i saw my first Golf Limited in person the other day...
vr6storm replied to Red=Fast's topic in General Car Chat
well not strictly true..........limited's go for around the £7-£8k mark in britain.........a friend of mine just sold his limited in the summer for under £8k IIRC and his was AFAIK the only RHD(conversion) in the UK -
here's to the next 200k :D
-
pretty sure tbh the part kev is meaning is on the later VR style engines in the later Golf's ie V6 4-motion's

i dunno about down south but(pretty sure this is UK-wide)............up here in bonnie Scotland there is new legislation regarding disposal fo cars...........it has to be a bona-fide car-scrapper that picks it up now...........as i asked my in-law's just recently(they are in Waste management btw) about borrowing one of their skip-lorry's and picking up a m8's scrapper and was told that cos they don't have the licence for picking cars up that i couldn't do it
-
well tbh it shouldn't be connected to the elec.adjustment as the heated mirror glass is switched on/off with the heated rear window

depending if it is truly minted inside and out.........IMO you're looking at between £1500 and £2500 max as the miles aint doing it any favours (although the mileage is just below average for the year etc)

there was thread on a week or so ago regarding some dodgy Corrado "specialist" which just happened to be Expert Technik who were also going out of business next week etc so just a case of putting 2 and 2 together :wink: ...............the thing is ive only heard about this company in just the past 3 months and their claims to be a "corrado specialist".............fair enough if you were refering to Autotek as being "corrado specialists" afterall for a few years they were the place to find decent quality examples of C's(tho admittedly optimisticly priced ones)...........i just wonder if there are/is any satisfied Corrado buyer that has bought from Expert Technik :?:

engine trouble....... fuel pump? what could it be? -updated
vr6storm replied to bighairymuppet's topic in Archive
well there is the outside chance that it might just need the filter...........and tbh if u were fitting a new pump you'd be as well changing the filter anyway................so change the filter 1st and see if it makes a difference :wink: -
IMHO leave it on!..................its there for a purpose afterall :wink:

vr6storm replied to bighairymuppet's topic in Archive
IIRC the valver has 2 fuel pumps................one in the tank and one "outside" of the tank.....perhaps one is dying?.......i take its recently had a fuel filter to eliminate that? -
it wasn't expert technik you bought the car from by any chance?
-
hmmmm i think its about time parts and PRICES were posted up and this moved to the parts for sale thread...........so could you please start posting prices ASAP and myself or one of the other mods will move it for you :wink:
-
yeah totally agree with you there emax the Fiat Coupe 20V Turbo is indeed one fast mutha.........in a straight line and a C VR6 will be hard pushed to match it................on a straight :wink:
-
just the joys of heat exchangers etc :roll:
-
marty hasn't really got internet access too much tbh...............as for wheels he's got some planned but first i think he's getting some minor wee cosmetics done to it(stonechips etc).....i can tell you one thing tho...........he'll cherish that car and keep it well clean :wink:

My new run'a'bout and possible future project car...
vr6storm replied to biggerbigben's topic in General Car Chat
8) nice one -
RESULT!!...........a mate has just bought a P-plate Golf VR this month too......he paid near £4.5k too..........although it was pretty well loaded having Climate control and leather........ I've just sold my P plate golf VR6 (well a few weeks ago) in satin silver with leather and climate for £4.5k. Could it be the same car? if it was in manchester and a baldy dude that bought it :wink:
-
not sure that you'll need to uprate the fuel pump for supercharging Joe...........best to ask all those with chargers on their VR's.............
-
nope...........the logbook only says VR6 too............

funnily enough Autocar magazine(in fact it was a Front cover headline in 88) reckoned the old Skoda Rapide handled like a 911 :shock: :shock: :shock: well they both have engines in their arses :wink:
