Next day i took it to a friends workshop to take a proper look, an hours welding later it was ready to scrape through an mot.
one of the front shocks seems to have burst, the inner cv has gone on nearside and its difficult to get into 1st gear
but, absolutley loving it so far, not even had to put fuel in it yet (sdi)

Ive got myself a new cv joint, a friend has given me some fk coilies from a polo he scrapped so i'll get on those jobs when i can be arsed.

in the mean time i thought i better put my own spin on things and make it a bit more "mine"





decided im going to go Primer Harliquin as ive not seen it done.





problem is for the blue and green i used emulsion and before it dried



it bloody pissed it down so i washed it off and had a rethink





using grey in place of blue and ill be changing the green to a lighter more matte one as soon as i get some paint.

will hopefully be done buy monday so ill upload "finished" pictures then.

What do you think?

I take it some of you don't like it then? Lol

POWPOW!! You'll have to pm me your number buddy.

Spent yesterday sorting the back of this out, painted everything inside matte black and removed the yellow astro turf. Was happy to find a proper rubber bed tray underneath

How are you getting out with the S4? What are the thing that have gone wrong with? I'm pretty tempted by one after my Corsa.

S4 is bloody wicked... when it works, I've taken it off the road for a few months to sort out a few niggles. It's perfect except running cost, as it's the most practical car I've owned plus it's quick as you like.

Things that go wrong are mostly boost leaks but I've just replaced them all with silicone jobbies

That being said, I might put it up for sale soon as I want to free up cash for the house and the mk1. Now I've got the van I have no need for an estate and using £20 of diesel a week is much friendlier than £70 of petrol

Yeah, they do seem to tick all of the boxes, I don't use a car to get work, and don't do many miles. So fuel isn't an issues. I've also just become a Dad, so sometimes we need a bigger when we going shopping. The only thing that puts me off, I'd like to take it on track sometimes, and they are bit of a front heavy barge.

Did a temporary job of a false floor, not quite happy with it so will be coming out and re done when i get a chance, also going to be lining the back with acoustic carpet.
Sprayed doorcards and interior trim black and also sprayed the carpet black.
Got a center consol from an ibiza gti and gearknob from a polo gti and fitted those.
Been playing around with an old ipad as a media center
