Amazed there are any left, the ditches were hungry for that car

They handled so well, but were hilariously laggy, but like a mini-rocket when on boost. The problem wasn't the car, it was the drivers.

For sure....and any rain with that little bugger and its boost

Well he didn't get the 5 turbo. So it means I can take my time to get bits of the silver Activa for my blue one. Only thing is the blue Activa seems to be playing hard ball just as I get ready to fix one problem two more appear
1st the new exhaust system is blowing at the mid section so going to weld that as its cheaper than sending it back.
2nd The blue bugger seems to have decided to go into firm mode and is bouncing about all over the place.
Well these things are sent to try us I suppose

Sounds normal Activa to me....

[holmedog]

Gone back to normal now whatever normal is for the Activa.

Work to start this week on the blue Activa. First new front brake discs and pads as they started grinding a bit on the way back from prestatyn. Then the more pressing job of the rear Activa ram. Started on stripping the other one off the silver one then had to break off to do fixes on the wife's ford focus so time to crack on.

[Stickyfinger]

Do you need to borrow my scraper seal shroud puller for the ram job ?
Have you ordered the leak off seals ?, they took 10 days for mine from Citroen, I thus have a spare at the moment which you could use then replace later.
I also think you can guarantee the lower bush will need replacing....A Peugeot one is available on a two day from the dealers if you wish to use rubber.

[holmedog]

I'm hoping for a straight forward swap as the ram on the silver Activa looks good no leaks very clean.
The whole of the silver car looks very sound apart from the rust which I will hopefully tackle next year as I don't really want to let it go. At the moment though the blue Activa needs a few donor parts of it.

Now i really do need to do the brakes on blue thunder as my little boy now calls it. Left it parked at work over the weekend and when i moved it today the it went with a bang as the caliper was sticking slightly. The problem is i can't get it in my garage as the silverfox is parked right outside the doors with a flat battery and flat tyre. Just my look i go away on holiday and everything is going wrong as i am ready to start on sorting blue thunder,oh well all good things and all.

It'll all come right soon Holmdog... It's how life is....

Just hold on in there
