    Hi from England

    Hi guys

    Just bought a Sport, so joining up on a few forums:) TGC looks like a good place to stick around..

    I bought my first Galant a few years ago, a '98 g8 V6-24 finished in dark green. I'd always fancied one when I saw this Galant in the Autorader was only in Cornwall - so not too far to go. It was bought the next day!

    Here is a quick pic of my OLD CAR....



    Ever since selling it I've regretted it, even though what I really wanted was the "Sport" version, or indeed the "VR4" :pimp2:

    Just before Christmas I happen to notice a rather nice Galant Sport for sale locally, in Torquay (South Devon) so I went to have a looksie. A deal was done shortly afterwards & I picked her up on the 2nd January:happy:

    In brief;

    Galant Sport
    2.5 V6-24

    Registered September 2000 / X-Plate

    106,000 Miles
    Full MSH upto 80k then private garage thereafter
    2 Previous Owners
    Only done 25k in the last 6 years

    I've got to say that I really enjoy being the behind the wheel. The fact that it's a rare sight on British roads is a huge bonus!

    Here are some pics I've taken in the few days I've owned her....

















    Maybe a VR-4 will be next.... hope so! But for now I'm going to enjoy this one.

    Cheers!

    Welcome, great car, great pics. I must say we get ripped off in the states.
    Respect the woman’s car, and she’ll respect you.

    WTF!!! If those are stock rims then even USDM cars are getting screwed over in that department also.

    Nice pictures!
