I wanted to document my experiences so far with my A2 aptly known as 'The Pocket Rocket' around my local neighborhood.
A little history to start with, I purchased the car from my Grandfather-in-Law for £950, with a view to getting it back on the road, the Audi had been sat in his garage for 3 years, untouched, unloved and very very dusty!
The car is rather special as it has the factory fitted red leather interior and working OSS, it's quite an odd build as it doesn't have the red leather steering wheel or gearstick Gaitor and it also doesn't have air-conditioning which I am told is rather unusual for an A2.
The car came with the following faults and part of the agreement was that for £950 the car had 12 months MOT:
Front N/S Spring Broken
PAS Fault
Brake Light Switch Failure
Front Fixed Glass Section Of OSS Missing
We set about repairing these faults one by one to get 'The Pocket Rocket' ready for its big test!
