  3. langers came round today , and we got the sunroof sorted :clap: . i hate the bleedin thing its caused me so much grief ,so glad ive got another job ticked off the list . edit thanks to matt vr for lending me the bently manual without this i would have struggled and nath for help with the motor synching
  4. paypal fine ile check with matt for price asap for you . does colour matter ? edit 10.00 plus pnp , thanks rob .
  5. we talking the metal one , if so me n matt have one on the valver we a breaking .
  6. nearly there mate nice one ! thanks for the help today over the phone today :)
  7. looking fantastic :salute: when i dyed my seats n cards someone said to me why not go for the oxblood red colour ? .at the time i thought no it will be to much , but looking at yours , it looks great . i have to do mine again because of some contamination off my hands ? got on the drivers seat and the colour started to come off even with the satin sealer on , it wore on the piping [porka seats] . may go for the red now :lol:
  8. im not going to be much help .....but the valver was parked next to mine at a local show , and its a lovely car , i agree with kip , but at the same time i love the vr . in the words of the kid in the old aa advert '' im not helping much am i '' :lol: .
  9. only way to find out is door card off and the plastic membrane , door lock off then you can see what the problem is , they are very fiddly to get to ,you need a small child that will do the job for you as it is almost impossible to get your hands in there :lol: . both metal rods hook on to a plastic piece . mine is broken so im givin up and just having the door pin stickin up for show ! after all its not like you use them is it . and you are right its to cold to be outside working me n matt took some more parts off the valver today it was bleedin parky !
  10. if its your daily then fair play mate you need all the protection you can get , i took mine off when i had the respray , so now have no intention of parking in tesco carpark :lol: or any other carpark for that matter .
  11. depends on how you want the car to look. the lines look cleaner without strips , as for stickin em back on would double sided tape make them stick out to far ?. what i mean is its fairly thick so the strips would not sit as close as they did from the factory . mabe some type of rubber glue ?.
  12. that looks bad :sad: hope you get it sorted without to much bother. bet you would love to bring down that baseball bat on his kneecaps!!
  13. have to agree with the rado styling ,i love every inch of my vr n think the shape is the dogs b******s .
  14. have one of these ,its still on the valver me n matt are breaking will sort a price for you asap ,thanks rob

  16. yep original wipers were crap . get yourself sorted with the lupo conversion , bit costly but they work :lol:
  17. nice c , welcome to the dbp club , best colour ever :)
  18. hi mate , open bonnet , gently remove the tubes . you will be able to push the jets out from underneath the bonnet , they may be a bit tight but will come out.
  19. welcome to forum quarter of a mile .... no idea but quick enough! ins group 17 ? i may be wrong , someone will correct me . weight ? not sure .... but they weigh some :lol: 0. 60 varies in different books n mags i like the quickest one 6.4 secs , but there are plenty of options to bring on more horses :nuts: they are a great car to drive , if n when you buy one , put down the window at about 3n a half rpm in second floor it and listen to that roar of the vr :D

    Respray?

    one of the reasons it went back to bare metal was because it was blown over a few times ! they emailed me and said theres no way we are painting over that !

    Respray?

    yep well worth it , i payed £2,400 , having said that they did it for pound notes , and worked on it at weekends and the evenings , so no vat on that either. my build thread shows what they did , alot of it back to bare metal , they even did the plastic arches in the black gunky stuff. that price included two new pillars from vw as well . the company did a fantastic job and alot of people have said what a great job they did . they are in bath though , still not a million miles from you .
  22. have one if you want it mate . i would like to see sunroof cassette being made again , seen as ive ruined two trying to get them to fit right :brickwall:
  23. done , my daily is a transit the fuel goes nowhere these days :(
  24. c is looking nice mate . interior pics ? what colour is she ? welcome along . posh old windsor eh very nice .lived in berks for a good while after livin in the smoke .cant believe how much has changed since the old days . give you a price on the bits soon .
