    what mpg?

    I struggle to get 350 out of mine.......
  3. one of there ...Clickage...
  4. Your old valver?? No idea, i didn't stop to look
  5. It was on the 1 mile stretch of road that runs between my house and my mums after coming back from there to home. I wasn't doing much along there (no where near what i sometimes do luckily) must have been around 40mph on a 60mph road, i'd also just slowed and overtaken a couple of people that were obviously looking at something across the field but they didn't think to wave my speed down as they watched these massive beasts sprinting to the road (enough of that anyway, i've got to stop thinking of 'What ifs')!! So as I hit the deer whilst braking I was probably going between 15 - 30 mph.......
  6. VAG parts sell it in their aladdins cave bit....Clicky
  7. Yeah TT's are good, they look a lot better as well. The standard ones that were on mine were fine for 'town' driving, but as soon as i put on a swift pace on a carriageway they lifted clear of the screen!
  8. Personally i blame it all on Supercharged who said to me on Sunday that it'd be worth getting a front end respray at some point! :wink:
  9. Cheers S.G but i need late bits. Like ya said it'll hopefully be fairly easy to fix, its just the time and money.
  10. The thing launched about 3 metres into the air, very luckily away from the car as if not i think it may have ended up coming through the screen!
  11. Had a slight disagreement with a very very big dear before! could have been worse but i'm still very pissed off!!! If anyone's got a slam panel and bonnet going spare in green, preferably classic please let me know......... [align=center] [/align] Bugger :(
  12. i was thinking that the other day..........
  13. OK sounds good, http://www.performancecentre.co.uk do them for £323 so i'll probably be going with that.

    what mpg?

    Yeah, the engine has to work a lot harder

    what mpg?

    Yeah, very very very frequently talked about. When mathematically worked out or when switching my MFA into the test mode it does actually work out at around 30 - 33MPG on motorway driving, which still isn't great... These threads always come back to the same point...don't take the normal MFA readout as the truth, take a note of how many gallons you put in, reset your trip metre and do the maths the next time you fill up...

    what mpg?

    Don't worry Jim, mine's got the same drinking problems.......it's the 5 o'clock rust that often gives it away.....
  17. Forgot to mention that that's for the centre sections and the back box.
  18. As i don't speak Italian i sent them an e-mail, i'll get the response up as soon as i hear back. Yeah, they were my second choice after reading people's reviews in this thread, i've found them slightly dearer from most places..
  19. OK now hit another problem, the Supersprint centre section is now discontinued! Back Box is however available.......
  20. Hi all! Just been in deep conversation with the underside of my car and have discovered that the exhaust is completely rotten! I'm looking through the websites trying to find the best price for a Supersprint cat back and the best I can find so far is £320.96 from http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk, anyone else know of a better price? Many thanks in advance!
  21. According to ETOS the spoiler takes 5 hex head panel screws (N 015 946 1) costing 28p each, these fit into snap nuts (N 101 473 01) costing 51p each and 5 fitted self locking bolts (N 904 338 01) costing £1.65 each. I would assume this can all be done in situ.
