Thats a Line up right there

 

[Moggy]

Gave LG a proper clean and made a list of what’s needed. Most stuff just broke or drilled through by idiots instead of finding an actual way to route things

We’ll get there

I assume all the R parts internally such as grommits/looms/whathaveyou are itentical to a boggo R26?

Most of the stuff in the car, is basic spec. And looms if not downgraded just aren’t plugged in

I’m lucky as this one doesn’t have climate so it’s mainly basic looms so a trip to the scrap yard or even Renault as basic model stuff is usually still plentiful

Did a bit as it’s mot tomorrow

Tyres haven’t liked being parked up for 3 years




Rear brake pads either



But I think she looks better back on black wheels




Fingers x’d for the morning

 

[andybond]

Better on red for sure.

 

[Moggy]

Better on red for sure.

Mmmmm yes and no

Good job I’ve got more sets of wheels than @Brigsy does

 

[Moggy]

And today, in the presence of a proper vosa man as my mot guy was having new equipment installed



This happened



Slight panic when I couldn’t find 5th or 6th gear, on to find that last time the engine was out at a well known tuner, they diagnosed that it needed a new gearbox, when actually they hadn’t fitted the cables the correct routed way

And with that a quick drink of some of shell’s finest and 36 miles down!

So does it drive/feel any different to your two other R26r’s??

Bit stiffer cos of the suspension
And brings the power in a bit too hard for my liking and knowing the chocolate rods in them are like

But, nope. All the same bar tiny differences
