I have FK AK Streets. They're okay, only slightly more expensive than JOM coilovers. Still wish I waited a little longer and invested in some AP's though

Is anyone going from Milton Keynes area?

@lisagti

Can anywhere suggest somewhere to get my arches rolled im or around Milton Keynes? I don't wanna do it myself because it would most definitely go wrong!

Thanks x

Thanks, I shall give that a go before UD x

Could anyone recommend any cleaning products for my exhaust tips on my lupo gti? They aren't overly discoloured or anything but I want a polished finish on them for show season. I have seen some people mention Autoglym metal polish a few times but not much has actually been said about it. Thanks L xxx

Beautiful! Just makes me impatient about sorting mine out

From what I've read on the website I don't think there will be many trade stands either...

Thanks, think I'm just gonna go for the day out.

Think I'm going just to have a look. Gives me somthing to do for the day! Do they sell anything decent or is it just like a car boot type thing?

Has anyone been to Dubfreeze? Its the 25th year its been run and I was wondering if it was any good? Its being held on the 16th February. The address is: Bingley Hall Staffs. Showground Weston Road (A518) Stafford, ST18 0BD L xxx

My car will be off the road between Wednesday friday. Sending her off to get her MOT and have a full service so I can keep her history up

Seen on wednesday 15th . It had Rota wheels on as far as I can remember. Looked tidy!

True. I wish mine was lower but it only costs me an extra £30 a month to have a Lupo GTi instead of the Seat Arosa 1.0 that I did have.

Doesn't matter how much you pay on insurance, the GTi is worth it.

Nice! Sounds like I will be making a weekend of it then

Fair enough. I'll probably sort out what I'm doing closer to the time I'll have you know I'm the most sensible person I know

I'll either be down the night before if I can convince a few people to come with me, if not, I'll be on route at the crack of dawn as its going to take me just over 2 hours to drive up x

Unfortunately, I'm having to sell my pots. I have posted this in the classified section, but if you are interested, or know anyone who is, you can PM me on here. Thanks L x

No worries

You can get them on ebay but I'd be wary as certain transponders refuse to work with certain models. If I were you I wouldn't run the risk, just get one from a main dealer as at least they will be able to make sure you get the right one. Although, I don't know how vw dealership would feel about you not paying them for coding because you could do it yourself. They charge £90 for coding alone.

If you have vagcom you should be able to do it yourself if you get the flip key. I know the transponders in the normal gti keys are a bit temperamental sometimes, and one of the leads needed to code the transponder to the car are about £40 on ebay, and to get a new blade cut for the flip key is roughly £40 to £50. I only know this because I lost my main key and my spare key only manually opens my car so I got a flip key quoted

If you go to a locksmiths (I know some timpsons do it) they can get a flip key cut and coded for about £120 and they will also recode your current key to match as well so you can keep it as a spare. They do have to order the key from vw which takes up to 10 days as it will only have the lock/unlock buttons as opposed to the lock/unlock/boot buttons. If you go to vw, they charge just under £200 to do this. Hope this helps!

My 99 Seat Arosa S didn't have central locking either
