trispage 0 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 Hi all, been a long time but i've managed to get bacl again. The only problem being i'm back but the VR isn't. A Drastic loss after trying to be to competetive with an R32 on the M27. To many revs, not enough oil, old chains have resulted in a big bang and goodbye VR. Now forced to drive around in Astra sxi until my financial situation allows for another VR. Link to post Share on other sites

Nerih 0 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 hi im interested in what mileage you were at too. Link to post Share on other sites
trispage 0 Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 87.5 thou on the mileage, my fault though i knew they needed doing but thought they could wait a bit. Nice insurance man gave me 1.5g for it so need to either find a cheap doer upper or save like crazy. Link to post Share on other sites
