  • Talks the talk for 20 pages, can't seem to take the engine out... keeps blaming the Clio?

  • Sounds like you need another Fabia.                   A nice bathroom green one.

I've decided to stop deciding and get on with the original idea however at the moment there is a big lump of Jaguar blocking access to a warm garage

I thought you got rid of it ages ago?!

  • Author

Nope I got rid of others to keep this.

  • 2 weeks later...

Yes! I do have a thing about Blue cars, there's another one missing. You may have noticed the front end is back on as I'm fed up of moving all of the bits around together, the PAS has gone and I'm just running the Rack with a U pipe, ABS unit is another thing gone. Got to make up some pipes for when I get some 312s on, just a few jobs for the week now I can put it inside the farage

Ripped the wiring loom out this morning, removed emission control what's it's name and pulled out ABS pump

Whoa is this progress?

:P

:finger: yes it is :) hopefully even more to come soon. The loom is to be ditched as it's got scotch locks and joins everywhere plus I want to make the vehicle a lot more basic.

Oi, take 6 weeks off for the garage who struggled with it. It'll be about that time again before its repaired and back on the road.

I forgot the non serious smileys :P yeah you're right to an extent as with 6 days a week 8:30 to 6 there's no time left by the time I've done the 50 miles home so as a result things have been getting put off too far recently. Need to get it done.

In other news anyone want any Fabia parts as all un needed bits will be placed in a skip very soon.

Thankfully I'm not the mug who has to repair the Jag this time :D

hahah :D
