Pictured here beside my neighbour's MK2 Polo* The size difference is interesting *The Polo is owned by a young lad across from us, who inherited it from his grandfather, and he's been running it as a daily for a couple of years now. In honour of his grandad he will not restore it or 'improve' it at all, choosing to keep the mismatched wheel trims and missing trim bits as they were when his grandad had it. He's only done essential mechanical jobs, such as welding, carburettor overhaul and head gasket. I have mentioned autoshite to him before, I think he'd fit it well here!

Missed a couple

More Turkey spotting

No, that's Violet. Claire is my fiancée No cortinas yet. I didn't know either, I'm glad though More spots

The Fiat Regatta style saloons I saw yesterday are Tofaş Doğans , they are the Turkish Fiat 131 successor.

Claire went to grab a coffee this morning, and took some pics.

Hey everyone I'm currently in Turkey having an operation on my downstairs, but enough about that....

Picked up these today, Pontiac Fiero wheels. Just gotta get them balanced and then try fitting them.

Fuck saving this again! https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1451554655584590/

We've been on a bit of a drive now, so here's the list of things to sort: Slight 'eek' from Front nearside brake caliper. Will dismantle and reassemble at some point to see if that helps. Rattle over bumps from nearside rear - exhaust mount maybe? There was an exhaust rubber in a packet in the boot, hopefully that's the solution. Boot key sticks. TADTM, it's a VW thing. Boot struts knackered - on order Radio locked. Removal keys on order to get serial number Random temp warning when cold occasionally. Reset works, but may be a sensor. Hunting at idle, sometimes. No warning light yet, will get the codes read at some point. Electric windows a bit slow, probably lack of use. Other than that, it's functional, ULEZ compliant and decent on fuel. 21 quid a month tax is a bit steep though.

Sadly we've had our first falling out due to me leaving the interior light on! Got jump started by a neighbour but as I went to pull away..... Oh. I didn't want to turn it off, so soldiered on with really heavy steering. Turned it off on the A127 and did a rolling bump start and all is well now. 🤦‍♀️
