New S2 Rallye Project

The dents are just car park style thing - nothing major.

That was for a total of 9 dents according to his quote.

 

[imprezaworks]

And there's me moaning about paying my dent man £20 to do every dent on the car. Note to self, don't!!

 

[Matthew]

£200 sounds very expensive to me!

 

[leeds_182]

I thought £22 per dent wasn't too bad!

​I think I need to get more quotes.

 

[Matthew]

Surely the more you have done the price per dent should fall?

Buying in bulk so to speak.

 

[leeds_182]

He said that price was 'doing me a deal'.

 

[leeds_182]

This was the quote I got today;

 

[Matthew]

Christ!

 

[imprezaworks]

Get another quote

 

[leeds_182]

Anyone and recommendations around the Yorkshire region?

 

[Gaz.]

Still got Gaz's number from when you wanted the Golf (I think?) painting? He'll tell you the guy their shop uses, in Donny.

[Gaz.]

Aye I'll sort it in a bit.

Ask Lee at station road. He recommended someone to me a while ago.

 

[Kel11]

The Rallye looks mint! Really like it on the speedlines.

My mate has a white S2. Its stripped, full cage and buckets, probably weighs as much as a mars bar. Think he has a cammed 16v engine ready to drop in over winter.

 

[leeds_182]

Insured this fully today. £250 ish fully comp with greenlight.

Took it out for a drive and almost forgot how bad the brakes were so they're top of the list to do. Also, the fan belt is squeaking like a beatch so will get that changed. Enjoyed the drive though and seemed to pull better then I remember.

The cars booked in for a week on Friday with an ever expanding list of issues;

1) drivers door won't lock
2) airbag light on
3) blowers only work on three
4) horn doesn't work
5) brakes are pants
6) drivers seat has got a mind of its own
7) rear passenger seat belt doesn't retract

Hope to get a number of these issues resolved by then - it's a part of the fun after all.

 

[leeds_182]

Even managed to make enough space to took it in the garage;

 

[Gaz.]

Aye I'll sort it in a bit.

He's on holiday, I forgot.

 

[leeds_182]

No probs.

 

[Matthew]

I f**king want it so much Jim, so much.

Let me know when your selling it, I'll put it to the Mrs, for the crack..

 

[leeds_182]

It's a popular motor.

I'm gonna sort the mechanicals but in two minds whether to spend money on minting up the bodywork.

 

[Matthew]

Get it minted up and then I can have a nice run around

 

[leeds_182]

And ill lose a grand - that's how it works with most my projects!

 

[Matthew]

Exactly! Ha

 

[leeds_182]

Well, had a look at the underneath of the car today and looks like its going to need some welding underneath the ecu tray (where they always go) but the rest of the car looks solid!

As I don't know a friendly welder I'm going to smash this on eBay I think and see what happens.

Sorted the short shift issue out today though so the gear change feels a lot better.

 

[Matthew]

You selling already?

That must be a record Jim.

Keep it long enough for the Halifax drive!

 

[leeds_182]

If I was gonna get the money back I probably would keep it mate but at the rates garages charge I'd end up losing money on it which wasn't part of the plan.

 

[fletch8]

Put the eBay link on here mate or PM what you're roughly after for it

 

[Simon_16v]

I know someone with a welder who may be able to do it cheap Jim?

​Drop me a text mate.

 

[Simon_16v]

Will do as soon as my iPhone decides to sort itself out

 

[leeds_182]

This might be going if the right offer comes on but I thought I'd take the gti spoiler off today as I didn't like the look of it;

 

[DanielJames]

Looks much better without the GTI spoiler

*heads off to ebay to see the ad*

 

[leeds_182]

Not on the bay yet dude!

 

[DanielJames]

As I have just found out lol.

I thought this was it at first

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1998-PEUGEOT-106-RALLYE-16V-ROAD-LEGAL-TRACK-CAR-READY-TO-RACE-RARE-/300912751184?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item460fcc3250

Might it be worth selling the Turinis and putting some steels back on? May help with resale and will probably pocket you a few hundred

 

[axnxdxy]

Prefer it with the spoiler I think.

*Refreshes ebay...*
