20vT is a poor mans 16vT

Yes ABS certainly can be however there is hope, as your car was (I assume) registered prior to 2000, so long as you remove it completely you don't need it for the MOT. It's only if it's fitted it needs to be working. HTH's As for this meet I didn't check it out till now, keep me posted the old fashioned way Alex, and that is not a euphemism...

Yes, it's a massive problem. You've buckled the chassis and it's beyond redemption due to your idiocy. Give me £100 and i'll trailer it away for you... Seriously though, you might get wind noise at speed. But as someone else has pointed out that there is adjustment in the hinge/ shims. I'll have nosey next time I'm in the 'hood if you like? However, I would be wee bit concerned if the door aperture has changed shape as that would suggest that you have buckled it. I doubt you have, but then again I have seen you drive...

9th of Oct, sounds interesting. Think the 750 club were looking for stewards for this too Alex. But don't quote me on that...

This was my thought. Should be "Calling all Scot's", interesting though. Are tatty mk2's allowed? If I follow at a discreet distance?

Aw dude, my laughter is of the sympathetic variety. When you get back I reckon I can get you sorted out with a set of new boots from Gregor. Shouldn't be too expensive to sort. That's if you don't spend all your money on Cider and exotic chutneys...

A decent fabricator worth their salt would be able to knock that up out of sheet. Or if you were doing it yourself cardboard template. Trace onto steel. Cut out, bend to suit and tack in place, then seam weld into the body. Zinc primed. Job done. Time for a cup of tea and a biscuit. Possibly two biscuits if you've done an especially good job.

Cable ties FTW!! At least until you can sort it with proper bolts. Mind you, 12yrs and I've never had a cable tie fail, can't say the same about bolts though...

Cheers for the warm welcome guys. As for you AGF, get knotted...:) Here's some more for comedy value. One very sheared alt pulley. Stranded, merd. Out with the steel again. And we're back in the game... A before and after on a certain recently MOT'd black G60

Shiny beer eh? My favourite. I was too knackered yesterday to sort out my indicators and fogs. Will be a job for the weekend I think.

Cable ties and it'll take 2mins...

Seem to recall someone else was there too until 10pm, someone with awesome welding skillage fixing the bit you broke. Someone who nearly lost their front bumper in the line of duty.... and did loose their fog lamps.... Cough ****ing cough... Glad it passed though dude.

That was epic. I am sending happy thoughts in your direction..... Beyond that I'm saying nothing;)

But TFSi without the correct ECU is just a 2ltr. It's the electronics that make it special. Not researched Qpeng with regards this swap but I do know that their 1.8t loom leaves a bit to be desired as it doesn't run a knock sensor. Which you want in a boosted engine.

Coatech in carnoustie get good reviews. They seem to be going like a fare all the time. Worth a phone.
