  8. well a mate is refurbin them so they will just be how they came originaly but tbh i prefer them like that, not too keen on them in just the one colour, think it kinda spoils the look. but each one to their own lol

  12. i had this fun job on sunday, thought i may as well change the side and headligts as i was takin the lot out. put in some halfords extreme brilliance bulbs and was quite suprised how good they are, and theyr bogof at the mo too
  13. well my sport had it except it wasnt the piston rings it was the whole bottom end, the pistons and cylinders had gone oval. because its a nickle plated engine it couldnt be re-boared so i had to have a whole new bottom end. the main symptoms are black spotting up the rear of the car and excessive oil consumption, mine was to the extent that i had to fill up with oil every time i filled up with petrol! as long as there isnt any sign of black spots up the back after its been taken for a good hard drive it should be ok.
  14. glad it all went ok! ive got a leak in mine but not sure if its the screen or the sunroof drainage
  15. they are carpetred black plastic liners that sit up inside the wheel arch, dont know why they are carpeted but they are lol.lupo ones should fit ok
  16. when mine went it would crunch everytime i put it into reverse. i had the clutch to the floor but it felt it needed to go a bit futher. hope this helps lol
