Its a great thread Im always lurking to see whats happened :clap: :luvlove: :norty: :nuts: :tongue:

Our ones had the canvas back. they were for Mortar or Milan Platoons. ah those were the days during the war etc etc :D

They drive Lovely... we had these in the TA years ago. they would go anywhere and do an amazing 0-to 80 in no time at all. try and find a trailer to compliment it. they wre always well serviced,looks like a Nato one as its clock is in kph. the uk ones only went to 80 and they would get off the clock in no time 8) :lol:

Looks ok,where are the other 4 seats and room for two more at a push? :lol:

8) Me TOO! 8) :lol:

Lifting Leather Skirt,God Im such a perv :lol:

get screwing or get screwed at the dealers for them unscrewing it for you :D Sorry but Wanted to Say Screw A LOT

You need a conversion kit to start with, http://www.awesome-gti.co.uk/store/prod ... xProd=6959 Heres a link,you dont have to buy from here obviously. Can someone confirm this is definatly the right part? I bought the goodridge kit anyway. Pretty straight forward,I changed the handbrake cable whilst I was at it;you dont have to but why not seeing your in there 8) Check the dealers for Calipers,some want the exchange part back,others wont bother. I priced them from GSF nad int he end got them from the dealers for the real thing as there was not much money in it.

I like supercharged thought of the Mazda. One of the lads just got a Leon 140 diesel 9 months old for 10888 from arnold clark with 8000 miles on it quite hard suspension so unsure of a rebadged fr type. what about a Honda?

Might be good if posted who the dealers were,name and shame or least credit the good ones

you can also get ones with a sunstrip across the roof, we had loads of hassle with a RAC screen had to be removed twice! :?

whats a vw tps? trade parts summit?

Because my local dealers are arseholes and dont give discount, I pay £21.86 for 5 litres and a 'free' oem oil filter.

Could be the ignition amp,located up by the ECU on early 1.8 Valver,had a problem with ours when the car sat for a few years

does it smell like a hot cat converter?

I would have said it was from the windscreen or your matrix is kancked

well if yor going to try and do it as it is. I would clip all the seat belts into position in thier holders. It kinda tells the guy your in the trade and trying to help!

An Amzing Story and a credit to you :notworthy:

I ve enjoyed reading all of this How much are the Wishbones as they look far better than the ones on the womans old Nugget :D

I dont know whats wrong with the wifes valver then........ She get Mid thirties round town and its even better on a run So unless your getting 35 round town and 40 on a run I would say a valver is More economic if you stay of the juice and drive it tidily :D Im not even on about driving i miss Daisy either,Im shocked its so good.

Very Nice.... 8)

Goods pictures Craigowl. It appears you have half of halfords in your garage protecting you car 8) and the mudflaps get them back on :D

185/55/15 or 195/50/15 were standard sizes on early Valver,so the Car manual says right here 8) anyway we swopped from 185's to 195's as the size is Far cheaper I got 4 pilots for £220 and you r a cosco memeber you can get them for £180

Its not pretty,but glad she saved the occupants. :D

You should know if its a nail when you drive it. you can always phone Vw with the reg n chassis number to see if it has any Vw svs history too
