  • Giving the S2 some love

    In the grand scheme of things the poor old girl doesn't get too much time spent on her, what with the usual family/work etc, then the other cars taking all the attention. But, bless, over the weekend the old girl has been given a good old scrub up and polish. Just the wheels to do something with now. But she does clean up really well...

      Thanks Gav

      Took some in the woods today, really can see why Emerald Green cars suffer from people pulling out in front of them...









      If the weather is okay this weekend I'll have another bash at it...

            I always thought that was because i was coming at them faster than they expected

            Nice to know there is an other emerald green one out there being cared for, out of interest what colour is your interior?

                Looking very nice Ian,your car photos always feature your audis in some wooded area just off the road,which leads me to conclusion that you know all the good dogging sites in west sussex!

                          Our ban has been lifted, but they are fitting a water meter in a weeks time instead....

                              Rear brakes are done, took my time with them, cleaning and wire brushing them right back, changed the boots, regreased, and freed everything up. Checked the handbrake cables and cleaned up all the mechanism...

                              So it looks like this now...:tup:
