Another Cheshire Newbie!

[Queen Smokey II]

Hi everyone!!

I'm Kitty (real name Steff but everyone calls me Kitty nowadays!) I'm 27 and live in Crewe, though I'm originally from Stoke. I also work in Winsford at a bodyshop

I've been the proud owner of my Mk2 Leon for just over a week now due to the unfortunate demise of my Mk2 Ibiza (RIP) known as 'Smokey' The Leon is now called 'Queen Smokey II' (I'm sad i know!)

Anyway, Looking forward to getting to know you lot

Kitty x

Welcome! I live in Sandbach

Which body shop is it? I know there is one on the way to Winsford from Middlewich called "Winsford Body Shop".

 

[Queen Smokey II]

Helloooo!!

I work at KC Autos, on the Industrial Estate just around the corner from there

Love the pic of your Leon. Funnily enough, I was after the exact same car as yours before I got my Leon. I was after a Crono Yellow one but the one I was really drawn to sold the day before I was due to look at it (In Nantwich) and I went to look at another one in Lichfield which was a right nail!

I then checked Autotrader again and found my QSII in Warrington so happy happy happy xx

KC is far better than 'Generic Body Shop'

Had my beeza recovered there after an unfortunate incident with a hedge and a fence, 3-4 years back

Ah never been down there, always drive through that junction though. Do they just do general stuff, or extra things like wrapping etc? Just handy to know that's all

 

[Mr_Dave]

KC are (or were) the kind of place you only use for insurance jobs, they cost £lol

Welcome

There expensive and took 4 times to knock a dint out and spray my bonnet but looks ok now after ranting never again. oh sorry welcome to the fold

 

[Queen Smokey II]

Mr Dave...... Was that a Black Ibiza we pulled out of a ditch for you??

And yeah, Insurance work only really, we do other stuff but its mainly insurance.

And Griffo.... unfortunately it depends on which tech you get working on your car. I will say though, When I get my Leon's paintwork done I'll be just as fussy as you probably were!

Grey! but that could quite well have been me - I ended up in a ditch after spending time on hedges on both sides of the road Heading back toward Middlewich by Stanthorne Hall

 

[Queen Smokey II]

Yep thats the one, Grey sorry. Thats our compound.
How did you get on with the insurance?

 

[Mr_Dave]

Haha, quite funny - been there a while then!? (nice memory btw)

Insurance wrote it off (glad to be honest, it needed a new side - would never have been the same!) - I was doing less miles and bought the Leon in my avatar pic. Still got that now but it rarely comes out because of the beamer

 

[Mr_Dave]

In fact - would you have had an Ibiza back then? I seem to recall speaking to someone about Ibizas when I was there haha

[taff141177]

Surprised I've never seen you about I used to live on park lane but had a saxo vtr then

 

[Mr_Dave]

Haha - it's possible you have - I've had a 206 XSi, then an Ibiza FR TDi, followed by the Leon, which I kept whilst I bought a mk5 Ibiza Cupra - now still got the Leon but hav a BM.

Have probably seen your car about tbh

 

[taff141177]

Yeah I come through sandbach everyday as I work in Holmes chapel and I've got friends in sandbach are you on any other forums ?

 

[jmc1976]

[Mr_Dave]

More than likely then - although it's not all that often I'm awake before around 9:30 - but do have a day or two a week in London so get the train from Crewe.
