Hmmm. As always there are plenty of things I would like to do, and many that won't get done! But basically:

- 1. G60 15" steel wheels from the dealership...
2. ... and then a refurb of the BBS alloys at A1 Renovations, Wolverhampton.
3. Coilovers!
4. Powerflow custom 'zorst with hidden pipe.
5. Euro-spec 130mm wing mirror on the driver's side.
6. 2002-spec crystal side repeaters (still haven't put them on!).
7. EDIT: forgot to add that I have a B&M short shifter under my bed to be fitted!

Replace the Escort (daily runner) while it's still worth something. Chances are the replacement will be something from the VAG camp.
When the new workshops built:
Strip the Mk2 to a shell and rebuild using as many new parts as possible - engine choice still to be decided, thinking about the Seat 1.4 unit on a GT box and cam. Budgetting about £1000 for this.
Bodge the space ranger back together as needed, it's had the same engine in for 6 months now, so I'd give that about 6 months before the head gasket blows given my track record.
Drink a beer whilst looking at the small ranger and tell anyone who's nearby how much it's going to kick ass when I get round to it - Just like I did last year.

For me its full interia retrim with recaros
Tasty ice install
lots of body cosmetics (audi door handles, boot smoothing, trick repeaters, arial removed, petrol flap smoothed, jacking points smoothed etc etc)
Making the new engine and bay a bit more pretty
and a respray (im gonna try and do all this work myself to save some pennies (except for the respray)
)
All this between shows and a mk2 golf project
i think i may be being a tad too ambitious (sp?)
