Ha ha... if only!

Trying to get this done in time for a laning trip to Salisbury next weekend with Mr. Freediscoranger and possibly discomikey.
 
hehe looking smart sam. i finally got my airbox fitted too for the trip, no more worries about dust. made the cab a hell of a lot quieter too.

i think ill have to see if i can get a paying seat cover for the trip cos at the moment i cant afford the diesel haha

Yeah know what you mean. I got two seat covers coming so far... couple more wouldn't be bad.

Are you camping as well?
 
Bled all my brakes yesterday, then took it out for a spin. It cut out just after going up a hill, started again a minute later thought. I think the tank pipe is partially out of the tant and needs fixing back in. Worked fine for the rest of the day thought
 
Drove it to work

Through the Aberdeenshire Snow, which kinda turned to slush on the A90,
but it meant i got to work with a smile, instead of the normal 'Audi Commute' --

And I did like it. :D

And the girlys at work all wanted to sit in the drivers seat once i got there.

Which was nice :D
 
Ordered new number plate after it being snapped by the mud on the plains. New location for the new one and not on the bumper.

Jammy git. Bloody sun is out here.:(
 
Took it for a spin after putting on the new silencer, feels like its down on power compared to the full straight system so I think I'll be modifying it slightly
 
ripped all the carpets out and chucked them in the bin... along with the sound deadening!

Also fitted a new alternator after the salisbury mud killed my old one... did the belt whilst I was at it!
 
Straightened my radiators find after they were wire brushed to clean them coming back from Salisbury plain Saturday :(
 
Fitted a replacement turbo oil drain pipe cause I melted the old one. Didn't disconnect the battery when I took turbo off and the manifold touched the live on the starter and the braided oil drain pipe glowed red as it earthed to the block.

.....Dope:eek:
 
Drove it to work and back! On the way home some young spunk trumpet in a chavved up astra decided he was going to cut me up on a roundabout. When he realised I was'nt going to yield he changed his mind and jammed the brakes on. The look on his face while his female passenger (Probably called chardonnay mercedes) gave him a mouthful, was priceless!
