Re: Drizz Developments

Well the Golf arrived like this:













Then the height test:









Steve started cleaning the wheels while i got it on the ramp:











Old vs New:











And back down:











Went for a drive and it rubbed everywhere:









So back on the ramp for a lift up. All done and clean wheels:











Much better and very little rubbing now. Anyway the Dubbers turned up:







And got Valeting :













I made a rush job on the badge. Needs doing again, too much dust:







And all done. Just need to clean the seats this week:











Next job is to fit the HID's and the stereo.....

Re: Drizz Developments

Well the 3rd new arrival, erm, arrived yesterday so we did what it does best straight away!
This is the beast:











And its emence 3 valve power unit:







But....................
It got stuck, once! But that was in 2wd. Pressed the 4wd switch and on we went. It just wouldnt get stuck. I know theyre not the toughest lanes we did but it was seriously boggy in places. We were well impressed!!









Granted i couldnt do what John could:









But Johns broke, and mine didnt LOL:







And again at the petrol station. Johns= £45, Justy= £5 LOL:







Plans are to lift her slightly, Sump guard, and strip her out.....

A Justy. You know it makes sense.....
