MR Sheen Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 Just joined and thought I'd say hi. I've bought a 1.0E for my son. He's 17 and still to pass his test. Its a non-runner project for us. It's head gasket went. So heads off and been skimmed. Gaskets and other parts have arrived, so this week will be rebuild time. Few other her bits and pieces to do to it too...noisy door checks for one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj1 Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 Interesting little project then. What colour is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weslangdon Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I bought a 1 litre for my son 5 years back we've had another 6 since, I'd previously driven Mk1 and 2 Golf GTI but had been driving boring stuff after they went, the Lupo's and Arosa's are addictive and fun. The only one I've not has is the super economical 3l and a GTI, I'm avoiding the later as I know I'll want one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR Sheen Posted January 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 All up and running sweetly now. I've removed the door bump strips, to give it a cleaner look for him. Pain in the butt to do. I'll get some before and after pics up.....promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usual scrape all the gravel away from where the jack is going to sit, then jack it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
