  5. i have a little 306 that i use for work and i put a nasty scrape in the bumper, was qutie deep, could really feel it. wasn't worth having a pro do it, but didn't want to leave it, so got some rattle cans, a bit of filler and had a bash myself. came out pretty good, impressed myself :lol: pics aren't the best but you get the idea
  6. i know the one you mean, and i know someone who has one tucked away in barn like that, i thought it was his when i saw that ad.. i think they are these E9 CSL http://images.google.co.uk/images?sourc ... a=N&tab=wi na its a 2002 turbo in the Film 4 breaks i must be thinking of a different ad then, this was an old white one with the blue and pink stripes, just sat in a barn, only a quick clip before the film starts
  7. this is mentioned in the bentley manual, needed for the track rod ends? or steering rack? what is it and who sells it?

  10. they have a VW/Audi stamp on, they just seem a little old, but they may be fine, i don't know what they normally look like. this is what i've gathered so far....just need alot more bits from VW to get this steering sorted
  11. i actually already have mk4 glasses :! :lol: cheeky gits! has anyone else done something similar? or is it only me thats a bit of a pratt?
  12. i want one of those stupidally loud horns, for a few reasons... is there anywhere to fit them to? you have to have a separate air tank, a compressor etc, and the horns aren't exactly small? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/152-DB-T ... enameZWD2V something like this^^^
  13. i wouldn't think the dealers would do that? i'll get pics of what i got
  14. i already got mine from the dealers, £18 each with two clips :! they seem crappy as well, old and white, not very nice rubber
  15. am about to replace these steering boots, and do i need a certain type of grease or any at all? not sure where i need it
  16. i did it once and the bang i got when going over bumps was scary, i kept thinking the shocks would fly out of the top of bonnet :lol:
  17. corr these pics found their way around the internet fairly quickly :lol:
  18. yes i knew about that, this is the rebuilt one, was following the build thread, amazing machine :!
  19. good advice, i think i'll check them out, got all my suspensions, top plates and ARB now, still got to get the wishbones, ball joints, track rods etc
  20. http://passionford.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=289223 i'm sure some of you know the car, the Reyland escort. If you read the thread you'll see what i mean about lucky :shock:
