Nice!

What you want is a real Volkswagen family!

Dad - Passat TDI

Mum - Beetle 2.0L (Used to have a polo 6n)

Me - The baby of the family :)

Have a look at "green devil"'s 4 car garage, beetle, golf, caddy, lupo.

The family we bought the lupo from had a polo and golf too.

We did look at a toureg the other day... lol, out of budget now!

Silver? its blue... lol, yeh silver cars are nice, but nothing better than the blue on this car, cos no other model of golf has it. Dad is so pleased as ppol constantly stop him to ask him about it (everyone says "what a lovely colour"). especially pleased about a female garage attendant asking him all about it the other day and if it was the model with "the silky smooth engine" lol. he never had that with his volvo, also he doesnt have to reverse in our lanes for anyone!

Finally convinced your dad that it is a saftey risk having the car so high! Only about 4 8-hour days and u can afford them! But then set aside as much as £75 for the tracking afterwards. Only 189 for these look: Coilies on ebay

u can drive for a while without adjustments if u get it roughly right, but not for long or your tyres will get fukd.

thats the idea, as high/low as u want. just get a quote or 2 off local garages, they only need to align the fronts as the rear is just a bar.

I like Dann's Arosa, just needs moar lows though :lol:

Nice pics taken that day.

I like it too, just never been sure about stickerbombing, a lot of fun sure, but the overall look of stickerbombin in general im not sure of.

think he needs some slightly glitzier alloys, but then again any lupo next to yours, looks A- high, B- like its wheels are too big!

Loads of nice pics tho!

Ha true its just stickerbombing isn't that common down here so it looks different.

Id of said yours needs more lows tbh. Wheels look to small against the arch gap.

Send me shorter springs and sort out the roads and I will do it just for you :whistle:

Just had new rear pads fitted (brembo) as the last ones were dead, i also have a very irritating squeak when going straight (over bumps) or when on long left corners, i assumed it was the pads squeaking, seems not :/ it is impossible to identiy exactly where on the car it comes from, just left of me lol and slightly back. it seems to vary a bit down the length of the car, it hit me today that it must be related to my low exhaust, plan to strap it up on monday and check all the brackets are done up tightly, i think it must be twisting along the car? hopefully able to cure it cos its very annoying! also why do u need a stupid bloody key tool to push back the rear caliper? whats wrong with a g-clamp like the fronts have? stupid vw making life as difficult as possible by having so many tools!

Theres my update!

Looking forward to admiring Newnsie and Jabbles21's new lows nxt week!

Hehe, looking forward to it too. I have mine booked in for MOT tomorrow at 1. I think it may come close on front Pads :rolleyes: May need changing, is it easy to do the fronts?

fronts are 10 min/side, will give u a hand with them next week if necessary, pads are probs only part of your worry, when i tried your car it had no brakes at all, jake said the same, so fitting some of those would be a good start!

I need to change my front pads to brembos to match the back now, cos they are soo much better i feel the rear is really slowing the car now, massive change, had to brake hard for a bluddy prius who pulled out on me doing 3rd lane motorway speeds when he was doing 56 behind a lorry i was only about 25m behind him closing quick, he looked sheepish afterwards cos his wife was yelling at him! but the rear brakes were sooo sharp the locked briefly, never had that on the rears before (on a warm quality road surface), seriously impressed! and they were only £17 quid for the rears!

Ah cool, Ben any idea how much bremo ones for the front would be? As i probably need new pads ASAP :lol: Im used to my brakes though.

These be them, Brembo Pads

Cecked they were the correct ones here: Great Topic!

Great for me cos u cannot get pads or discs for my car from halfords!
