Spent 8 hours today getting the black crud off then washing and waxing. Scary when thats more time in one day than I've spent cleaning my last 4 cars over nearly 5 years. I forgot how much I actually like the smell of auto glym Used a bot load of tar remover and two old loyalty cards to get all the gunk off mmm shiny There aint much space in the back yard so the dog kennel had to be put to one side And I've got a name for it now. Introducing Nudge Need to get those other two alloys done I think Opinions?
-
thats the back done Got the bump stips off but then decided it was gonna rain so had to stop there. Still need to get all the sticky crud off the sides
-
whoops I may have just accidentally ordered a K&N as well
-
VIC passed Currently busy with the heat gun removing the bump strips etc Going to treat myself to some pressed pressed plates as well
-
Well VIC's paid for and booked in on Thursday next week Already put my mk2 sirroco wheels on Once I'm through the VIC will be sorting the insurance , tax then ordering some coilovers as a bit of a treat plus possibly giving the car a name Wish me luck
-
nice That will be my max budget I think if I go that way which pretty sure will happen sooner or later if my lass allows me to have the bankcard for 5 minutes
-
Cant wait to see the lo's when it happens Thinking I'll be going the same way myself. Mind if I ask how much the coilovers were?
-
Depends what you want I suppose.

Nothing really to update the last couple of weeks due to lack of funds amongst other things Well applied for the VIC and spoke to VOSA today to be told they are working about a week behind Gave the car a wash yesterday and hovered out the interior. I've been driving rat styled cars the last 5 years or so and never bothered about washing or cleaning at all unless you count emptying out old mcdonalds cartons etc Looking at a couple of induction kits on ebay atm I know it probably wont add to power/performance at all and in a toss up between ramair K&N and pipercross. Ramair being the cheapest but K&N being the better name in my experience.

Can anyone recommend a company for pressed plates? Checked ebay and seems most of the compaines on there dont do legal UK ones as they are in German font Thanks in advance

ok so at the moment my cars standard (its a cat C pending a VIC) I'm 39 with 2 years NCB and living in a NE29 post code. Been quoted about £60 a month on fully comp on a 1.4 16V pretty sure its 2001 can you beat it? If you think you can then may give you a shot but if not then will stay where I am. Know the info is limited but I work in a call center and hate having to call other call centers. Last thing you want to do after being on the phone all day is go on the phone again.
