She is Fixed, man I am so chuffed to have her back, the Dizzy was knackered. Even more relieved that it wasn't anything more serious. So all systems go to save funds for mods that haven't been done yet.

Hello, mods have had to take a back seat due to lack of cash, so the only mod that will most likely be done,as Ive already got them, is fitting the lowering springs. We need to get a new alternator as every now and then I lose all power to all the electrics and the battery goes dead. It may be the belt or the leads, or both, so will be concentrating on that for a bit.
Sorry I havent been around had a few problems with the PC and also time just flies by lately. Just one new pic to add. The Rado needs a good wash and polish and will eventually need a re-spray. Have a great summer guys, Ill be back as soon as I have any mods done

Back again to post new pics of the Rado, its been slammed by 40mm. Cant go too low as I live in Speed hump land. Feels strange to drive at the mo, but Ill get used to it. Its going in to have an engine and gear box mount replaced and the hydraulic lifters will be sorted and the cams changed on the advice of the guy that owns the place we use ( Midland VW in Cannock, England). He is great he wont make you spend needless money unlike some places who will, and :P he owns an absolutley gorgeous Audi RS4, sounds mint. Anyway pics are below for those that are interested

Had to put the original grill back on as the other one got broken, but with the new bonnet bra it doesn't look too bad. Have coilovers now on the back and some to go on the fronts, they just need a clean and lubrication and Im after some new discs before I have them fitted. A pic of her on the move from a day out today
