Im liking the finish on those rear seats, looks like you wrapped it over the edge, how did you separate the material from the front and what glue did you use?

If it has a pollen filter chris can i have the black frame that goes on top to hold it in place?

You know you drive an Arosa when people ask you what you drive and they say what? and you tell them its like a lupo and they say what? You know you drive a lupo/arosa and girl says they like your cute little car and you get all defensive.

Thats a stupid stupid waste, fortunately the greatest loss was a now increasingly rare car

Can i have the black frame that goes on top of the pollen filter to hold it in?

I have seen vinyl diy jobs look excellent before and it certainly needs a lot less expertise than spraying, heres quite a well known one from the US Click!

Very good for going fast in straight lines only i should imagine

So come on then im eagerly awaiting the outcome, did the second MOT go okay was there more to do, did the police release the car?

Ive been on here a while now so its about time i shared a pic of my little pal 2004 Seat Arosa 1.0S Arctic Grey Metallic

Well i reckon the outer lip and inner bowl option is best with a shiny color on the other parts however i think a full polish would probably be worth the effort as they would look stunning

Well i dont feel so stupid now lol

How did you get the filter out? i tried it and just made a mess of the back of a light

Okay so i fancy spacing out my wheels so they fill my arches a bit better, the only thing is im not keen on hub spacers so having seen mention of stub axle spacers on another thread they seem like a good solution but there obviously going to be more difficult to fit, just how difficult and what ill need to do is what im after.

Very nice, looks like a really neat job.

Yeah me too until i got to the checkout lol i thought i would check they would actually let me order them before i posted it up in here and sure enough there was the extra vat at the till, sneaky.

Ah it would be £360 however your forgetting the VAT so really your looking at £407.25 and dont forget the tyres of course

I used to shoot a .177 break barrel type rifle and later a .22 webley hurricane but like others life took over.

Indeed the police have a job to do like anyone else, they are not unemotional and unfeeling if you act like a c**t towards them they can only shrug off so much and will use there discretion to throw the book at you but converse, be honest and helpful and friendly then you can get away with a friendly warning. Number plate, should have the standard correct font with the correct spacing and not have any nuts or bolts to alter its appearance those are the basics but read more here. Here's some details on the MOT as you will see it is only a requirement that the front seats be secure and the suspension be of satisfactory condition, here are a few more details on tyre condition but im sure they will be okay if has been checking them regularly with his tyre tread depth gauge, as for the painted engine cover i cant see any problem at all with that. Should sail though its MOT in which case lodge a complaint with the independent police complaints commission in which case you might be able to get the 3 points back and maybe get any costs re-reimbursed.

I understand VW starlights are like rocking horse poo now, let alone new so im sure this may be of use to someone (pricy though ) Seat Arosa 8 Spoke Wheels

I wouldn't have thought an extra 30bhp would stress it too much

Nice first car and nice to see where my old arosa lights ended up

I should imagine given the response youll get plenty of interest.

Yep it was me who asked and after a look all i found was more dash less than a couple of centimeters underneath, enough room for my DAB ariel but lots of fannying about to run the cable to it so for now its stuffed behind the CD player.

Mystery solved maybe, the K&N website says you can use the same panel filter on a 1.0 or 1.4 but a 1.4 needs 2 filters while the 1.0 only needs one. K&N Product Information for 33-2159

Well ive been looking at these Minator replica wheels for my Arosa, theyre available in a number of fitments Linky
