    Whats that Eric?????
  2. It's usually the first 3 months if it goes wrong I think, but I might be corrected. Just depends on how hard you can fight your corner! Also depends on the warranty and shop policy which should be clearly displayed!
  3. Can it be a for sale - if it is actually the DVLA selling them????

    new grille time

    Isn't yours a Rieger one like mine! As in the 3 slat with built in eyebrow??? If so leave it like that - If not get one of them!!!!
  5. Pleased for you!!!!! Should be fun! I wish I had paid someone else to do mine, you never know I might get it finished that way.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. Nice to see them at last!!! I can only just remember the day you showed me them on msn - that was a long time ago !!!
  7. Well I don;t mind if you want to nominate it Jim!!!!
  8. Just thought I'd finally add these pics courtesy of Jim that were taken after a show last year!!!!
  9. Well I've had word today that the head is now finished!!!!!! So hopefully will be back on either Saturday or Monday! Also have another surprise mod on the way!!! Not engine (as such!) related but a nice surprise for all!!!!!!
  10. I wouldn't say it was a likely fault but if there are no other leaks and the water is actually coming from the block - then it could well be a core plug!
  11. Could be a core plug??? Otherwise check all around as that could just be where it appears to be coming from due to the path of the water, so chack all of the hose connections and the plastic connectors that bolt onto the block all around the sides of the engine!
  12. I'm not entirely sure - but I think you'll struggle to get that width of wheel without it protruding from the arches!!!!! I also think you'd struggle getting that size wheel ie 9x17 to fit without major rubding issues! You'd have to have VERY solid suspension!
  13. Might have to come visit on way back from getting the car mapped and chipwizards when it finally happens!!!!!!
  14. Sounds Fantastic as I've been after doing this for a long time!!!!! GOOD WORK FELLA!!!! PS: Any Pics??? - And if you PM one of the mods they'll add this to the knowledge base!!!!!
  15. I NEVER count how much I have spent - Believe me - it's REALLY scary!!!!!
  16. I think it's possibly quite right! The VR6 is quite a refined (for it's age) and often described on here as a motorway muncher! The car that has what it's missing I think is the G60 - Aggression!!! However, unmodified the G60 lacks the power to be considered in an article like that!
  17. Really you should run either one or the other! I think you can get away with it but not advisable!
  18. I believe the Maclaren F1 had the corrado wing mirrors on it! Nice that it's only performance cars that seem to have them. Unlike the old lotus esprit that had door handles from a Morris Marina!!
  19. Not that expensive from VAG if you want the originals

    clutches.

    Best ones to get are direct from VAG as I understand.
  21. Yeah exactly what I'm doing with mine. Once the head is bakc on then it'll be 1500 mile run in- then off to Chip Wizards in Manchester for the map!
