You say that but wait until you find that the wipers are crap and the headlights work about as well as candles. That's just the start! ;)

When I went for a ride in it I couldnt help smileing for the whole time I was in it.

 

Im like a child on christmas day

I was keeping an eye on pistonheads too for that one ;)

 

It's mad the amount of people don't respond to enquiries about cars for sale. I've emailed 5 people in the last week and not one has responded to my enquiries and that includes two traders!!

Thanks, I think we should organise a meet for owners round this area. I will look into that then, (noob question coming up ) what will the KR cam do to the car? :ignore: :oops:

It will give around 15 bhp and rev better. You can get the cam for around £20 and will be around 1 hour labour.Do a search ;) Good opportunity to change the rocker cover gasket while you're in there ;) Which local garages do you use? Blake Services in Thrupp near Stroud are very good- they've looked after my last 2.0 16v, VR6 and now my Octavia vRS.

Right ok, when it comes to engines ect I am a complete noob

 

rocker cover gasket :confused4:

 

I usaly go to one just down the road from me they are a small garage but never had any trouble from them

 

I have looked at going to power 2 go, they are a small porformance type grage in Ross on wye, dont know if they are any good tho??

 

http://www.power2go.co.uk/ this is them

[CazzaVR 0]

Not heard of them. TBH, I'd go with a VW specialist. There's a good (but quite pricey one) in Stonehouse, as well as Blake Services (as mentioned above :) ). There's also a very good place in Bristol called Streetwise, who I will try in the summer as their MOT/Service (using genuine parts) offer is amazing!

[Swompy 0]

cool, I will have to look in to it

 

Is there anything els that is a must do/advised

[Toad 0]

Or look up DG Autotech.... :)

[CazzaVR 0]

Was gonna suggest that too- fair bit further to travel (although undoubtably worth it!). Bear in mind, you'll probably come back from there with a 400bhp monster :lol:

Wot Tom said /\/\/\

 

They totally know their stuff. Really good guys who are both total enthusiasts themselves, which makes a big difference IMHO. Dave's car is pure genius!
