It's nearly finished!
There doesn't seem to be much sag in the suspension... |

A very big thank you has to go to Steve and James without whose help this couldn't have been achieved so...

Massive thanks also have to go to all the guys at Moto-Craft in Leeds of course. I really can't recommend them highly enough!

Yes Andy....
Congratulations mate!!
That cappo looks really clean Andy. Give yourself a pat on the back with that one. Looks fresh as the daisy it's sitting on! ha ha
I see some early ebay bargains too I remember those door sills ha ha
and you need some badges!!
Lastly, questions!
1. Ask them about the Heartland Kit? Any issues and how hard was it to blend it inn? The skirts look difficult to fit when I test fitted them.
2. Whats the difference like with the BC coilovers????
3 You got a pic of all the lights working mate? Are they hard to fit?do I need to buy anything extra?
4. Where is that spoiler from!? thats class!!
5. I know you like them wheels but they arent my cup of tea.... sorry mate.
6. Pm me on this one. Who did it and any contact details? |

1. Ask Steve, if he's stopped rocking yet that is
2. On the softest setting they are on a par with standard comfort wise and then you can obviously adjust them as hard as you like
3. I haven't but I will.
4. Audi TT
5. Do I strike you as the type of person who cares what others think? How long did I keep the white lip spoiler on just because people kept asking when I was going to paint it? lol

Awesome work Andy, that's very nice. Thanks for the pics !
I have to say I don't like the bodykit and the wheels, but I think the spoiler and rear light are a very good choice. |

Wow, really nice job. Thanks for putting the pics up.
Those lights and the spoiler look great. Really impressed with the fit of the shut lines round the lights nd bumper too.
You should definately keep those wheels though - they look awesome (see if a bit of reverse psychology works with this one...) Or maybe give them to Steve as a thank you gift?! |

Wow, that looks amazing - complete freshen up!
How did you get rid of the spot on the drivers side wheelarch? Seems a common problem.
Six-Sixty braces look good!
Are the rear lights homebrew or take-off / heartland / etc?
Did the TT spoiler need much tweaking to fit?
Good work - rejuvenated cappo! |

A lot more than just a freshen up I think you will agree
They cut out all of the rust and welded in new metal. No matter how hard I look I can't see the repair They also did the seem at the front of the wing which is another common area.
The braces are amazing both to look at and the difference they make. I haven't managed to find the time to go for a drive without the roof yet but if my experiences with the roof on are anything to go by it's going to be fantastic. Everything feels so solid.
The lights are Fairfax copies of the original SPL ones as far as I can tell. The lights themselves are the Hella mix and match ones.
The TT spoiler fitted straight on. |

Nice!!! yeah - much more than a freshen up!
That repair looks briliant. Got to get mine done at some point soon.
I had the braces from Smart51 and they were good.
I'll keep an eye out for TT spoilers - is it for a mk1 TT? |

Yep, they certainly know their stuff and do it to a very high standard.
The spoiler is indeed off the Mk1 TT. You can get aftermarket replicas but I went for a brand new original off ebay. The replicas might be lighter than the original ones though as they weigh a ton! |

So a little while ago I was contacted by Practical Performance car as they wanted to do a feature featuring some 3 cylinder cars in an article about the K6A powered Caterham. I was asked not to post any photos to the forum until after the magazine had gone off sale. As the next one should have hit the shops now I can now post these
