Don't you just love it when your car works...
6 weeks ago I parked my car up at work in Norfolk and blasted off for a spot of work in the Arabian sunshine. Only prep carried out was a quick wax with AG HD wax and I connected a solar panel to trickle charge the battery.
Arrived back at my car early hours of Monday morning expecting to jump start it, but no, fired first time! Great result as I'd been travelling 20 hours and still had my 1 1/2 hour drive back to Lincoln.
Looked a sorry state but a quick wash and the beading from the wax is still as good as when I left. I love this car!!

What do you do if you're bored and working the graveyard shift? Take some pics of course!

Firstly start with a good clean

And find a suitable location

I thought I recognised the car. Are you on the Lincs VAG FB group? If your interested there's a track day at Blyton park organised by LVSR on 7/6/13. It should be a fun day with lots going on on and off track. Hopefully I get chance to meet you at a local meet some point.

Plan on heading up there for the day, probably won't be on the track though :(
I was on that group, not sure if I'm still on there, have to check facebook! Not so much in the way of meets round here really

They had a meet a couple of weeks back but I couldn't make it. We'll have to make sure these a Seat presensnts next time. They sound like a good bunch of lads.
Are you based at Conningsby?

Yeh have to get over there sometime. I'm at Marham in Norfolk, so I'm usually away all week and just around at the weekend.
