  1. keep the little plastic bits!! they always come in handy!
  2. That's lhotte from HIC. She has a profile on here and E38.. And a boyfriend :lol:
  3. As long as you have money for a decent 993 its a nobrainer.
  4. whatever you do, don't go for not reporting it! is it a show cage or approved? bolted or welded?
  5. Well as i havent yet started a thread for my VR.. I bought the car with a lumpy idle which I still need to cure. Hoping it's MAF related as i bought a replacement. Currently the cars sat outside the house as I changed the heater matrix and then found the direction box is stuck on cold. Took the dash out for a second time and need to source a replacement box. I've not been actively looking but should really get round to it!

    17" bbs?

    I reckon they're BBS RG's. Common in 15/16" but 17"s are very rare. Can be forged or mag. Here's the only link i could find to prove a 17" set" http://orange_auction-shop.weloveshopping.com/shop/showproduct.php?shopid=217594&pid=16066737&productid=s019
  8. GSF are great and generally good quality. i would always go for the expensive option on most things for a rado, especially ones i dont want to do again. for a 'normal' car, ie the mrs has a 1.0 arosa, id buy cheaper disks/pads etc.
  9. perfect! :norty: i'd move out there if i could find a decent job and was allowed to stay. sick of the uk!
  10. ha! you know me.. always ready for a change. I don't really like the VR6 if i'm honest.. It's defo an old mans car :lol:
  11. indeed.. 3rd UK car i know of and I have been looking! I'm a bit gutted I dont have the money for it at the moment, especially with it being a G60!
  12. the first guys badge has sold for £50!
  13. i remeber this 7 year old thread first being posted.. middle school for me i think! :lol:
  14. thanks for the heads up! its possible to join online, just follow the links on the site. not easy though! cheers again
  15. halfords are very expensive at retail price. at trade price they're comparible to gsf etc. if i need bulbs or wipers they're loads closer for me than gsf so i go there. if i needed discs/pads/filters i'd make the journey. in other news i need a new trade card... mine split in three being used as a makeshift ice scraper the other night. perhaps i'll treat myself to a real one when i go in :lol:
  16. the vw badge is sunk into the rear panel so wont sit flush with just the tabs removed. the corrado badge will be fine. the only way will be to have another panel sunk back in, but that'll involved welding etc so will be very difficult to get perfect. other option is to look at any other vw you can think of to see if they did a similar badge not sunk, but i cant think of any :(
  17. [stalker]i just googled him, theres only 1 dyfrig walters on 192.com so possible the other links are him - linkedin etc.. worth a try if you're that interested! have a look at the friends reunited link, theres a photo if you remember what he looks like![/stalker]
  18. did you try fitting the whole mirror or just the small metal piece? Best bet is to glue on the small piece the mirror clips in to. Leave it for a day to dry and then fit the mirror.
  19. how many owners? my guess is it was his company car and then he bought it from them.
  20. V5 engine hey.. interesting.
  21. In the interest of equality this is getting quoted! :lol: Congrats guys, sound slike a cracking day.
  22. that rear spoiler is top of steves 'things i'll never do again in my life' list :lol: I think it took him just under a million hours in total.
  23. Such a simple mod, but looks soooooooooooo much better imo.
