Thanks

nope


But it's worth FA anyway, btw lying to you insurer is bad, very bad, getting blacklisted would give you some seriosuly high quotes, if you can get a quote.
 
Update:

Check Oil Levels (Gearbox)
Relocate Battery to Boot
Fit Amp
Refit A-Pilar Gauge Pod
Investigate Rear Creaking Noises (Suspension or Handbrake Related)
Thorough Wash Inside and Out
Check Electrical Cables, Re-route if needed

Not done too bad!
 
replace old OEM hose couplings and crappy clamps on intercooler hotpipe with samco and mikalor items

Pressurise system and hope i've found my boost leak
Fit Turbo Elbow
Fit front and rear strut braces
Fit shortshifer
Fit oil catch can
 
My new to do list - buy a new sat nav DVD coz my old one won't work anymore after updating my firmware on the RNS-E.

New tail pipe coz old one looks a bit dull / dirty

maybe get some new audi 18" alloys to replace the standard 17's, then get lowered. - not desperate for that though.
