  1. bloody hell Jay, you dont mess about do you, this will be a new car when your done. Get pics up of the powder coated parts as soon as. Might have a nice steering wheel coming available soon ;-)
  2. Nice one, A1 VR6's rado has been used at least once or twice a week including all over the winter, I just make sure I wash and wax it every weekend. only a small mark on the rear arch from some t**t but that will be repaired, no stone chips gained though. Jim, get the car out and give it a good blast then a really good wash and polish, make sure you get to Elsecar and the love will be back!!!!
  3. Did you strip the gearbox and stuff off yourself?
  4. Amazingly clean engine Paul, did you do it all yourself? Mine before: And now: Cant beat standard with red leads! I just need to try and get to the gearbox, ABS pump and other bits to clean.
  5. Thought I would post a quick reflection shot. Been machine polishing today in preparation for fitting the RS's back on (Friday I think). Going to spend Friday cleaning under arches, pics to follow. Oh, and if anyone can recommend a good cleaner (APC?) it would be appreciated.
  6. Spotted in Scarborough this evening - Blue with what looked like TT Comps. **** GAG?
  7. What a nightmare mate, really gutted for you and know how you must be feeling. Has it chipped any paint? The paintless dent removal guys are pretty good these days. My mate run someone down and they rolled over his bonnet and made a right mess. Paintless dent guy came down and £75 all back to normal.
  8. Spent well over an hour polish and waxing 1 of my RS's in preparation for putting them back on for the summer! 3 more to go............
  9. Mine occasionally starts and cuts out, does it about 3 - 4 times then will go. Where can I get the imob deleted and where is it?
  10. Thoughts of RS's are not bad, get them bought and keep the storm.
  11. Looking at those pictures, have you had the scratch repaired?
  12. Looking good Matt! Will have to get my summer wheels on soon and get some pics done of them both. wondering whether to go to Elsecar this year, might convoy again if I do.
  13. Too right! might struggle with one of the Silver ones though!! Hurry up with those pictures, cant wait to see it. Is is staying on the Porsche wheels?
  14. Big improvement. I'm feeling left out with all the work going into Blackberry Corrados at the moment.
  15. Looking good, Going to be some nice Blackberry Corrados around the shows this year and some good competition in the show and shines!!
  16. Shame, this falls just at the wrong time for me. Probably one of the closer meets as well.
  17. Bloody Hell Paul. Hope you get better soon. Things people will do to save going to Cleethorpes! It looks like they cut you with an Axe not a scalpel, thats one nasty cut. I think the wifes Bike will be going up for sale...........
  18. Nice wheels Jay, reckon if it wasn't for the scratch on that spoke you'd have got away with just a good clean!!
  19. I had a flake of paint on my bumper but the police said that doesnt matter, it costs to much to do any paint matches. They havent even been to see my car! I havent rung my insurance company as there didnt seem any point until the police had seen the other driver. I seriously thought the police would have gone to see him on the night it happened especially since I rang 999 while following the car. If they see him now after 2 weeks he's just gonna say he cant remember.
  20. Cheers Guys, Well its been 2 weeks today since it happened and I would like to congratulate the Police for doing absolutely SOD ALL!!! I havent heard a thing from them, I called last week but they said they have 6 months to get it sorted one way or another! The guy on the phone said he would email the officer dealing with it and get him to contact me, and I've heard.....nothing! Don't want to go through insurance because chances are he will deny it and if he does admit an accident its likely he'll say I hit him and because of no witnesses it will be 50/50. I was hoping the police would see him, he admits leaving the scene of an accident and I then go through insurance as it would be seen more likely that he hit me. Cant believe this has led me to look at maybe selling the RS's to pay for the damage and incase it happened again doesn't ruin the wheels.
  21. Spot on that Andy, reckon you should put the side strips back on, forget any other alloys and go standard concours!! Need to see it from the side to check the ride height fully but definately better higher.
  22. Thats the same stuff I put on my manifold but I did the engine cover as well. How come you used a different colour for the cover Andy?
