last pic of the summer, still going strong after some work...

not been since 2018 , we did the NC500 though, which was fun, we also did a europe trip including all the Alps roads 203,000 miles now.... its kinda retired, the family car is the fabia 2 vRS we bought this year to replace our rusty as fook audi.... planning on going back to the ring next year if we can! recent pics of the cars

quick update, he's still going, another MOT passed, put a sports cat in it now, its taken the edge off the performance , but its all legit and legal now

thats part of the breather system, just replace it.

got a new one my third!

feeling a bit down, in this second 'lockdown' struggling for money really, having 3 cars is a luxury for just two of us... anyone want to buy it? MOT and service within last few hundred miles, x4 "as new" tyres, goodyear F1 supersports on the front, Goodyear F1 asymetric 5s on the rear (less than 200 miles ago) make me an offer. (except Haydn (nice yellow vRS) ) . its no going anywhere unless an enthusiast wants it, to keep it alive, and NOT break it. PMs only, any posts on here will be deleted... (to be fair this will probably be deleted as its not paid for ad...)

I hate it when this happens..... a good 5mm on x2 michelin pilot supersports :( not having unmatched tyres, put x2 new goodyear eagle F1 asymmetric 5 s on .... other supersport is for sale on ebay if anyone wants it! £200 bill when I really don't need it :(

its been running a bit rough, so for the sake of £9 I changed the plugs, they were pretty much welded in place, think they had been there a long time, didn't look too bad though, seems happier with the new ones in

nice, at least you know the engines well, will be interesting to see what its like on track in comparison... can you turn the ESP completely off? haven't had the quattro on track, but on the road its interesting, power understeer, transfers to total grip as the haldex sends power backwards.... you've done them all now, FWD, RWD, now 4WD! :O oh, and watch for fire when messing with those injectors

nice bum.

my tailpipes! lol....

new steering rack, another new hub, new rear brakes, and a new MOT! our lass has been modding it... before: After: I think it looks better, but I want the rings black too

I had to wonder what they were playing at , no mention of the missing cat! however....they changed the oil and the plugs, and kept running additives through it... and they eventually got it down (just) to the required amount! :O with NO cat! :O Gobsmaked to say the least ........

The car has a de-cat, and a custom map to match the hardware (3" downpipe and 3" system using powerflow boxes) ... the same place has been MOT ing it for the last 4 years, I always assumed they were not checking the emissions, as people with sports cats struggle to pass let alone NO cat! :O however this year it failed on emissions :

well, Daddy Phantom lives to fight another year .... seems to be getting harder though... found rust for the first time.... i suppose its 19 years old now, so to have none before this is ok... and its where the sill is bent from idiots jacking it up wrong... needed welding for MOT, so fixed.....
