  1. if you take it to a wheel specialist you shouldnt have a problem with most types. i know the new mc gard ones are tricky though.
  2. pulled up alongside a blue G plate 16v in my passat hire car today, was with a mate who also has a 16v. We both said 'we've got one of those!' and drove off. further down the road, we realised he may have thought that we were 'more than freinds' :lol:
  3. ahem! and why would there be??? i'm actually paying more now ive moved from bristol to sleepy bath!
  4. my gf has just started driving, she has a 8v mk2 gti, insurance 3rd party was £450.. down to £420 if she added me to her policy! Shes 27 im 24.. couldnt believe i'm actually of some use!
  5. Have you spoken to the garage? i guess you have reciepts for work done or the logbooks stamped? If you want i can go into the garage for you and ask what they know about the car? i'll prob be up that way either this or next thursday? do you have any pics? can i ask any more questions?!
  6. timg60, I know of two black g60's from the bristol area.. one is a k plate in longwell green, the other was always parked around clifton village, looks tidy with new rims/s.s. exhaust and a splitter on the rear bumper. Is this the car you already own or are thinking about buying? I presume already bought, but if its for sale, i'll go take a look for you if you like? HTH, Baz.
  7. bix, most ads only tend to have mob no's these days though.
  8. the one you saw had early spec badges, yours are late. Dont know why they are different if they're the same year though!
  9. Love the way thats written in the 'Started reading the article in Car, but got bored when it mentioned Renault' way!!
  10. ha ha bs1 1hq.. walkabout and san carlo on corn st!! Saved in bookmarks.. good work! :cheers:
  11. thats the guy! he was telling me and sam [blue joe] about how he owned the only rado with a golf front and ibiza rear end. It was soooo hard not to tell him why! :lol:
  12. oh god.. dont tell me its starting soon? :mad: :cry:
  13. Ahh come on guys! i come on here to get away from xfactor/big brother/etc!
  14. i dont think £1500 is unreasonable, but prices have dropped badly over the summer.
  15. eagle F1's are good, but wear very quickly! I had them in 195-45-R15 on my mk3 polo, and wet corners weren't amazing.. but that may be more to do with the car than the tyres!
  16. tbh i think its a lot better than the one at E38 this year. but still...
  17. so its seems im not alone in thinking hes out of his depth! It's funny though, he's so confident, that it actually makes me think maybe he's right?! I'll have to get a vid posted up when the event happens. [edit] if it happens!
  18. My mate is looking at buying a 325 TDS, and reckons it'd kill a G60. Anyone have any opinions of this? the TDS has 142bhp and a 0-60 of 10.1 secs [ish! He wants to take me on at castle combe or santa pod.. even offered to bet £100! Easy money? both cars will be standard engine wise. Baz.
  19. hmm not bad price, id considered casting one of these in platinum! price is crazy though!
  20. looking good though mate. welcome to the forum. 8)
  21. Phil K, non gti's are now the same, it was only early lupos that had different arms.
