    Hi

    im going to get 2 tyres, a wheel repaired and maybe some ds2500's for the 6 pots and an MOT.

    im going to put £500 aside for some or a toy for the S2. maybe a little more.

            the pads etc are already accounted for.

            its a spare £500.

            Glasto is also paid for. the rest of the glasto shopping list can wait for a couple of months and is covered anyway.

            maybe a ****** but not a banker. lol. im EU IT manager for Russell Hobbs. we own George forman, carmen, tower amongst other brands.

                lol

                done a beerwall before now at uni. hoffmeister and tetleys.

                tbh im struggling with things to buy. thats why i asked. unless i go stupid with the hp then im getting towards the end of the road with the audi.

                i dont think i can extract much more from the stock head and almost stock standard block. dont really love the car enough to think its gonna be fun with say 750hp to put the money towards that and start the build. for me the audi served a purpose when the corrado was written off and i needed a car for work and play that i could tweak with. for me its not in the same ballpark as a drivers car or chassis as the C.

                got a sach racing clutch and 7a flywheel. think ill get that lightened and fitted to start with.

                  if the car is pretty sorted i would spend £500 on a few hours of track time.

                              i got koni dampers. they are great.

                              not into recaros like that esp at that money. i was on the verge of buying so gt2/gt3 recaro leather buckets. may have a look for some.

                              dont you love throw-away money
