Found a power steering pump It's in Chelmsford & it's still on a car but it'll be with me Friday latest, 40 quid posted with 90 day warranty, that'll do pig.

Isnit. I don't like Mk3s but love Mk3 cabs for some reason, I nearly swapped the loop for a green one a while back.

Lovely set of dubs there mucker

Same as Mrs Koop's 6n2, except we didn't get as far as changing the pressure switch, she just traded it in for a Golf

Great pics Ray. I'm going to have to try & make it next year, it's a fair way but considerably less than 407.2 miles
-
I hear you have a Mk2 now. Spill.

What's next? Joining the ever-growing club lupo Mk2 sub-club?

Matt black has been done to death but might look good with a carbon roof. I wouldn't do the bonnet though, too fast 'n' furious. Satin white...interesting, would be an arse to keep clean but then so is black I suppose.

Well the Golf's temporarily dead Power steering pump's gone. Guy I bought it off told me the belt was loose & gave me a new one but it turned out it was the wrong one, our Dave tightened up the existing one & the pump started making a godawful racket & the fluid reservoir was bubbling like crazy & pissing fluid out of the breather hole. Looks like a previous owner has slackened off the belt to stop it making the noise so now it's been tightened up it's running at full chat & chewing itself to bits. However he says the engine's sweet & he can't find any other issues apart from the aux belt which is a bit cracked & the cam belt cover has a clip broken. He's getting the aux & power steering belts in today & I've just gotta try & find a decent second hand pump so I don't have to pay 120 quid for a new one. It's cost me £150 so far for the cam belt, oil & filter which ain't too bad.

How cheap's cheap enough? You might as well get them & paint them at the same time as the car

Same. Any suspension made for a Lupo will have a separate spring & shock setup on the rear, because Lupos have a separate spring & shock setup on the rear. Simples.

Went too far with the Hello Kitty imo but it's your car & I'm sure it makes you smile - my vintage japanese floral interior did for me & all my mates hated it haha

Open air, tidy.

Sounds like some crazy bureaucracy you have to deal with getting a car registered over there. Cheap insurance though, winner!

Koop replied to JoeA's topic in Member's Cars
I've got one but it's got a wee crack in the middle, it didn't like being posted. Any good to you? -
I know, I want one tbf I do a fair bit in the car park out the front of said Dave's garage, and occasionally borrow his tools
-
I have few tools & no garage, not even a drive! Dave at the local garage sorts me out cheap anyway.
