    Removing rust?

    Krust and Hammerite are pretty crap to be honest. Used the bilthamber de-ox gel in the past and its really good. Ive also used the Por-15 and again its good stuff.
  2. Some really good work going into this. Will be worth it when its all back together.

    Yeah I have seen that, need some serious power for that to happen. I think this is running 340bhp at the moment. He does have a 3in downpipe as well to free up a few more. Its the off beat 5cyl warble that does it for me.

    Funny you should say that about the colour as this is the shade similar to oak green with some 17in anthracite BBS RX's. Steering was quite direct, it didnt feel that far off the Corrado. Its an Mreg so one of the later ones with 6speed box, Xenons, leather etc in it so quite well specced although the driving position is not at good as the Corrado though. Porsche brembo front calipers, front end respray etc etc.

    Ive just had a shot of the S2 as it belongs to a mate of a guy at work and he was borrowing it for the week. Its not quite the heavy brute I thought it would be and sounds bloody good. Initially it wasnt that quick but didnt realise the pedal travel was quite long and gave it some more. Not as quick as my car but not far off. The guy also realised he was looking for too much so the price has some down a bit. Im very tempted I must say. Suppose to be picking up the other C this weekend and if its a decent car I think the red one might be going. That sounds daft I know but Ive had my fun Im always very consious that the red one is in such a good condition so Im quite wary of leaving it anywhere. That and the fact I have to tick the Audi 5cly box at some point. At least I should still have a Corrado to fix.
  6. Good one to buy, seems all the right bits have been done to it. So whats happening to the green one?
  7. Ive booked hold baggage. As far as Im aware there is not problem with that, its only hand luggage thats the issue. Full RAC membership anyway but dont like relying on that.
  8. Exeter chaps. Yeah Ive booked a small bag in the hold. No way am I coming back up that far with any tools.
  9. Could you clear your PM's please. Was trying to send you one but your PM box is full.
  10. Id just paint the top half of the bonnet.
  11. Thought that might be the case to be honest. Im just hate having to pay the robbing airline for hold luggage if I dont need too.
  12. Looks like Im flying to pick up another car on Saturday and would like to take some tools with me. Anyone done this before that has had hassle going through security? Im thinking a smallish socket set, adjustable spanner, pliers, duct tape, electrical tape and one or two other little things. Im suspecting screw drivers and the like are not allowed.

    Well done, peace of mind now knowing that all that stuffs ok now.
  14. Mmm, not my cup of tea. Just not an aircooled fan, too much noise and not enough speed. Im assuming its on air?
  15. There is a one just down the road from me that Ive seen for a few years. Nice standard example so I took a chance and left a note on it last week. The guy just got back to me to say it isnt for sale as he has had it since new and its only done 48kmiles!!! Funnily enough he was called Graham. Spooky.

    Yeah there not as good looking but they do have 4wd and a noise to die for. I did ask about it last year and it was a lot cheaper but he did have some work done and there prices are going up. Not worth changing mine for. The other one is just a standardish VR, nothing too exciting.

    Yep. I need locked up. Assuming the guys true to his word and does keep it for me I should get it in a couple of weeks.

    Well it looks like the Audi is not going to happen, the guy is looking for a bit too much. Oh and it looks like I might have bought another Corrado.
  20. The Ur body panels are supposed to be almost impossible to get, I would suspect they are like the corrado x 5 for getting parts for. I think you would need to buy one and a doner shell just in case. That and I reckon both the Ur and Delta are not that fast anymore.
