Today I have been mostly....

[bluestreak56]

Stripped the seats out of the scirocco, good inside and out clean with a wax too ready for Ultimate Dubs tomorrow..

I also use the 2 planks of wood method for jacking up. Where exactly did you place the jack "centrally" to allow you to put axle stands under both jack points, i've been trying to figure this out for a while...

EDIT: typo

Absolutely centre line of the car just behind the diff is a hard point where two fairly heavy duty tie rods bolt to the chassis - my trolley jack has a cup that will just allow the two bolts (the bolts that hold the ends of the tie rods) to fit inside, so it's pretty secure and lifts perfectly.

Washed the car yesterday......is a good girl

Excellent. Mine normally is clean on the outside and a tip inside....

I would love to have been working on a car today....instead I was stuck behind a desk at work :thumbsdown:

Crap - I'm lucky enough that most of my weekends are mine - to wash the car.... Although when my neighbour came home she was jaw dropped at me taking the wheels off to clean them - she then kindly explained that I need a hobby or a girlfriend... Haha...

Hour's road trip (top down, of course) to Dalby Forest and went on a four-mile hike through the woods. The temp was 15-16 degrees and it was lovely and sunny

Today I've mainly been fitting sports seats from an XFR into my XF.
Cool ebay find of a full interior from a less than 12 month old car yielding these seats that are way over £5k a pair, for a few hundred and to follow a complete piano black interior and set of door cards:

Photos don't do justice - 18 way adjustment seats including inflatable side bolsters, electric head restraint, Peltier air heating and cooling system.

I drove my zed to lakeside (large shopping centre), bought a few bits, drove home. Lunch with friends. Went to the gym, to use the jacuzzi, steam & sauna. Now sitting in front of the tele relaxing, whilst browsing for ideas on kitting out the garage.

Thanks Sars and Gannet
Now I have to tutor Mrs CJ in setting an 18 way seat - that will be a challenge. Thanks for seat memory function is all I can say

 

[Adamski]

Seats looking good

I think even I could get confuse with 18 settings. Too hard to get the perfect setting....

She obviously doesn't understand cars and the fact that they are a hobby! :driving:

Yeah, but it was quite funny when she stares open mouthed at me with the car on axle stands and me working a wheel on a table - slow shaking head walk away - was quite funny.
