Harrier

Hi there Andy,was wondering why i hadn't spoken to you at your work in a while,sounds like you have been busy.Good to see you are going to be giving your C some attention ! atb Daren (Droxford)

Tim used Bentley leather Rams,there was quite a bit left over too so wondering if i can make use of it anywhere else.

I haven't sat in them yet Ben but pretty sure i'm going to like them,if not i can just look at them ! ;-)

My christmas present to myself has come early this year as i had a text to say Recaros were ready after re-trim, so nipped down to Poole last night to collect them. I had Tim do them for me who also has done a lot of work for 'Rams'.I'm well pleased with them and hope to fit them at the weekend,Tim is a really nice guy & really enthusiastic about his work. Thanks to Rams for passing on his number.Will get some better pics up when the're fitted.

Dont think its a V5.Looks more like a 20v 1.8 turbo to me

Looks fantastic,hats off to you & John for producing such a beaut !

Like them ,surely you mean UK legal ?!

The smoothed mirrors is something i have spoken to my bodyshop about & i'm tempted,i would also love the Audi handles but that looks a pricey bit of work ! Probably getting my existing handles colour coded though this winter.

Just paid for mine,thanks for your efforts. looks fantastic again !

For sale is my eyebrow trim currently painted brilliant black LA9V. £25 posted

Getting there in style too ,Queen Mary 2 should be fabbo! good luck.

Ferrari F430 body kit ?

Head gasket problems are the main issue with them,aside from general poor interior trim quality & wind noise & water leaks from roof,also seen a lot of corrosion to underside ,suspension & sub frames,couldnt recommend them im afraid although there nice to look at imo. If you want a mid engined car you might be better off with a Mk2 Toyota Mr2

Under £40 from GSF,did mine recently

Yaaay,good decision !

Ok, anyone want a ticket for this weekends show at NEC ? It can be used fri,sat or sunday.I won a pair of tickets & only need 1 for myself.Im going on Saturday.Let me know asap & i can put it in post & if there are lots interested i will pick names from a hat or something.

Sold to marks2.

marks2 , pm'd you

The Victor Reinz kit from GSF is pretty good & a reasonable price

Momo steering wheel boss,has 18mm approx, spline which fits earlier Mk 2 golfs & i think will fit a Corrado if the spline sleeve is removed from the column,though that is worth double checking.£25 posted.

Timing chain & tensioner dont usually whine,I would be looking at alternator,water pump & power steering.An easy way determine if its one of those is to remove drive belt & run engine,if noise is gone then you know where to look.As for the ticking from head area could be a noisey hydraulic tappet,might settle down after a few more miles. Hope that helps

Coolant temp sensor maybe,vag-com might show it

Oh yes,very nice cars

Would be sad to see you without a C Andy but could understand your decision wanting a change after all those Corrados.Just 1 question,Whats a Mk 1 LCR ?

Its a vacuum pipe to fuel pressure regulator,no fuel in there

Check all 3 engine/gbox mounts Ben,sounds like maybe the front one & check the bolt hasn't corroded & sheared.
