Update...

Long time, no update. The old axle is removed from the car and disposed. Looked for a replacement axle and ended up buying a whole spare car, a 1.4 106 XSI. Technically sweet running thing, drove it 100km from the selling location. I love short stroke TU-engines.

Holidays in the sun interrupted a bit and the unusually cold wether (it's -15 now, that's more than 10 degrees less than normal for this time of year) makes fiddling with the spare car outside not so tempting. It was nice to enjoy week in +27degC and swin in +23degC seawater. All inc. Did not gain any weight however, due to active holiday.

Anyway something has been done, I changed the side mirrors (to s1) which were painted to body color and paint had started peeling off making them look ugly. Removed some parts from the interior (xsi), some for my use, other for sale. Wheels were also sold. Front seats reused in S2. Improved the lighting in the garage by adding extra 150cm length fluorescent lamps ('loisteputki' in finnish) to the sealing. One just on top of a engine bay, other just above the working table. The lighting is now as good as it gets.
