Hi Dave, I'll have one in a couple weeks as per our previous Convo... :)

I would've stuck with my clk430, havin said that, 5k will get you a tidy clk55 amg. Bulletproof cars, not bad on juice if you stay off the loud pedal; 15-20mpg town and 30-35mpg motorway. Sounds crap I know but for what you get you can't go wrong. Insurance is cheap as is tax and they're relatively uncommon...

If you've got an aftermarket stereo use the remote cable on that. When you turn on your headunit your voltage display will turn on. That's what I did.

Thats an interesting one! They do sound awesome, I heard one going through a tunnel on the a406 once giving it the beans, went like hell and sounded mental too but defo wasnt standard...

£110 if you have black carpet that you can give me!
-
Which skid plate are u using mate? Is it steel or alloy? I need one!!!
-
Rams, Haris had em smoothed off. Looks so much better!
-
Like I said on edition, looks lovely, sump will hate you!

Cheers, sounds simple enough...

What paint code did you use on your solitudes mate?

Anyone recommend a garage/mechanic around London/Essex??
Abdul replied to Abdul's topic in General Car Chat
Well the garage is near shephards bush but im always over that way anyway so it shouldnt be a problem. Pm me if you want the guys no, he quoted me £50 to change the front calipers and hoses and bleed the brakes which i thought was very resonable. My car already has the 288 disks on but with porka calipers so they dont need to be changed obviously. -
Bump with a price drop. I'm keeping the amp. So for £120 you get the sub, box, boot floor and amp rack. Collection only. A little bit of carpet has lifted on the boot floor on the rop right corner, i'll try and glue this back soon.

Abdul replied to Abdul's topic in General Car Chat
I would love to say ill do it myself but as it's my brakes I don't want to take the risk lol. I'm sure with some guidance it could be done but it's not really something I want to attempt on my own... ---------- Post added at 05:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ---------- Ok, sorted found a place not too far from me... Will update with how it goes etc. -
Hi guys as above really, the garage I used to use have a new mechanic and to be honest Ive heard bad things about him and the old guys moved somewhere up north! So I need someone to fit my 288's to my VR and bleed the system etc... Any recommendations around London/Essex? Cheers Abdul

Sorry bro but whoever comes up with cash first... I don't mind holding things but not for two weeks.

Bump... No one wants a nice steering wheel??
-
Lol cheers Veejay. If your w3 can't wake up your neighbours it needs more power lol!

Just to confirm as people keep asking me, these aren't hubcentric, there's no such thing as hubcentric 5mm spacers. They're usually 15mm and above. And yes these are safe lol. You can just about make out the eibach logo... They're also multidrilled as you can see, 4x100 and I think maybe 4x108. Thanks

You're welcome, glad we could've been of use lol :)

Rear Brakes Locking After Fitting 288mm to front. HELP!
Abdul replied to Philuk's topic in Drivetrain
Passat calipers have screw fitting and apparently work with rado hoses. -
Adjustment Bureau 7/10 - good but somehow bland at the same time. The sitter - 7.5/10 - pretty funny but bored of that fat guy now. Man on a ledge - 8/10 - good film, kinda similar to that film with the bank heist and the dude living in a wall. I would've given this 7/10 but the chick has still got my mind spinning so 8 it is. Contagion 0/10 - trailer looked good, worst frickin film ever, you're constantly waiting for the good bit which never comes! I've watched so many over the last year as I get in free, can't bloody remember any of em now.

Don't worry Adrian, I rarely turn my laptop on these days lol. Joys of an iPhone eh. Neil that's a good deal, I thought it was 5p for £50?
-
Typical, not a single shell near me is participating! Did you get my pm btw Adrian?

Thanks, should have some updates next week. It's been too cold this last week to do anything lol.
