Failing that were normally up every other weekend so could bring it with us next time we come up. Gav

wot sort of vr for 3.5k?..+ wot milage the vr god for?
peanut replied to dubmas's topic in General Car Chat
as said mileage is pretty much irrelevant, best thing to do is go see a few and drive them. Youll soon tell if its a lemon or not. Regarding the vr lump, if its rattling its balls off then its time to look at chains tensioner and clutch while your at it, however this is a good bargaining point and once its done with the sort of mileage youre doing its doulbtfull itll need done again in your ownership. Have a look on the left hand side of the head where it meets the block for anything wetas its common for the 2.9 head gasket to spring a leak in the top left corner. For the money your looking at paying there are plenty of really good cars around. Just drive a few Gav -

very nice, mine was a panther black 10v mb also on a D-plate. Had a lago blue wr (A-reg) before that but it was stolen. Thatll be my ultimate goal, Panther black 20rr, thatll be a long way away though. Gav

have a look under the bonnet at the linkage and the cables leading to it, are thse all secure? can you get free range of movement when you move the linkage by hand? Can you engage any gears when its not running ? Gav

The k24 was used on the s2 with an external wastegate and readily available 2nd hand for about £100+. Good turbo but only good for just over 280bhp gav

passat moonroof, b3 from an estate. pretty sure you fit the metal rado panel to this (or get one from a passat with a metal sunroof). Pretty sure mk2 golf ones fit but they only slide or tilt (or vise versa, cant remeber off the top of my head. Failing that series 2 audi 80 ones will fit too with a bit of work. HTH Gav

aye, dont get me wrong the golf is cracking fun, makes a nice noise..even dare i say it drives like a rado...buts its not. heres the build thread, most uptodate pic is on the last page. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... &sk=t&sd=a Not sure if its just the stance or what it is. Just miss it Gav
