Looking good. I bet you can't wait for it to be finsihed so you can log all the sizes of the nuts and bolts used!!

1000th post, I was holding out for that John

Getting there Richard, patience is a virtue.

What will arrive first project Citigo-go or Yellow Peril :think:

1000th post, I was holding out for that John

I hadn't even noticed it was the 1000th post!!

Sorry!! :(

Citi Go Go Go is looking ever closer to the chequered flag, looking forward to seeing it out on the road or the track.

They need to be custom drive shafts aswell?

Theres only goint to be 50% of the citigo donar left at this rate well the skin in any case!

Most likely, not a lot of call for VAG sized rear shafts for a car the width of the Citigo apparently.

Heaven knows why.

What will arrive first project Citigo-go or Yellow Peril :think:

Well the 13th July will be a year since I had the idea and started this thread Lee.

Would be nice not to run into year two.

Of course, you didn't help by bringing the Yellow Peril (Rapid) delivery forward three weeks last week!

The other Yellow Peril, or should that be giant Banana is going just fine.

It had an all round suspension change last week.

I don't care what size your bolts are, Richard, but you've certainly got huge nuts to take on a project like this

I'm sure the experts know what they're doing

looks great!

Cant wait to see it done!

I know that the idea behind this amazing project is to stay looking as standard as possible but I can't help but feel that the subtle addition of an "N" and an "E" to the CITIGO badge on the rear would be good

Been a while since there's been updates but Richard is busy. I'm amazed he has time for everything. He's got so many vehicles he's probably got a TARDIS somewhere so he can be in two places at once

With the best will in the world, I am now in the hands of Jabbasport.

They are doing the work at a sensible rate, so when they have a Golf racer to sort it has to come first... and we are now back in the racing season.

Let's not forget they are running a business.

There is still a fair bit to do (5 weeks worth maybe?) so as much as I want it done badly it'll be done when it is... unfortunately bugging them is not going to be productive.

Things to do (mostly complete list)

Engine electrics and pairing up to dash unit.

Final engine build.

Finishing roll cage and mounting.

Fitting sequential box and shifter, when it comes back.

Finishing interior and mounting seats.

Brakes.

Wheels and tyres.

Exhaust.

Stripping, coating, sealing everything to make it look like new.

Updates will come as progress is made.

Hopefully it won't be too long!

All Good things come to those who wait!

.............so as much as I want it done badly.........

I don't think you really wanted to say that

I don't think you really wanted to say that

lol I could have done it for half the cost if that was the design brief!

Perhaps a VRI badge similar to VRS, standing for "Very Ruddy Insane" ?

Citigo Blackline would be the subtle option................................that's what it's going to be laying down mostly

Or the Citigo Skidmark, it'll being laying a few of those down as well, just not on the road

Is that the new spin-off forum??

Would that make Richard a 'BRISKGOD'?

I doubt it Brimma, more like Goda, the force is strong in that one!

Video, video, video I hope you've made a wee film from start to finito ?

Hi Richard, when I seen Citigo build: 4x4 and 450bhp on your signature I thought it was a p*ss take! Intrigued I clicked on it, but haven't had to time to read every post! All the best of luck with this and like everyone else I'm looking forward to seeing the finished project

It's at Jabbasport, they are fiddling with the wiring.

Not much to write about.

You would be supprised, you can write loads... but your not doing it and a bet they dont share the detail as wireing is a Mare!!!

Nice to hear its moving along.
