    marco what sort of hillclimb stuff do you do and where do you do it? would the VR not be better than 16v for that sort of stuff with more torque?

    Haha I have had that terrifying moment where you are waiting for the 4K rev push but then remember you are in a 1.4 petrol 206!!! Usual requires a quick change of boxers!

    Ah sorry just re-read the post. A mate has the straight 1.9 d with 200,000 on the clock. I have no idea what is holding it together, the bonnet hit his windscreen a couple of months back when he was doing 70(with the wind behind him) on the motorway. Great French design!!! haha

    Ah a 306 DTurbo, cracking wee motor! I came very close to buying one of those resently....might yet!

    Saying that, I would be very happy with a 412 BHP daily driver!!!!!

    Im guessing you aint meaning a VW bus??

    Thats a lovely daily motor mate and looks to be in great condition. I thought from the thread that you had just bought it??

    The cover for my fuel doesnt sit flush with the bodywork anymore. I presume it has lost a stopper that it should rest on. Consequently it sits in rather than flush. When you lock the car and the pin goes into to stop it being opened, it forces it back into flush position. Anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it? It looks rubbish so any thoughts would be very welcome. Cheers

    Was just wondering what other cars people have as well as their VR6? Anything interesting?? There must be a few hiden gems and weekend / project motors!!

    Mate, i am about to have a go at getting my dragon green's paint work sorted. Always interested in what other people are using? did you have a polisher or just by hand? came up a treat! cheers

    mate as a premium member I think that you get 10-15% off as gsf so I would suggest you definitely price them at least.

    You now have a good clean hard base so when you wash it, the dirt should come off easily leaving your nice wax shine behind. You could at this point go over it with some quick detailer spray and cloth and this would bring it up even more ;-) Dont worry it isnt a wasted effort, it will still come up nice and shiny. I personally use the autoglm shampoo to wash the car and it comes up a treat. Hope that helps. Cheers

    if you did the first two steps of the three step Megs stuff and then used SRP, would that not take off the first two steps? Just a thought? Yeah dont be wiping over with a dry cloth or it will just scratch your nice paint work. Cheers

    Cheers Ben thanks for the link. I am liking those wheels, where do you find them??

    Has anyone done a post as to how to DIY refurb the original Alloys? Cheers

    Im watching with interest mate cause I am suffering the same problem. was all fine, then I gave the interior a good clean the other day and since then, I cant get the wee bugger to switch off!
  20. twoscoops
    Excellent mate that sounds like the boyo. Yeah it does sound like a milk float! Cheers for the help all.
  21. twoscoops
    haha mate thats never good...mines not too far away from being that bad. Worst when you back off when you have been booting it a bit.
  22. twoscoops
    I wish mate, unfortunately it is completely standard at the minute. cheers
  23. twoscoops
    Well that is a possibility mate because I have noticed that it does pull slightly to the left and I had been thinking about getting it 4 wheel aligned.
  24. twoscoops
    Guys My engine makes what can only be described as a whining noise when it is started from cold. Any thought? It doesnt sound like the marble description of the timing chain. Cheers!
  25. twoscoops
    No mate, I bought the car about a month ago and the history shows that nothing major has been done in the last 6-9 months. I am planning to do the service myself but if I cant bottom this out then I might have to get someone to have a look at it. Cheers
