A idea stolen from another forum I use, post up what you have done to your car today with pics or without:)
Checke the anti freeze concentration on the SR and Sport, Sport2 is drained, plus a few other toys, "winter is a coming,winter is a coming, winter is a coming, winter is a coming"
Painted to front knuckles satin black ready for new bearings to be fitted and five stud hubs and 'scotched' some wheel centres up ready for paint
Bugger all, whipped the cover back last night to get my satnav out, and my rac card, and have a quick spy to see if its still clean and dry under my cover = yes its perfect under there, very happy :d
Dusted the back window off with my Calafornia Duster, looked at it for a bit, thought about putting the cover on it which has been off the car since Billing. Did sod all else to it and locked up the garage up again.
the cover is worth more then the car, thats what you should be checking :pQuote:

I drove it
So today i had my 1st frosty morning (so frosty i had to heat up my key to get in) i thought i had best change the anti freeze as i dont know how long its been in there, then i gave it a full service including dizzy, cap, and leads for peace of mind and sorted out the rocker gasket that looks like its been leaking for the last 10 years. Next week i plan on fitting my koni adjustables, refurbing my sr steels and picking up my 185/55/14's that i won for £21 bargain
Like David hasselhoff in BaywatchQuote:

nothing to it but bought a set of gsi front seats and had 2 suffer a 8 hour round trip with my fussy toddler. good thing i love her ha
Sat in it, realized I had a steaming hang over, wound down the window, smoked a roll up, went indoors
:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: apart from wrap it round a lamp post smoking is possibly the worst thing you can do in your car imoQuote:

I would say taking a crap in there would be worse than smoking tbh mate
Window was down, parked in my garage, plus I felt so hungover at that point I needed a sit down
I don't smoke in there all the time, driving and smoking is a no no. This is the second roll up I've had in it, first being after I started it for the very first timeQuote:

Went for a drive to check the heater works, when I started there was ice inside the windows, 10 minutes later the window was clear but....I did not have the rubber seal for the firewall so i nearly poisened myself with engine fumes..yum yum.
nothing...... but i went out to drop a friend off with my brother at a local village, and came back half an hour later with a 1300l mk1 f rej red four door saloon:

not sure if i'm going to break it or sell as a whole yet.
think you get the prize for doing most, you got a whole car!
Ive done somthing similar to that, i went to a scrap yard i used to work in to get some bits for my mates mk2 golf gti and bought tbe whole car fokk it for an mot which it passed with 1 advisory and broke it earlyer this year myself and made alot more money than i spent on it
Moved it out the way to tidy the garage. Got in and out Dukes Of Hazzard style as there was too much junk round it lol Ended up painting the bonnet after I'd cleared some space though.
