This morning it fired into life :D, The B82rez needed charging, so thats happening now in the garage :)

Got the number plates and them black roof gutter jobbies off, cleaned under the bonnet a bit, got all the leaves and crap out of the battery tray, Gave it a nice jetwash and a microfibre mitt wash, then the hose broke, and it started raining, so its partially spotless :lol:

Picked up new door locks, boot lock and grey rear cards from aaron0909 today ( :thumbsup: Cheers ) So now i've got 4 Keys for it :lol:

Got One rear doorcard fitted when i got in, Was a Right pain :lol:

Plans : These will be happening rather slowly, or until i get a new job so i can afford to to bits to it

-Sort an alarm out

-Sort the brakes out

-Sort the Niggly bits (gear linkage, tiny patches of rust)

-Semi colour-coded bumpers

-Lower it a bit more

-Sort the interior , possibly a scirocco seats etc.

-Put some sounds in

will put some updated pics up tomorrow at some point :)

Right, as i've got new locks on the car, i had 1 key for ignition and passenger side, and 2 for drivers side and boot lock, and last night i had a few :ninja: and decided one of the keys would look better luminescent pink :lol:

But, as i was getting out i saw this :crybaby:

Theres a massisve puddle in the passenger side rear footwell, I've looked at the door seals, and they aren't perished, they are a bit open at the bottom, by about 2cm, other than there, where could it be coming from?

Could it be linked to the fact that its constantly steamed up on the windows?

Edit - The rear door cards went in nicely after i'd sussed it out :)

They might not match, but its better than none being there at all :D

i there we've got; Brembo discs, mintex pads, rear drums, mirrors, fuel pump, German plates, a new air intake pipe thing, various bits in that tub (door handles, locks, wheel bolts, dash blanks etc)

as far as my dad can tell, once its got a new back tyre on, it should go straight though an MOT :D

not bad for about 450 quid including the car :)

Oh and for quick lolz, heres 16x13j :lol:

I could be persuaded to :ninja:

I'd happily swap them for some tyres for the scalas though, maybe 175/50/14 :)

edit - scrap the 175s just seen prices for them, bollocks to 300 pound a set :o

165/60/14s are nicer :)

Edited by Polio
