - Ford Scorpio 2.3 < Me, mam and dad traveled from Cardiff to Istanbul and back in this with no issues and 120 mph on the autobahn for hours while fully loaded with stuff. highly underestimated car.
4th - Rover 25 2.0D
5th - Toyota supra 3.0 TT < Regretting I sold this
6th current - Jaguar XK8 Convertible 4.0
The Jag has full service history and has been garaged all its life when not in use. 72K miles. 2 previous owners.
My plans for the jag is to make it a GT car capable of being able to hold its own when I travel all over Europe next summer.
Take back seats out, fit extended range fuel tank, tools and service parts compartments and i'm looking into building a boot rack (roof rack for the boot, as its a convertible) to carry a spare wheel, but i'm sure that will have its own complications.
Thanks.
