  1. How awful :! i actually felt embarrassed to show the pic to anyone :gag: Also can anyone show me the cover of last sprinter mag, as i dont' seem to get them, the membership card took ages to arrive too. Not looking for an answer really, just wanted to share this :lol:

  4. some days i think i'd rather have a normal cam belt than a chain, all this palava about it.
  5. comes up all the time on here. i'm on 194k and nothing been replaced on the engine, i think i've got the point where i think if something did happen i wouldn't be too upset at having to replace the whole engine anyway i'd hate to spend the time/money doing my chains, only for something else to break internally a few months later due to the mileage
  6. whereabouts in essex are you again? i have this http://www.hdtools.co.uk/cart/index.php ... ductId=604 and you would be welcome to borrow it, i'm near saffron walden

    What earth?

    is the noise always there, or does it slowly build up/accumulate with time?
  8. Can you all do me a favour and vote for car no.4 Fiona Kindness, She is a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of mine and deserves to win http://www.totalcarmagazines.co.uk/idol ... L-2010.htm Doesn't take very long :clap:
  9. You just have to get used to driving it. I found them a bit tame on the test drives as was nervous and not my car. Once you get used to giving it some stick it really moves I think that is what makes it great. Can be a calm cruiser or plenty urgent and noisy if your in the mood Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
  10. I will check mine out. They are kw1 and fitted then in Dec 09 Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
  11. I had that problem. Until I bought a new headunit that came with that mount Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
  12. tough choice, i love the green but don't like cream interiors. so i'd have to pick blue. OR Classic green vr6 with Black leather recaros & aircon (which is what i picked)
  13. just browing the world wide web and came across this http://www.eurotuner.com/featuredvehicl ... to_03.html
  14. VW don't make performance cars :( even when ford had the escort they had the cosworth
  15. do them black one side and leave one side silver, see what happens
  16. agree, they suit the colour of car already
  17. I have had enquiry's about the OEM connectors I have, but no follow ups. Zak i think i had one from you, as i have one sat here i still haven't fitted :lol: think i have ended up with two tbh
  18. Its just full of silicone Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
  19. Looks like the bolt on the right isn't tight enough Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
  20. sounds more like the type of tip i need :clap: hadn't thought of that
  21. i'd quite like to reapply some fresh stuff, as the old stuff had cracked in places so probably traps water underneath it
