  1. Would that be an AMG 5.5l supercharged V8 or the 6.3l then ??? :lol:
  2. IIRC I sold mine for around £300, also for some reason there is no information on the offset stamped on them for some reason. HTH Jonathan
  3. any way some pics, they are work in progress so should look better when finished....
  4. You can also use wet and dry paper to remove it, then primer, then paint. It's what i'm currantly doing to mine. As Bally has said they look loads better when they are not chrome. Pics are on their way........
  5. go on, you know you want to......... :D
  6. 1043cc mk2 polo c. i had two of these, one after the other, my god the brakes were crap, and was as slow as. especially with the pierburg carb, wasn't too bad with the webber.
  7. changed the radio from a 7 year old JVC to a brand new alpine ida x001, mated to a 4gb usb memory stick, sounds so much better and looks fantastic. I also washed it, cos' it was filthy after not being used for a bit
  8. Jim check the rear (upright) wishbone bolt on the passenger side. I had a similar feeling on my golf, turned out the bolt was too long (read loose) allowing the wishbone to pivot slightly and hit the subframe causing a knock and vibration
  9. If you get the face lifted version it lights up red, will supply pics of my mums interior later if i get chance
  10. well done mate, i thought i recognised it.
  11. All calls to insurance companys are recorded so as long as you know who you spoke to at what time on which day, the ombudsman, or yourself can get a copy. Good luck in getting it sorted mate, looked stunning at the notts meet a couple of months ago.
  12. IIRC from when I started pricing it up turboing is far cheaper than adding a supercharger.

  14. check your bottom ball joints for play as they make the steering more vague when their knacked.
  15. No, i didn't get any probs with a long pedal at all went straight on bled fine and had a great pedal since, although i did all the brakes at the same time (new callipers, discs, pads, hoses etc.) Cheers for your comments guys
  16. Finally got some pics....... IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y190/n ... G_0137.jpg[/img] Hope you all like them.
  17. A better idea for you get your mate to buy the parts and you fit them :thumbleft:
  18. yeah i'm not far from hucknall and theres 2 more local to me but i dont know if their on the forum
  19. hi mate i live between j26 and j27 of the m1. look forward to seeing you about
  20. Sounds like a caliper binding, if the wheel is hot to touch after driving then the heat can cause increased wear on the bearing
  21. spray some wd40 onto the injector seal and leave for a while re-spray and then try yanking again. the wd40 will lube the seal although it may take a few apps and poss a few hours to soak into the seal dependant on how dry it is. Good luck mate
  22. as flusted, said it will come out eventually
