Well i thought it would be an idea to make a lil project thread 
on a quiet sleepy morning on the 24th/10/2010 i went to pick up the Lovely Dtub off Ed Doe, after writing off my old car and hearing what was going on in the derv world it seemed like a good idea to see what the crack was about
Ed gave it a clean and this car became mine

you may have spied the fmic in there but it wasnt actually piped in when i got it (nor did it for another few months)
Just about a week after i got it the T2 turbo on there decided to shit itself all over the a27 so new turbo time!
then came the snow  so a very cold turbo change..

then decided to get on to ebay and get the fmic pipes and get that on

I love this car to bits... I miss it tbh...
Epic photo tbh...
Just needs a ph3 front end IMO... That'd finish it off.
Oh, and more boost... but that's a given...

Good to see an official proect back up for this car!
Also I just had to smile at the fact that the engine still looks like its covered in the same 2 liters of used oil mixed with 10 years of grime / dust all over the engine / bay as it did back when it was down here
Good times!

Well dont come anytime to soon, theres a distinct lack of chronic boost around here at the moment, got my engine in bits, Ruans moved away, 205 hasnt got the supercharger finished fitting yet, transit has issues, its a bit of a fail...typical for any diesel around here during winter tbh!

Trouble is one of them has a slight buckle i think as the wheel vibrates a little. They will be on ebay before the day is out
