  1. I'm sure we'll find another supplier should you decide to price yourself out of the market foe RHD mats. Regards
  2. He doesn't post here often, his web address is in his sig, so probably best to message / phone him direct?
  3. That’s typical of a slipping belt, maybe worth checking it’s condition?
  4. It's not bad if you control the strip, don't remove anything until its sold, start at the front working in (lights bumper rads and fans) and inside (interior, switches etc) Keep all the bits to keep the interior dry until its sold(don't sell the sunroof first!). Keep the shell rolling until the day has arrived to get rid of it (but loosen the bolts when you're in the vicinity to aid the final push!). Price items high, too cheap and you'll be a busy fool - aim to package 2 or 3 items a day otherwise all your spare time disappears. Big items should be collection only - often you'll also sell other items on the day of collection I really enjoy it.
  5. I have a pair of mk4 rear callipers, one has a ripped dust cover, both handbrake levers move freely, ideal for rebuild, the car was on the road just a month ago £10 collected nr Crewe Cheshire
  6. Oh right, it read to me like they'd been in sprinter previously and you wanted to reprint them here.
  7. Sprinter content would be copywrited to CCGB? You’d need their permission.
  8. On UK cars the pipe passes through the radiator crossmember loops around and passes back through the crossmember. Its just 1/2 inch steel or alloy pipe crimped to rubber. Personally I'd just replace the broken part, non OE parts aren't the same quality and don't last anywhere near as long?
  9. Few of the committee post here anymore, they used to be here virtually every night.
  10. Searched RV125 and vanvan without success?
  11. Cant find it on FB? Is it on a forum or market place?
  12. Maybe you should post a list of the enquirers 24 hours before you make your decision to weed out any potential breakers / resellers known to the forum?
  13. Is it a full size adult bike? Difficult to tell on a phone- looks cool
  14. Compression Ratio Forced Induction
  15. I bought a 96 VR6 in 99 after owning a tight handling MK2 8V, awful car to drive on a road with a bend in it. Fitted Koni and Eibachs and it was still poor. I've also owned a MK3 TDi estate with a weitec kitand G60 brakes on it and it could take a bend quite well - a combination of the diesel engine leaning back towards the bulkhead (opposed to the VR6 leaning forwards towards the rad pack) and the extra weight behind the rear axle helped I think. MK3s rust badly too, MK4s are built much better IMO
  16. Its probably 10 years ago now, I can't remember the colour TBH (he only drove once in it, had to borrow cars or we drove on his behalf when it wouldn't start lol - the last thing you want after a 12 hour night shift is a car that won't start!), the other guy was in mid wales and blocked all contact when things started going wrong
  17. A car sharing friend had a coupe turbo for s brief period (off the swapz website - buyer beware! via an alfa 147), intermittent starter by all accounts and after many RAC visits (to the point they refused further visit for the same fault) and garages the loom behind the dash was all burnt up. the car left with the garage to cover the bill, an expensive lesson learned. A Corrado with a Fiat engine would be different?

    Ant's VR6

    Sounds like the alternator is turning too slowly, is the pulley larger than the original? Golf V5 starter is an upgrade for the VR6. Sometimes its amazing how gremlins disappear after a cars been laid up?
  21. Just saw an ad for a program on C4 for Monday night 10PM, The End of the @@@@@@@@ World where "Bonnie" is sat inside a Blackberry C?
