Was just a thought, if you were sending it back I'd have put it on retention, not to worry... Any updates with the car? -

Matt, what did you do with the M8 JKW plate just out of interest? Loving the engine polishing, sets the bay off really well, glad you're sticking the car back on RH's too, they're the only wheel for a Mk3 in my opinion... -

ahh, my old beastie! Pics of what it was originally like when I built it, shame the RH's have gone astray -
Well, that's taken me nearly an hour and a half to read and digest! Interesting reading for sure! What I came round to thinking is that an hour and a half is about half the time it would take me to drive from London to Derby to get my money back. If there are still people waiting for refunds I can't believe you've not been up there asking for your cash in preson. After all most of us drive that far every other weekend during summer to stand in a field or on a disused runway and show our cars, let alone when there's nearly £2k at stake in most cases!! Hope everyone gets sorted out soon!

Cheers chuck, I'll aim to get there early on then.

Claire, would it be really cheeky of me to request an early-ish morning run? I have to drive back up to Blackpool that afternoon and will be stopping in at Stealth en-route. Ta!

Strictly's are all carbon too, aren't they??

If I figure out a way to keep the VR and buy the house I'll be there, so put me on the reserves list if you would Claire. Cheers!

what wheels are these
dusty_mauve replied to kil2002's topic in Wheels, Brakes, Suspension and Steering
They're ZW1's that have had the centres painted balck and wider lips added.. -
Sounds like th carbon canister to me, is it on the drivers side? Could be a faulty ABS sensor, it's quite common on the Mk3
-
it's all about how smooth the torque curve is too...

Induction Kit... Which one?!
dusty_mauve replied to vr6matt's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
Ram Air for sure! Oh and they're as big as a lamp shade! lol -
I used a wire coat hanger wrapped in insulation tape with a little hook on the end to pull the cables thru

you don't need to colour code the bumpers if you remove the arches, I like the way it breaks the car up with the black textured bits, hence how my car looks
