On route to Vdub Island !

Just a quick wheel update ! Decided they'd look better silver... What do you guys recon ? :) Ben

Sorry I didn't get the part number. They'll be $$$ from Vw if still for sale. I got 1 off of a 2.0 ltr and welded the bracket on to fit the VR rad. That's the only difference between them I think. Good luck Ben

Cheers pal :) Do you mean the bottom rad support where the rad sits on?

Gave it a wash and wax yesterdy! Came out mega clean . Would def recommend Dodo Juice stuff.

Classics on the common in harpenden earlier. Think it was a green VR . Didn't really get to see it properly as we're squeezing past each other in traffic.

Haha I lolled

I second this , 18s just look silly

A few from the weekend.

X2 There's a grey one near me with the gti stuff on. Looks great man Ben

Found out the bmc I got off here was the smaller/wrong filter but funnily enough my mate who's building a 1.8t mk2, bought the right 1 and it dosent fit! Yoink!!! So now I have the right sized filter and surprisingly does make a difference! Had a tiny bit of oil dripping from the breather pipe onto the heatshield which was giving off smoke! Bit of a panic when I popped the hood lol:) so removed it all, cleaned it all out and put it back together . Good as new. Pics to follow later Ben

Hi mate These are off a VR but pretty sure it's the same thing on all Slot in radiator where 1 of the L pieces goes in. If there's dirt in the slot clean it all out before you push the mount in. These are the lugs that push into the slam panel with a rubber bush. Can see sorta how it goes here. That's all the pics I've got but it's pretty straight forward . If you don't have the lugs with bushes you'll have to find them off a breaking car as obsolete from the dealers. Hope this helps a little :) Ben

Cheers Owen I'll check that at the weekend! Ben

Bump. Early spec grey leather doorcards for sale or swap for late grey leather cards!!

Oh rite that's a bugger! Come to think of it, it does only do it when cold! Deffo wierd! Lol

It's not too serious is it? Planning on a new clutch but not gearbox :(

Every time I start the VR and pull away in first from standstill there's a clonk noise! Only happens in 1st gear when clutch pedals almost the whole way up. Any1 know what this could be? Cheers Ben

Cheers guys. 1. Rear passenger seatbelt showing wear. 2. Slight air leak on exhaust (something along those lines) So nothing really that bad :) Yea stu that's the first time I've seen ya driving about I think. Put a smile on my face too knowing someone apreciates it around here! Lol . Well I was Gunna go down the 'low n wide' route but having second thoughts now as its been a real pleasure to drive at almost standard height! I'm liking not having to slow down to 5mph to go over a bloody speedbump! Next thing is to give it a good 'ol' service I think :) Wish I could say my original C was coming along nicely, but last I heard it got impounded! And mike was deciding what to do with it!! But he's a good guy so hoping he sorted it for the best :s Ben

No worries cheers anyway

M.o.t passed :D with only 2 advisories! Found a pic while flicking through some old sprinter mags... Woo :) Ben

Managed to just about pass the mot with mine as "a dogs been at it!" lol If any1s got 1 in good condition ( no fraying/damage) I'll take it off your hands for good money! Cheers Ben

Still got the exhaust bud? Ben

Cheers kempy! Recieved thurs last week ! Thanx a lot :) Cheers for the offer aswell mate . Ben

Deal :) pm'ing now
