Six-cylinder Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 I collected S2 Sovereign from my favourite garage today. It has had light service, auto choke clean and a safety check as I don't MOT my 40+ year old cars.

Tadhg Tiogar Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 A close friend of mine died suddenly on Tuesday morning.

Cento16v Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Is this a regular thing? Are you guys all camping somewhere together? Can you come in a modern car, I have modern diagnostic shenanigans I can bring to diagnose stuff with, whats it all about 😃 I don't trust the Activa enough to take it anywhere far until I've put new brakes and spheres on it 😬 Six-cylinder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spurious Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I may be along in the afternoon. The Audi is still on the ramp in the garage, it's going to run over until the morning at this rate, when it's going to be put back together. The tie rod end put up a fight and needed 'encouragement' to get off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
