  1. The engines coming along good, gearbox and everything is back on, just need to put it back in the car now Wrist is a pain. Damaged my tendons which is 6 weeks healing minimum I can't bend all my fingers or take any sort of weight on my hand so I'm pretty useless at the minute.
  2. Indeedy. Henry's now been reduced to the grass as I can't drive him Hmmm, I suppose just keep looking, there's normally loads for sale! So today we're going to start putting my engine back in - very excited!
  3. I did consider it but I've managed to find a cover now anyway Ah fair enough, literally up the road then You'll be seeing them both on the drive for a while now as I've sprained/fractured my wrist so no driving for me Seriously? There's normally loads! What specifically are you looking for?
  4. Yeah that's how it always is. Can't wait to see what you do next
  5. Yeah I've seen one on eBay for £350, so I think just finding a cover might be the best option. I'm really not planning on driving Alva too much apart from to and from shows so I'm not too worried about the airbag
  6. Looking good I've got a big love for the schmidts
  7. Looking good, seems like you've got a lot of plans for this car - might be one to keep an eye on
  8. Loving the car as always Joe, it really is something special!
  9. Yeah I thought it was a good find bearing in mind that they were only released at the start of the year. I think that finding a cover is going to be difficult though... Thanks Where do you live and what do you drive?
  10. My latest purchase! Mk7 flat bottom steering wheel. I just need to get a new cover!
  11. Thanks Emz! It should be a lot easier now that you and everyone else is selling up
  12. Oh and I nearly forgot... The boyfriend adapted the wiring for my headunit so it'll now work in Alva!
  13. So its been a very long time since I've been able to update Alva! Yesterday she came home from the bodyshop and I can now show you all the work she's had done And the finished Alva... And back home! She's still got a long way to go, but at least bodywork wise she's pretty much there. So a list of the things which she's had done: Full exterior respray in Candy White with extra lacquer Sills straightened and detextured Door lines smoothed out Aerial removed Mk5 boot handle C pillar trim holes removing Door shuts and insides of the doors repainted Bumper resmoothed Arches rolled All interior plastics resprayed as well as a few bits for the engine I just now can't wait to get her back together and put the engine in!
  14. Definitely my boyfriends then He'll be dead chuffed lol
  15. Where did you see this and what colour was it?
  16. As above, this was an amazing Lupo. It's a shame to see him go but I'm sure your new project will be just as good if not better!
  17. Thanks Yeah i can't wait to show Alva off again but that won't be until next year
  18. Thanks for all the nice comments! ^_^I can't wait to get Alva back from the bodyshop and get this engine back in.Got loads of things to buy and some things to hide
  19. To be honest I've only just got them, ill probably keep them until I'm done with the tdi, so up to a year.
  20. Indeedy they are They're 14", 8j on the fronts and 9j on the back. Not sure about the et If I ever part with them then ill let you know first
  21. So there's nothing much to update apart from I finally got round to changing the discs and pads! Oh and the bottom arm! Henry actually stops now so I'm happy!
  22. So I haven't updated in ages! Alva's still at the bodyshop but I'm hoping she'll be back next week, so there will probably be loads of photos! In others news, we finally got round to doing a bit more on the engine, cambelt and sump on
