So your gonna be abother of the 2 wheel nutter brigade over here huh? Well if you see a blue g60 when your over here give me a wave! ;) By the way, spent all afternoon/night yesterday in bushys beer tent for the opening day which was fun! but wasnt so good this morning! :( -
Yeah quarterbridge is fun. Everyone either sits and waits for someone else to move or everyone goes at the same time! normally try to find a big lorry to use as a blocker! :D
-
You should try them on the Isle of man! wow, whole new experience! had the same woman pull out in front of me 3 days in a row! each time she just stares at me! lol. gonna buy a £50 scrapper and have some fun :D

Used to have a tuned up smart car, used to outhandle a lot of cars and was pretty stable at speed. Was chipped to 80bhp ( thats over 100bhp/tonne) and would happily bounce off the 95mph limiter :D Sold it and bought my first corrado though of course ;)
-
The better half has a 02 Arosa and the wipers on that are definately different to the ones people are fitting tho the raddo's. Was thinking of getting a set of the Lupo ones for my raddo and another for her arosa as her wipers are almost ( but not quite ) as bad
-
Just wondering if anyone on here has an knowledge on this bit of kit. Im after gauges in the car but didnt really want to fit an pods as i was trying to keep it standard looking. Have seen bits about this on the net and think it could be what im after as i could wire it into the screen in the dash. Any one any ideas or thoughts on it? Cheers

saw one in the local autotrader the other day for 9k!!!

Cutting MDF Baseboard / Covering in Cloth for Boot Install ?
MBeadell replied to BigTartanJudge's topic in ICE 'n' Secure
Did one in mine, made side panels to to hold the amp. there are some pics of it in the gallery. Dont have the patterns any more but they were pretty simple to make from card. Also made them so that once you take them out you wouldnt know they were ever there as there were no new fixing holes -
I know i have to sell the car, as much for common sense reasons as anything else. Pay out quite a bit a month ( insurance, etc ) when i dont use it. Also have the other halfs car to run around in and its only a 5 min walk to work. Im probably going to get a mk1 golf as a little project to play with at some point but the money is more useful for getting the bits and pieces we will need when we get a place rather than the mortgage ( bed, sofa etc as its not worth us shipping our old stuff over ) Think i will hold on till someone else comes along. Been a bit of interest so heres hoping.
