I took a day off work to get a few more bit done on the mk2 before this weekend's Chelsea cruise, and Sundays run from Boxhill if it's still going ahead?

 

Colin from Ashton Mobile came over again and replaced my waterpump and oil pump, now I can actually drive the bleedin' thing! As usual Colin did a top job and got it done in no time, and gave me some handy tips and hints along the way. Cheers Colin :thumbsup:

 

After that I finally changed the red carpet for a black one, got the cage in, harnesses fitted and cibies on, although they're not wired up yet. They look good though :mrgreen: Cosmetically all I have left to do is replace the RS2000 rear bumper for a standard one, fit the Mexico stripe kit and replace the tyres for lower profile ones although I still need to decide between 185/60 and 175/50, I'm really torn which ones to go for. Anyway, any excuse for a couple of before/after pics.

 

When I first got the car-

I was chuffed with the days work until I put the car in (into :banghead: ) the garage and did this-

Now I need to get that repaired ASAP before the stripes go on :roll:

Shame about the arch, we all do things like tho mate.

 

I just finished putting a new moulding strip on the rear quarter last year, first time out with it on and reversed into a lamppost outside Burtons :lol:
