I made a start to making the very first Pine green Votex

I'll post more as it's progressing

There we have it, finally got it done believed to be the only Votex kitted Pine green in existence.

I just need to finish off the boot spoiler, get the front brakes all replaced and down to the mot station for a new lease of life

Reminds me of the Pine Green A2 @ Wolfsburg Museum in Germany - Design classic status

The rear suspension and brakes have been overhauled, I just have to find the time to do the fronts while I wait for the brake back plates arriving for Autodoc and we'll be good to go

Here's some pics of the Votex getting painted and then fitted, slightly out of sync in the tread but better late than never lol

A big thanks goes to Paul for supplying the missing sill spacers as per usual as good if not better than the original ones

I might be after a jacking point cover, my painter might've lost one of them Although not all hope's lost just yet

I'm sure somebody has noticed this already Iain, but I cannot help but notice your number plate has changed very subtly.

In pic one it is SJ02 FSS and in post 23 it is SJ02 FFS, now I'm guessing either you really like what FFS stands for, or it's a typo.

Yes that thought was in the back of my mind too. I once saw an advert for an A2 that on closer inspection had different front and rear plates, but when you look back a few posts, Iain's car has changed front number plate.

Oh FFS! I hadn't noticed I emailed the eBay seller the V5 so I'm hoping it's his mistake and not mine or that'll be a set of nice new pressed plates going to waste lol

 

[ICowie]

I've just had a quick look through my purchase history and thankfully it was their mistake not mine so what for the updated pics with the correct plates Thanks for spotting that James, That could've been a real pain in the ass if I mot'd with that plate on it
