Well spent some time on the car today and to my horror i have discovered the drivers chassis leg has a slight tweek in it, i was always wondering why the front bumper wasnt lining up to well.Look's like the porta power has to come out, only got to move it 2mm but the problem is it has cracked the paint so will need a bit of paint on the chassis leg. Not the nest news i wanted, especially in a hung over state.

She is straight again, left the car with my mate who runs a bodyshop and just got her back all straight and now the bumper and lights etc line up as they should, happy again.This big beast soon set her straight-  To a straight front once again-  Now I have to sort the paint work where the leg was creased.

Long time, not really done a great deal to the car, with having other cars etc this got left out.Every year I have kept up the mot history so it's always moted, the other day was its turn for its mot. Plus the fact I had a white Rallye in the garage for some work and it got me into getting her out. First off I gave it a bloody good clean and also washed the underside with some truck wash and the hot pressure washer, it's amazing how nice the car came up.     Also sent away a spare steering wheel I had and had it re trimmed in leather with the Rallye colours in the stitching.   The results are amazing to be honest. It's slightly thicker than standard now but it has a nice feel to it and looks great.  Next few bits I am looking for is a new time clock, unsure how or why but the crystal display has gone all funny  Sort a knock from the front, it only does it now and then and I can't seem to find it, annoying to say the least  Managed to use it for a week and clocked up 150 miles, also forgot how quick it was and also how bloody loud the exhaust is, will have to do something with that, it's madness at motorway speeds. Also had the lads birthday the other week, my brother had him some work wear made, face says it all  Carl ________________________________________ C.G.Cars of Leicester, Peugeot/Citroen/Renault specialist Tel: 01162 624498/07799 405184 WWW.CGCARSLEICESTER.CO.UK36 narborough road south, Leicester LE3 2fn MOT station now open, tests £35 with a free retest.

Has to be my favourite white Rallye, remember when I took my 6 up to your garage for some work and this was sat out front, looking brutal.Then I think it was you Carl, started it up to drive it into the garage, and it was like all hell breaking loose, sounded like an absolute beast of an animal! I fell in love that day ________________________________________ ''Oh, it does handle like a golf!'' Why drive a Golf....when you can drive a GTi-6? |
