At least you were there to see it, he might've driven off otherwise and you'd have to pay yourself!

How much can you fit in the back of a C?
blackcat replied to gradeAfailure's topic in General Car Chat
At Christmas we had.....two cat carriers, a puppy pen (folded), a microwave (in a box), 2 or three biggish bags, a double duvet, 4 pillows, and various other pieces of crap slotted in to small spaces!! -
oh my god, that is unbelievable!!! Talk to Trading Standards and find out your rights.

When I wrote to them with a complaint about something, they didn't seem to care then!! :roll: -
Ever regretted a modification? (helpful guide perhaps)
blackcat replied to OSV's topic in General Car Chat
The 'mod' that I regret the most is the little go faster stripe that I put on the passenger side door (using the low wall, next to the drive) :oops: -
sounds like a good deal to me....... VR's really aren't holding their price at the moment, get in there while they're cheap!

A couple of weeks ago a withheld number kept ringing me over about 4 days. Whenver I answered it hung up, but if I didn't answer it kept ringing. Was really starting to annoy me so the next day I was going to ring Vodafone but it stopped and hasn't happened since. Wierd, huh?

Corrado Spotting! Was it you? [Archive February 06]
blackcat replied to mistrall's topic in General Car Chat
Saw a red 'rado on the A46 in Old Sodbury this morning about 10.15 ish, I was in the police van behind, you turned left towards Chipping Sodbury at the crossroads. -
Er, I haven't removed the slam panel on a 'rado but on my golf it was easy. Mind you, I had a Haynes telling me where all the bolts were! IIRC, the bumper/splitter needs to come off, remove lights and then undo the bolts on the slam panel. Easily a 1 day job.

lol, it's normally the other way round! :lol:

Yeah, I had the same problem. The key wouldn't turn so I had VW change the ignition barrel. After that the key turned but the car wouldn't start because they had broken the immobiliser. In the end they just cut loads of wires and by passed the immobiliser and left loads of cut wires just hanging around :bad-words:
-
LOL, cheers. Had to have a new water pump :? but apart from that it passed the MOT with flying colours. No advisory things at all. :)

Haynes says ' the glow plug control unit is located behind the facia, above the main relay box.' Is this what you're after?

I'll look in my haynes when I get home and see if it says in there

Corrado Spotting! Was it you? [Archive January 06]
blackcat replied to bristolbaron's topic in General Car Chat
What trap?? I don't get it? I only vaguely saw the number plate, it started with L4 ... but knew there was a member on here called L4 PRG so I thought I'd post that and see if it was him or not -

I used it when I had a clio that was running a bit lumpy, seemed to work ok

You have definately made the right decision to buy a VR6 (yes I'm baised too) As people have already said, check out the buying guide on here for what to look out for etc. 5-6K will get you a excellent car, or spend a little less and then spend some money doing it up, depends on your preference really. 5-6k would probably get you a Storm if you want one. Storms have been discussed to death on here so a quick search will probably throw up all you need to know! Oh and yes there are a few females on here (it's been a while since someone called me a lady though! :wink: )
