Was great to meet the famous A2 Steve on sat. A top bloke, was great to finaly meet him. Fitted my leather seats in 30 min ! Loving my A2 tdi ❤…. Fitted a set of black leather seats for @Jayhaz71 after he had just picked up his new to him A2 from another member. Has to be a record I think for speed of having the first mod after purchase.
Brilliant! Audi missed a trick not extending the windscreen that far up; looks fab!Today I'm posting the Father's Day card my daughter made. The A2 has made a real impression with the family and it's not even up to scratch yet.
I also ordered the steel to lift up the back of the car so that I can remove the whole of the rear axle beam at some stage. If it works I will post some details.View attachment 82828

Today I drove up to Walsall and test drove the FSI I put a deposit down on last week. Despite best efforts, the dealer couldn’t be persuaded to do a deal for the seats alone, but I was actually quite pleased because I was seriously impressed with how the car drove. The positive action of the gear change and how ‘modern’ and quiet it felt definitely exceeded my expectations. Whilst beautifully specced, it is tired in quite a few places but I’m going to give it a go and see how I get on.
I then headed up to WOM and dropped Tonka off for its service, cambelt change and oil pump chain and sprocket change. It was lovely to see a number of cars in the flesh I’d only previously read about or seen photos of including the legendary @Imola Yellow and @Darren C ‘s beautiful car to name but two.
Then my dear friend Paul, who had kindly agreed to pick me up from WOM and drive me back home to Gloucestershire, announced he thought the Dolphin Grey one might be perfect for his son so I’m hoping that has found a good home as well!!
Quite a day!!!
I hope you didn't look too closely at mine - its main use is as a house moving van at the moment, so a bit of a shed inside.I then headed up to WOM and dropped Tonka off for its service, cambelt change and oil pump chain and sprocket change.

I think the fact that its still in one piece after almost 600,000k miles is impressive enough.I hope you didn't look too closely at mine - its main use is as a house moving van at the moment, so a bit of a shed inside.

It comes with the benefit of cruise control heated red leather still looks worn but it’s the best I can do without dying them and to be honest I quite like the worn look .. Two mint front headlights has made a difference..Brakes front and back have been refreshed new discs rear cylinders and pads .oil change and filters inc cabin ..new drop links oh and Sunroof working ?.. I will drive it now it’s a new winter hack.. But looks half tidy.. Just offside rear wheel arch to paint and rear spoiler to paint next week and that’s it..at 160k plus not to shabby .

in a steam cleaned swirl chamber on the head.
Unless you’ve cleaned that up.
Hope that helps
