Heya!
« on: May 14, 2006, 12:17:06 pm »
Hey!

I'm Alexander Heigold, 19 years old from a town near Stuttgart, Germany. I'm finishing my apprenticeship to a IT-Specialist at the moment.

In June 2004 I bought myself a 1g Eclipse (D22) from a friend. Because the minimum age of getting a license in germany is 18, it's my first car.

I used to live in Surrey (near Vancouver) and in Westbank (near Kelowna). I moved to germany 11 years ago.

Well, here are a few pics of my DSM (no mods done yet - lack of cash):






>200000km and keeps on going, and going, and going...

Just wanted to say hi.... :) Maybe i'll stay at this board for a while.

Is that a turbo awd?.. I would imagine some slight mods and even at 200kph not too many Audis will be bothering you :P

yeah. but there are some freaks who imported turbo awd or turbo eclipse from NA... my next car will be a turbo fwd/awd ;)

the fastest the ol' lady went was 230km/h... kind of dangerous, because when a truck wants to pass another truck on the right lane, they sometimes don't blink and don't look in the mirror. oh well, it's fun ;)

i'd like to do some mods, like a different spoiler in the back, or even a slick bodykit, but first i have to finish my apprenticeship till i earn enough cash.
