Well I thought I'd fixed my camera but everythings a gone bit blue..

So this is my 16v, its a bit worn and a little tatty all round. I'll put it through a mot and go from there. It'll never be a show car as I'll be using it everyday but it should clean up alright.

The rear calipers are notorious for siezing. Best bet is to fit either mk3 or mk4 golf calipers. I used mk4 calipers with a set of goodrich hoses, as the banjo fittings are different than the standard ones. You can pick up mk4 rear calipers for about £60-80 from breakers yards and goodrich hoses are about £35.

Thanks, I'll get some Golf ones and get busy with the copperslip. I've got a Goodridge hose on my push bike (don't laff) and it made a big differance.

I sorted the camera so this is what it really looks like...
