stormseeker: don't clean your engine bay!

 

You have the authentic "I bought a VW and all I got was this lousy burst water hose" look about it, just like mine. ;)

 

Buyers are suspicious when the engine bay is too clean. It looks like you've been Mr Muscle-ing away head gasket leaks... :)

Hi there, thats a very nice looking car-can i just confirm the wheels as Votex from Wheel Mania? iv been toiling over these wheels for a while, think i may have just been swung towards them now. Do they come with the polished lip?Any problems with them fitting?

 

 

Cheers Fraser

Hi there

 

The wheels are performance alloy replicas,supposed to look like the BBS rims,fitment was straight forward but every rim designer has different tolerances.

They have a polished lip,but the lacquer started to peel off :x ,like most polished lips the lacquer is applied thin as not to dull the polished effect :p

 

and they are an arse to clean :wink: :mrgreen:

I would have took that further if it was VW, I'm a mechanic and test drive cars as well ,but you have to have respect in customers pride and joy,just ask yourself if you would thrash your own car like that?(sometimes :wink: )

I came off light and its made me slow right down and I tend to cruze more 8) ,life's to short for a quick thrill :x

 

Just Cruze.................... :mrgreen:

Makes me think about an old advert for what I think was an Audi RS4. Showed a greyhound race with all the dogs running flat out with their tongues hanging out etc. You could see the traps in the background and in the end trap there was a cheetah just lying down looking really mean- I think it was trying to say that if you have got the power under the bonnet then you can afford to just take it easy- Like you say leave the racing to the 1.3 novas 8) .

 

Saying that I think my Corrados getting a little long in the tooth for getting pummelled every weekend- Every time a thrash it something else either breaks or drops off :(

 

Cheers
