Mostly using and enjoying the car as a daily driver in the city, but also in trips it can do fine in both when needed

Looks good as always. Sucks about having to replace the gas tank.

thank you mate. yes it was a pita, especially in the time frame it happened, but everything got sorted perfectly and with everything new. Only bad thing was the cost. Other than that straight forward.

Car got used in the summer break as well

Like a rally acropolis car

But cars are meant to be used, not sitting in garages

When I came back, it went from this

Ordered a new adapter for my Oil Temp gauge because the old one seemed tired when I washed the underside of the car.

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

I actually ordered three of them, for other cars, and to have in stock as well. LoL

And also have been thinking about these ABT things in the front fenders

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Here on an Audi S1 of a nice guy

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

We shall see, havent decided yet.

Teaser of a new mod i pulled of, more for safety reasons, but also, i like how it looks.

[mgpdoc]

Bought some ramps for safer working in the garage.

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

I wanted 4, but only 2 were in stock. We shall see when they have some available again. Had to modify them and chop the stopping points in order to fit under the car.

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Marked to chop here

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

And now it fits under the sideskirts

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

I also did it in the other two running cars, and looks very smart to be honest.

Thanks mate, cheers !!

Received two more ramps for the car to have a set of 4 to lift it all up in the air if need be.

Bought some stickers for the A4 in different colours , with the quattro logo.

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

however also bought some more just to play with

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Couldnt help but try some on the A1 as well

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Untitled by mgpdoc, on Flickr

Yeah it was nice, thing is, that A1 is fwd and not quattro.

Well let's fix that

Cut the U from Quattro and turn it upside down, add an O to it
