R.I.P LAYNE COOPER (oldskoldubs)

Just a quick message for the people that knew Layne cooper, Forum user: OLDSKOLDUBS.

As some of you already know, Layne is no longer with us. Sadly he took his life, and was found Dead in his garage last Sunday morning after inhaling exhaust fumes.

Layne was a top bloke, always willing to lend a hand and never wanted anything in retune. He will be sadly miss by all.

For the people that didn’t know his hears a pick of his car



his mk2



and his mk1

Really sad to hear this. ment him once or twice i think at the bury meets, seemed a nice bloke.

What a horrible way to go. You don't get many people lend a hand for the love of it anymore. RIP

didnt know him but sad way to go RIP

Sad news to hear about someone even if i did not know him i rember his mk2 on the white 928s R.I.P

very sad. I only think i met him once but certainly remember his cars - If I remember correctly we gave his mk2 the HIC sponsers choice trophy at E38 a few years back.

RIP

Fuck sake, very sad to hear this

Met and had a few chats with him at some meets and shows. Very nice guy. His mk1 golf was funny as it was only a 1.1 but he fitted twin 40's for a joke!.


Gutted

R.I.P mate u will be missed was looking forward to our catch up beer at crimbo

i worked with layne for about a year Valeting at vw in bury, he got layed off and then it was down hill for him from then on really! Really going to miss him, nothing was ever to much trouble for him! we are going to make a facebook Group page in his memory, will post the link up when its all done.

I cant believe it, was i top lad had few chats with him at some shows/meets, Both his golfs are posh as flip imo, hopefully they will be looked after.

Never met the guy personally but it's a shame to hear about anyone going like this.

Hi

i hope you haven’t taken my post the wrong way, i posted it after layne had passed on as some of the members on fendubbers knew layne, as he use to regualy attend the summer Cambridge meet. fendubbers is how i got to know layne and a few moths later ended up working with him at bury Audi, and then at northgate vw valeting.

the only forum post i have made about layne and his car is this one, and at no point in this post have I tried to take any credit, or said the car was mine ect.... I very rarely go on dubgen so I never saw the post the someone had made trying make it look as if the car was his, if I had seen it I would have had something to say.

sorry i cant help anymore than that, i have sent you pm with a bit extra in.

Regards

just checked through some of my old facebook messages, it was a chap from stow claiming to be his cousin
