Looked like it was coming out of the car park at Sweet street/Meadow Lane, behind Halfords. Today 16:15pm.

Excited. Race between us, who can get an MoT first. OK, you win.

Passed the MoT with no issues?

I took the car for it's MoT just before xmas and it failed. But I'm ok with that. The brakes are reason. It was hit and miss whether they'd make it through on the numbers. But I thought it would show some credibility if the rap sheet has things on that I can remedy and provide evidence I've...

The car is in for its MoT tomorrow. I spent a few nights on it & most of today. I've managed to eradicate some of the green by spraying the cam cover and scraping off the remains on the inlet. I've also painted the windscreen wipers, as they were just bizarre. Thankfully they're now black...

Making steady progress. The MoT is 9 days away. Continuing on from the list on the last post... the handbrake light. This is definately to do with the ABS, which the car doesn't have. In order to turn the light off - I needed to destroy the PCB track to the ABS on the clocks. Stripped them...

How are you going to lower it? investing in bags or just the static method? Get some engine bay shots & interior. What engines do people put in them?

Sorted the idle problem. Cleaned the map sensor (+ found one for a tener on ebay - so now have a spare). There's a fine dusting of oil in the inlet tract and the map sensor is not a 'remote' one, connected via a vacuum hose (like mine). So I'm making an assumption it was coated in that...

It's just boost cut. The load sites arent available, the previous owner thinks it was a Renault 5. Varying degrees of reliability post 180bhp. Its a topic in itself.

The saxo turbo is laid up awaiting some expensive parts and whilst looking for second hand bits - I found this car for sale on facebook. It was local and I've not had a 106 before, but have experience with the sister cars. So have taken this one on as a winter project/xmas present. Advert...

Yeah, but its ancient and I think I need gas. But looks like it's going to be the way.

I've been checking the valve clearances on my bike and one of the valve cover bolts snapped. Typically it is the one most exposed to the front wheel and not even half a can of WD40 made any odds. I'm left with this: There's not a great deal of land, left on the thread of the bolt, but I...

Each?

Turbo next.

I bet this is fun. Small cars with power, my favourite category of vehicle!

What is the full spec of the A6?

From Ford though, not surprised on the pricing. Fun comes at a cost. It's how my kids were created. A wise man once said, there are no pockets in shrouds.

Love it. Steering wheel does look like it is from a Saxo owners facebook group. What are you getting instead? OMP trecendo or something? Would look great with some TD Pro race. What wheels options have you got?

Shame to sell it, but you've had your use.... I always felt the R26 was underpowered.
