Dolly's Mk2
« on: 07 April 2012, 21:46 »
Well this is my fourth mk2, always regretting selling the others so had abit of a heart over head moment and brought this.





Already sorted the slack gear change and the clutch pedal, mechanically very good only an oil leak to fix, body is solid as in sills ect, but the general condition of the body is... well its 27 years worth of car park dings  :rolleyes:

was forsale on this forum last week, sold my sensible old Man BMW on the saturday and brought this on the Sunday. Never owned a car older than me before  :grin:

Got to get to grips with this K jet malarky, pulls well after 2.5k but doesnt seem to like driving slowly  :grin:

sometimes struggles to start and when it does it misfires for a few seconds, guessing its a fueling issue. its all good fun  :smiley:

o and i aint doing anything stupid to this like putting a G60 into it, standard all the way, although i feel the original shocks are a little worn which is kind of ruining the spirited driving down lanes side of it.  :undecided:
