Audi changed from cast to pressed steel arms part way through production and seems the pressed ones are shite

jeez those front lower arms are a renowned failure mode on the A2 by all accounts

@eddyramrod

if you are unsure of what can and can't be repaired they have a guide on the auto glass website, but if its a crack rather than a chip then I'd say its no go

Now that's really funny timing. I only googled TAG59R a few days ago to see if it was around. When I was about 15 or 16 I used to help out the service crew for my friends dad who rallied a mk2 Escort up in Yorkshire region and I googled the two reg numbers I could remember which were his and TAG59R which used to win the 1300 class pretty much every rally. How bizarre it should pop up on AS a few days later

505 GTI Manuel estate seen at Goodwood yesterday no price but a phone number in window (resolution on here blurs the number so message me if you want it)

nice but pricey Cherry Coupe

yeah 47 is no age at all. All very sad

thanks although I was just posting someone elses Facebook post. I did know Paul through the XM forum and Facebook and had met him at Citroen events but it was one of his actual friends who's post I used here He will be a huge loss to the XM community though for his knowledge and his hoard of spares

of all the cars I ever owned this is the one I'd love one more drive of

bloody hell. nice. my first car was a mk2 Escort 2 door in Sahara beige which I used to drive around thinking I was Ari Vatanen. If you had told me I'd be 46 and never have owned another I'd never have believed you

It does apply but I live in the zone anyway so I have to pay to move off my street regardless

Given the ULEZ has done for the Bromley Pageant this year I'm tempted to go to on the Enfield Pageant instead , either as a visitor or maybe enter one of the cars (Just need to clear up with them if you can enter for just one of the days which isn't clear on the website) https://www.whitewebbsmuseum.co.uk/news/enfield-pageant-of-motoring-2024 Anyone been before? Is it worth a look? Ta

nice looking car and bargain price for the fun factor If the hedgehog is anything like the E46 it's not a dash out job but one of the fixings is an absolute fucker to get to. I ended up upside down in the footwell with various extensions and wobble joints trying to orietate what I was seeing on an endoscope

defintiely a 94 Simtek, the 95 wasn't quite so sleek and pretty.

Some dreadful news from the classic Citroen community Paul was a nice bloke, generous with his time, knowledge and spare parts and a big reason a huge amount of XMs and Xantias are still on the road RIP

Ha I didn't even see that! He didn't seem to worried just said it could do with some underseal

I thought I'd better check today when in May the MOT is due so I can try and be proactive and get it booked early. Turned out it was due today. Doh Luckily they had a 4pm slot so now has 12m MOT. Yay

mine too, it was working when I got it but stopped at Lake Geneva I did see a YouTube of Dollywobbler/Hubnut fixing his but when I took mine apart the failure mode was different and couldn't be repaired
