A nice 3 hour drive home.... 1/2 a tank.. not too bad.
Alas there are a few little probs. :sad::sad: but not too much of an issue to fix. Drivers door is quiet badly dented (tesco car park ) and might need replacing. the paint work on the bumpers is :censored::censored: but looking to replace those anyway. need a power amplifier for the drivers window (think thats what the little black box is. ) wheels need a refurb and the interior again is :censored: so im on the look out for a good leather interior.
its been stood for a year so needs a service and the brakes looking at, they work but not as well as i remembered the TT brakes to be.
however the big thing is the boot floor. a massive rust hole. and i mean massive. all round where the spare wheel sits. i was just pulling it off and off and off.... on his drive lol... thing is its just gone through an MOT and nothing was noted. maybe they missed it.. it was complete with no hole until i go going on it. will need to drop the fuel tank clean it up and weld a plate in there i think.
on the plus side. i have the full history of the car. including the original Japanese paper work, manual auction paperwork and every receipt since its been in the UK. so i know its been looked after. the Sils are all sound and the engine is good and strong. Turbos kick in and again are strong with virtually no lag.
cos of the bits and pieces i noticed around the car managed to knock off another £400. which is pretty good considering everything i need to do i can do at work for free lol
AS above... Pick the new girl up today :clap:
