Goldie 2 Posted May 10, 2008 Well after yesterdays exciting purchase the job today was to clean her all up ready for the summer off... And on with the cover. Really pleased with it, breathable and water proof and a doddle to put on. Have also left a small dehumdifiying unit inside to prevent and nasty growths. In a couple of weeks will do the final touches for the summer of rest... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldie 2 Posted May 11, 2008 keep going mate she's gonna be a belter, wht back brakes are you running i know you have the better set up on the front! p.s i want a ride when the new V6 is in and purring! Cheers Andy, no worries for a run out in it when its all sorted..Ive got Mk4 rears wheich i took off a Fabia VRs so they were green when i got them. When painting them they need primed as they are aluminium.. As for an improvement when driving im not sure because my other ones were quite new but the handbrake is great and they look prettier... you going to put the 12valve in the mk2? Id be lying if i said i havent thought about it but i think it may just end up being sold. Its not been ruled out though.. [quote=" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldie 2 Posted May 11, 2008 Looking good goldie! Are you doing anything to protect the brake discs from flash rust etc or just planning to replace in Oct? :salute: Good question. Im not sure what would be the best plan, its the one bit of the car that i am worried about really as i know they will rust although i cant imagine they will be terrible...

CrazyDave 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Will seem a bit strange not seeing you at meets this year. All the best for the next few months. Can you get on the net at all? We're all so used to being hooked up all the while, would be strange to be without for a few months? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
