  1. Looking to buy a speed camera detector. But which is the best unit to buy?? Want one with laser detection really as we only have 0 fixed speed cameras local too me :)
  2. Was it a purple one? If it was i saw the same one toward Amlwch way a few days back.
  3. Ye i sold the rado on Wednesday. Come oevr for a spin when ever mate. Did pop past JJB to see if you where in earlyer...
  4. It was just time for a change and this i thought gave me the most bang for the buck. I only have one car btw.
  5. Went an bough myself this yesterday. Really happy with it and what a car. Had to show about 50 people in work it today :D Got it for £9550, just had its C service, new P6000 on the fronts & in all seems very well looked after. Its got 39,000 on the clock and has a complete specialist/lotus service history. Had to sit in traffic for 3 hours with it on the way home though :( Took us 2 1/2 hours to get there and 6 1/2 back. I love it :)
  6. Does anyone know of any good lotus forums??
  7. got upgraded buddy so the extra money will pay for the large car loan :)
  8. well new job role needs a new car and want somthing different and fast lol
  9. i have to go down it to come back up so the energy i save going down i can use to go back up. Well looks like i will have a corrado for sale in the next 4 weeks if anyone is intrested??
  10. lol nice. i should bike it but really, never thought of it engine wear wise but i live at the top of a very large hill.... and im very lazy....
  11. Thinking of getting one of these for around £8-9000. I do about a 1 mile drive to work and do about 6,000 miles a year, and dont have kids etc etc so practicality isnt an issue. I know it might not be the best place to ask on VW site but what do people think of them and are there any problems or plus points i should consider?

    1.8 16v Oil

    Just about to change the oil on my 1.8 16v. How much will it take? about 4L ??
  13. ye im well up for that this year buddy, especially now the cars looking spot on.
  14. ye i need to do the matrix buddy cos with the rain at the mo and no heaters its getting fogged up :( Need to order the matrix really and then do it in one go. Get paid in about 2 weeks though so will have to wait until then...
  15. Mine went the other day and the RAC just bypassed it like everyone has said. Just need a chance now to fix it as i havnt any heaters now lol.
  16. finaly go the car back today 16 days after they picked it up. Really glad to have it back after driving a ford KA about. I hate not having a car people dont notice! Forgot how low down the car is when i took it for a spin... Happy days... Pleased with the job on the car and the colour match is good. They sprayed the whole side in the end and fixed a dent & key mark i had on the back pannel at the same time too. So if you need a repair or new pannel just get sombody to crash into you.... Funny how things turn out lol
  17. 1.3 Mk2 Fiest ghia - 1.6 xr2 Fiesta - Mk2 8v Golf - 16v Corrado to this gay heep :( .... But only until mine gets back from having new wing and body work & half a car respray :)
  18. nice one mate. Just remember mine has to go back in ye ;)
  19. Ah right. How much for a new one of them?
  20. Driving along after having a water leek for a few days and the whole thing turned into a steam room behind the dash :roll: Must have been a pipe on the heater matrix but the water was all on the drivers side? Which pipe would this be and will i have to remove the whole dash to change it?
  21. Really like the look of these wheels. What are they and could i get some for the 16v?
  22. Repair shop came and looked at the damage to the car this AM and listed what needed doing. She really liked the car and said that for £100 cash in hand they will do the bang on the back arch which has been there since i bought the car wilst they do the front, so all in all gonna look better then it has since i bought the thing. :)
  23. Got it to open with a little force and looks like the pannel that goes from wing to wing at the front has bent too so i assume they will just replace that also...??
  24. Just phoned the insurance and they vare picking it up in the next frew days to go to a body shop. Getting some shitty 1.0l car lol Only thing that made me worry about it being written off is cos the bonet doesnt open...
