  1. sorry but as the C-class coupe is based on the C-class saloon,so if anything will be used its going to be the C-class saloon's floorpan,it maybe looks similar if you close your eyes and squint
  2. I'm assuming the 1 yr NCB is meaning that you had an accident a couple of years ago? or was it that you've only been driving a couple of years?
  3. Bill you are being too cynical..........your making even me blush :oops: :lol: I think langdon_tony is purely after a low miler and is just going by the old adage "if you don't ask you don't get"

    vr6 clocks

    the rev counter would be VR specific,not sure on the speedo tho
  5. doubtful tbh..................so come on enlighten us
  6. engine speed sensor will always show when you check it on VAG-com as the car isn't running
  7. pm chubbybrown on the forum paul,IIRC he had a wee problem with his missus's G-plate 16v C a few years back and he replaced a part(that I can't for the life of me remember what it was) and it was all hunky dory
  8. have never liked a single one of their "designs".............there's a few Kahn design Range-Rovers on the go up here and one of them is seemingly always in the local Land-Rover garage due to the Kahn wheels buggering up the running gear...........deffo a case of more money that style/sense
  9. taxi to the kerb sir :-P tho can imagine the replacement cost of a rim if he kerbed it would be a tad high,not to mention the tyre cost(i'm sure you wouldn't want to drive 200mph+ with a kerbed wheel/tyre combo)
  10. when mine went,it was leaking on to the top of the g/box as opposed to being too noisy............it was approx £140 for the part,luckily I still had the used-car warranty in effect when I noticed it,anyway the aux water pumps have come down in price as craigowl sourced one cheaper as he's mentioned above. d'oh should have noticed the dizzy :oops: ...............anyway have you replaced the plug leads recently?,if no,its possibly just co-incidence that they have ended their life just as you are having these coolant problems
  11. Sebrings,std wheels on 1.8 16v and some G60's BBS RM found on most G60's
  12. TSR offered it as a £12k conversion IIRC
  13. aux water pump is making the noise............its possibly leaking,tho i'd imagine it would have shown up during a pressure test,other places to look for leaks are the thermostat housing(on the front of the engine roughly down from the C in DOHC),the missfire could be the coilpack getting wet from a pin-prick leak spraying on to it
  14. about the same as most other 15inch OE wheels.........like others have said they were also found on performance Golf's..........IIRC the mk3 16v was launched with them too
  15. estoril's std wheel on early 2.0 16v's pic from http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=52913 westwoods normally found on later 16v's and 8v's
  16. just makes it more desirable to some............tho I'd not pay any extra for it,unless it had recently been overhauled as its just something else to go wrong it was a dealer-fit option of between £1000-£1500 tho
  17. are they these ones? if so,you make the loom yourself,do a search on the forum and there's a couple of threads about it
  18. yeah...........and they do this religously,to save ppl having a get-out,it should also be calibrated for every tour of duty/shift it does,again they also do this religously now,thats what I found when I was done a year ago
  19. if they are like up here..........within the next week
  20. is it not possible tho that his de-badged grill is suitable for early C slam panels?
  21. Camera partnership's are still able to do you for speeding even tho they are not technically Police Officers,all they are doing is gathering evidence as it were
  22. cheers Glenn.................on the case now :D
  23. where did you get yours from again Glenn? you got a link?
  24. tell them the paint code,the $tealer would have to order it in at anyrate I'd imagine at least at Halfords they should do it there and then.......dependant on the size of Halfords you go to of course
