After a couple months of rest for the Avant it was time to bring it back out.
First job before MOT was replacing the steering coupling. I have done this before on the Coupe so was easier this time round.
MOT passed as expected and taxed ready to be enjoyed.
After months of sitting out exposed to the elements i decided to give it a clay bar and polish.
Looks like it really needed a clay bar. The paint is silky smooth now !
I was lucky to get hold of a RS2 intercooler through the Tradition group buy run by Colesy so this was fitted next. This was the last part needed to complete the full RS2 spec.
I have a set of Toyo Proxies Sport tyres ready to go on the current tyres are old and perished they no longer grip the way they should. I will be taking it for a dyno run soon hopefully make 360-380bhp.
