How did you choose your user name?

Post by mycar »

In the spirit of getting to know everyone better...

I`ll go first. :) When I first met the assembled masses of DDk and introduced myself , the general reaction was " Oh good, just what we need, another Mike. :lol:

My surname begins with R, so among all the other Mikes I`m Mike R.... Mycar... geddit.

Course it`s not my car at all, no, no, no, because it`s Hayleys car as well.

`Course it is. :wink:

Your go.

Mike.

My dog is called Bootsy after Bootsy Collins, space bass funkateer supreme. I have adopted my dogs name on various forums and it happens to be phonetically the same as 'Butzi' as in Porsche!

my username is a carry over from my VW days , think I 1st started using 'hot66' back in 1998 on the old Machine7 & JMR boards..... anyway, I was heavilly influenced by hotvw's back then & I was building my very modified 1966 VW Beetle cabrio ...... & thus hot66 was born :)

Hi all
I've owned (loved) a few old alfas and done my level best to kill myself in some insane caterhams. That kind of makes me an alfa cat (man)!

Obvious really

All the best

From a long standing fascination with the humble Hillman Imp. Great little cars with the engine in the right place too :)
