what have you done to your car today ?

[iammooks]

Pumped the tyres up - drove it out of the car park and back home.

Ever seen those videos where people leave their grotty bike somewhere and when they come back to it, someone's taken it away and totally renovated it?

I live in hope of that happening to my car. I'm guessing if you left it in a car park for a week, you might have been feeling the same...

Well that was crap.
Fitted the new hot n hard pipe and the fit was crap at the turbo end.
Did the best i can and took it for a run. Decided to blow off at about 3.5k.
Fits the original back on roadside and all back to normal.
Take a look in the box and the return form says musnt be fitted.
Going to contact them anyway.
On top of that, the passenger door wont open!
Walked away for now.

Chuck it in the bin and put it down to experience.
Ive messaged the seller but doubt I'll get much out of them to be honest.

Tested a new battery on the car, surprised it worked so now... cables and wiring to figure out! Yay!

Gave her a wash maybe a polish when I can find a bit of time

I want a house with a driveway

 

[Manic172]

I want a house with a garage.... or a garage I can sleep in.. also had Connor H pop over for a visit and to have a poke about the car. I think he went off with a head full of ideas tho. Lol

The metal pipe didn't go into the turbo elbow straight. I thought id risk it and it didn't pay off. It blew off whilst i was giving it a foot load. The pipe needs a few degrees adding to the bend.
Looking at the feedback of the seller i have my doubts ill get any money back.
So will look into increasing the angle. If that doesnt work I'll sling it.
I wouldn't want to drop it on another unsuspecting punter.

I have the driveway and the Cupra r. I want a garage that is “empty” of crap. Whatever you have you’ll always want more!!!!

My plate is a 3/4 size sticker on the other side.
Never had a problem.
Except car park cameras find it difficult to read them.
I’m having problems with Tapatalk so photos are a problem.

Filth.

Same colour as mine too, which gives me bad ideas.

For now though I'll just be blacking out my badge. Was that paint or a wrap? I might try to line the edge of mine with some colour...

So far today has been scouring oemepc looking for a part number and failing.

Great thing building a parts bin special right up till there's a part you need that isn't listed ?
