That's a catch 22, I'd say a keeper but I sead that about the s5 hahaha, think once iv done all I need to her I will keep her and possibly ger a stag engine and box and rebuild that and put that in I'm not sure at the moment, also thinking of another audi but q7 4.2 but it's time to work on them as work nights so sat basically rest day and Sunday is catch up day

Hi mate this has the rover 3.5 lump in engine sounds lovely to be fair and the body work very good it has a little rust witch is forgiven for her age, it's needs refreshing inside, handbrake sorting, band brakes sorting,

She came out though the front just and I mean just fits with cats off and headers, she now sold had a offer I couldn't say no too, now doing a 1971 triumph stag

Cheers Steve appreciate that bud

Been out in her loads haha sounds really nice I'm well stoked

Well she went for her m.o.t and a pass

Well got the control arms went to put them on wrong ones there too big 14mm was correct just too wide to fit in the hole on the v part the 8K0407695C item number don't come up on there system, the part number you need is ss2721 left side and ss2722 for the right side, not sure if the other ones are for the a5 can't get my money back as I put them on the car but thay did me a deal on the correct ones so if these fit your car just 50.00 I payd 130.00

True think it was the drive down the m.o.t Station that made the decision, ordered the 2 wishbone arms as I'll change both, jobs for today will change the plates over, and put the dash camera on

Happy new year all, well iv kept the audi can't sell her she too nice, took her for a m.o.t and she failed on a stering arm bush it had a split in it, don't ask why but I didn't tighten 2 wheel nuts properly 🤷‍♂️, rear plate light went off, esp light but that needs calibration done, so got new plates for her to go on

Well a Isuzu dmax, or q7 iv got too program the rear lights, and the button to open the boot it opens buy key and inside switch only that's it she done

Hi Steve I need a 4x4 and I can't have 3 cars iv seen one witch would be perfect

If I was thinking of selling as she stands with no m.o.t what's do you think she worth

No that's there fare commitments and I take them on the chin I just assumed when you changed the price on the form that's it job done, but I'll get it in writing the valve of the car it may put the price up but as you say the work that's gone in to her it's worth doing

Well she nearly done just getting new tyre for the back, just got a small leak on the power steering hose so a easy fix and need too bleed the breaks to put fresh do4 in and bleed the radiator from the hose at the back sound lush 20240829_135629.mp4

The only thing I can do when I insurer her is phone them and tell them and get it agreed that way and go from there

Yea on the form you fill out thay put a price of what thay think it's worth due too year and mileage, and all I did was edit it too 6k on the value of the car and thats where thay came back with 400.61 iv got all the photos of the build here on my phone as iv gone along

Noo I'll be insuring her for 6k witch I think it's a far price got a quote of 400.61 per year full com with all mods declared so that's not so bad

I did jump on to car wow, and another one can't think of it now but thay where much better not great but more realistic around 4k mark, when you look round ebay, face book market place you see your make of car 5k 6k same year nothing done work wise its like 😁 wow what's mine worth, and to me its been well worth putting the money in mine rebuilding it -replacing parts, then you see a fresh engine rebuild for sale 5k on its own, so at the end of the day places like that wants them cheap as thay can get for auction, and possibly aboard

Exactly I would put my s5 around 4.5k 5k mark due too what's gone into it, I think thay got pulled up before for under value car prices

Not much done today put all the engine bay stuff all back on, ordered a new set of ballast for the lights as one wasn't working put new abs sencers on the rear, did try and start her but not enough in the battery 😔 so it be tomorrow now

That look the nuts mate I'm liking that

Haha I also wany too see her finished now

Well the rear headlight level sencer a pig it's bolted to the subframe witch is no big deal but the ⛽ tank in the way👀 so thought na I'll use the old frame and just use the new sencer but had to cut the old screws off as thay was just turning but all came good in the end 20240825_120348.heic

Kept seeing we buy anycar So I thought for a giggle what the s5 was worth too them £185.00🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭
