    Bought a VR hydraulic clutch hose but it doesnt quite fit. I must have a different Master on the Polo so went and got a nice braided one made: Then the ramp went tits up and ended up on the wonk so i had to take it all apart and lost the rest of the day

    These are left over from my VR6 Polo conversion and wondered if anyone can help.... This one is near the drivers side headlight, and has two pins, the black runs to a bizarre join (see second pic) and the other isnt joined to anything. Obviously was cut when we spliced the looms: Then theres this one on the passenger headlight loom: And im missing the header tank level if anyone knows what colours i should look for: Thanks in advance.....

Sumps due tomorrow, gaskets ordered just need to sort bolts! Once it was positioned I rigged up a battery and leads and turned the key. It turned over so at least its not siezed lol Had an hour today, and because I'm still waiting on parts I decided to just strip the front of the polo cosmetically (not mechanically u

    So here goes from the beginning starting on January the 2nd...... I recently gave into my Mrs and went sensible and bought a 2005 330d for daily duties. Therefore my toys needed to go, so my Mk3 VR6 has gone to my Mum and sold her Fiesta, my Audi Quattro Sport Turbo has gone to my Dad and we will sell his Merc, and ill have my Defender build to carry on with (see here: http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=readersrides&action=display&thread=77251) but as I well and truly have the dub bug I need something VW to play with as the caddy I also had has been sold to help fund a Tra

Firstly a pair of headrests to fill in the holes: Then some stickers: And also an exhaust So i got back and got it on: Decked: Only because it was jacked up on the back lol. And a pic of it all clean before the ECD meet yesterday:

    Today then, my new grille turned up: So rubbed it down with wet and dry: Also rubbed down my rear bumper to find filler! So thats being sorted plus some smoothing I also rubbed down my mirror caps too but didnt bother taking a pic. Got to collect my new front bumper Saturday and ill get that ready for paint too. Really need to find the Kamei vents that i want so the front bumper can get painted!
