    you did,I was on there from when I had my B5 passat wagon and because I was in a B5 again I thought i'd stick a post up but it never got much traffic because my updates are work dependant so it got archived a lot lol

    and hi eck lol we get about dont we hahaha,we're looking at a CNC machine(mainly for diamond cutting)for in the work but its ideal for adaptors so if it comes quick enough ill knock my own adaptors up as im truly fed up with getting fucked about for them

      adaptors are on their way but the car isnt,down on compression on two cylinders so the cold starting problem wasnt the temp sender like I hoped,could be either sticking or burnt valves,a hairlined gasket or rings none of them good,plus the first cv that got knocked off for a new gaitor to get fitted fell to bits and it still needs a new downpipe/decat

        UGH. Sorry to hear, man. I'm really liking your car so far, hope it gets properly sorted.

                three years is a bit long for an update....

                basically the red A4 died :-(

                got a cheap runabout...1.6 auto


                lowered it,cleaned it,put different wheels on it






                put it back on the sebrings and sold it,replaced it with a corrado vr


                tried on wheels




                rough winter took its toll


                everything broke.....the brakes,the matrix,the radiator and if I didnt break it I crashed it ...

                fixed it


                lowered it and new wheels


                lowered it more and fixed the front end


                tried more wheels


                took it places


                got it all painted and more new wheels






                then sold it.... swapped it for an Audi S3 that was a disaster


                within two months


                have to go do a bit work but ill finish the update shortly

                      year 2.....

                      crashed the S3 picked up a pelican.....


                      wasnt going to touch it,pure work vehicle,1.8 20v non T

                      tried the BIM's on for a laugh


                      lowered it


                      broke the exhaust,used my mom's polo dune for a while


                      bought some wheels


                      tires on and wheels on










                      ran about with the avus with the track tires on and had a blast


                      then picked up some 9x17 team dynamics


                      went chunky tires again because of the avus


                      also bought an A8 from a friend


                      didnt really do much to it other than silencer deletes but started amassing parts






                      but then I broke the Pelican expected a bad winter so bought another runabout, A6 c5 2.5TDi

                        Ive also had this mk1 for going on 5-6 years now which ive been playing with more and more but keep getting side tracked

                        started off as a 1.1 for my sisters 17th then she didnt want it


                        dropped it 50mm for her and fitted some renault wheels


                        after she said she didnt want it(prefered a polo :/ )I fitted coilovers


                        then started upping the wheel and engine game,went to a 1.3 digifant engine and OZ executives


                        refurbed them and changed them to 8s all round

                              The A8 was meant to be sold to pay for another purchase but it needed a bumper paint and the sale kinda went sour. Ill fill in the blanks when I get home
