Nice 1 for the spoiler man . Sick car too 😜

Thanx dude wasn't Gunna bother as last time I went to them they were useless. Safe

Cheers mate yea il try him . Was thinkin about makin some up but if someone's already done it they'll look 10x better and save me a night in the cold garage . Till then I'll try drill out the old bolts as they both sheared off. Might b able to salvage some spares. Nice 1

I had to move the airfilter and pipe out of the way first. Then unclipped two pipes on side of engine so I could get two hands in to wiggle it off. The actuall lead pretty much fell off the end that goes over plug so couldn't get much grip from top

Cheers Imgolfman. Don't see enough banded steels imo. Right so I took the coilpack off bt couldn't see any major cracks, just looks like some1s caught sumin on the corner . Then I checked to see if the lead was plugged in properly and this happened!! So I'm guessing this could cause a spark at the coil end? Explains why it sounds a bit lumpy. Added leads to the list of stuff to get plus radiator top mounts! Anybody know where to get these? Also need rubber bushes for these. Till the next time Cheers ben

Hi people. Recently swapped my little mk1 golf c for a vr6. Pretty fair trade I thort. Anyway it's a K reg aqua blue model, came with no seats as that's what the guy before bought it for. Its got near enough 160k on the clock but sounds good. Slight spark from coilpack but it's in the que of stuff to be done. Front and Rear brakes need replacing :( it's got 312mm brakes on the front which look sick bt could prove pretty expensive. The sunroof decided to give up on me! And the spoiler about 30 secs later. The heater controls are a bit fooked aswell so will be rippin that out soon. There's Gunna be a whole load more to do but il update when I get to it. Here's a few pics of how it's looking at the mo. That's the car as I bought it. Pretty standard bt not too shabby. Picked up some early grey leathers for cheap cheap in ok condition so chucked them in for now. Had no idea early doorcards were different so set on swapping over the looms in the door for the earlier 1s. Ended up buying a pair of late front cards instead as look a lot nicer imo. Treated myself to some steelies. They came off a '11' plate beetle which had been upgraded to alloys in the showroom so there almost brand new . Got 8" fronts and 9" rears . Was Gunna get em powder coated but as they were sitting rusting in my garage something had to be done... So I did them Matt black :s Probly b rolling with hubcaps on tho as they look awsome. Best lookin 1s I've seen and they came with the steels. Bargain Off to start her up now for the first time of the year lol Gunna take coil pack off check it and maybe strip down the spoiler for a lube up. Cheers for lookin Happy new year folks

Hey man ill take the spoiler if that's ok? I'm in flitwick so can pick up anytime. Probly take a look at ur other bits too cheers Benje

PM'd cheers dude Benje

Were they the design 5000s by any chance? If so, he got TOLD. Just writing "buy it now 650" in the description don't count as a reserve. Think he was foreign tbh

Need late grey leather doorcards plz I've got early 1s if any1 wants t swap?

Hi I've recently purchased a early grey leather interior for my late C. Just wanted to know if all I need to do is change the plugs that come outa the doors to early 1s? If not what else would I need to change? Or if any1 has a pair of late fronts they wanna swap for early 1s? Doubt it bt worth a try. Cheers guys hope you can help Ben
