piece of piss, there is a screw under the rubber seal round the fuel cap, then just unclip the rest of the pipe work

that space will be filled with a 2.7 bi-tubro audi s4 engine..........
nah sadly not, the way i want to do the floor means to resheet it in metal, cant afford carbon. not really done for weight saving, more for the location of my fuel supply! removing the sunroof aswell, that will be replaced with some carbon.
really shouldnt have dug the plasma cutter out, its an awesome bit of kit..........

He's worse than me, I had to stop him before he cut too much out.
I'm sure if I hadn't been there, he would have cut the complete inner rear quarters out on both sides
I think I've gone soft in my old age
