Tome Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) Mellows looking excellent atm! Picked up my one last weekend, Y reg, in yellow, with the lacquer peel and cracked rear bumper paint too lol. I'm rocking the cassette player too Only missing the rear headrests and parcel shelf which I'd at least like to have. Not done anything to it yet but all sorts of ideas running through my mind now I've read through this! Edited March 17, 2013 by Tome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arosaproject Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 (edited) So not posted in a while as i haven't had much to post about really plus been very busy at work again, Well i have good news and bad news......... Good news is i have got new seats in and people who attended the last meet would of seen them Not much.. by Aroasproject, on Flickr Not much.. by Aroasproject, on Flickr Then i have new plates for mellow and if you look at my sig you will see they are different, my early birthday present from the old man, still waiting for paper work so i can put them on If you know my last name you will get the plates Not much.. by Aroasproject, on Flickr So that's all the good news and now for the bad, 2-3 days ago i came home from work, sorted a few things out and went to go back out and mellow now doesn't want to start, turns over and fire's once and then just turns over and over, as work is still busy and finding the time to look at it, she just sits on the drive, had green flag have a look and they say it isnt alarm could be a relay for the fuel pump?? but to be frank i haven't a clue whats wrong with it, nothing on the vagcom all fuses are fine, so the next few weeks going to see if it can be sorted, if not good buy arosa as this has been a pain in my arse since day one and to be frank i think it has got the better of me now, so it could strip everything and sell or maybe an easy fix time will tell really But on a good note this is my new daily, old skool baby haha Not much.. by Aroasproject, on Flickr Not much.. by Aroasproject, on Flickr If anybody has an idea or has seen an arosa\lupo do this before, please let me know Edited April 21, 2013 by Arosaproject Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James827 Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 try a constant live to the fuel pump. also have you checked its not ignition system? would be a shame to get rid of it now, youve put lots of hard work into it and tidyed it up quite a bit!

Arosaproject Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 We know the fuel pump primes just a case of seeing after that, will have to see what happens, have been told a few things to try so going to go though the list one by oneAs the relays arn't that much money going to go though them 1st or like you said main feed pump, fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arosaproject Posted July 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Haven't been on here for a very long time.......So after 3 months of the Arosa sitting doing nothing as it was broken, i did nearly strip it and sell everything (sold seats to cethin as she really wanted them)But now i work different hours and get a lot better money, so things are about to change, i'm going to finish this car if it kills me lol So i gave up with little companys that said they could sort my car and got it booked in at seat Took a while to get it on trailer lolBack from the dead2 by Aroasproject, on FlickrOnce car was pushed on i couldn't open the door lmao, so had to climb though the boot lol Back from the dead2 by Aroasproject, on FlickrA couple of weeks later got a phone call and went and picked it up (was very impressed that yea said its in quite good nick apart from the paint lol), booked it straight in for mot as that had run out plus the tax, gave it a massive clean and raised it as me mot man doesn't like low cars lol Back from the dead2 by Aroasproject, on FlickrWith a stroke of luck all the car failed on was the drivers side front flexi (was rubbing on coilovers) so passenger side and drivers side was ordered and fitted and the went for re-test, and now the old girl is back on the road and i have to say i have missed driving it..............Back from the dead 001 by Aroasproject, on FlickrBack from the dead 004 by Aroasproject, on FlickrBack from the dead 003 by Aroasproject, on FlickrSo ive treated it to a new set of wheels (put deposit down) and a new interior (deposit down on this as well) once ive picked the interior up its going for a retrim, next after that is paint but something has popped up so paint money is going on that and it will hopefully be getting paint in the new year.........

Both cars are Y reg 2001 one being a sport and the other a s modelMellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on FlickrSo i still have two jobs on the arosa to do, one being air bag light and need to replace all disc's and padsOn the loop as in running things, i just need to replace the down pipe (had to do this on the arosa) as its gone on the flexi pipe part, as i know callum, i know whats been done since he's had this carSo the loop came with recaro interior, kw coilovers, 16" golf alloys (in a lovely colour, my camera doesnt really do it justice) that im going to keep but i am keeping me eye out for some thing else in the future, leather door cards and a few other little bitsMellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on FlickrAfter a wash, polish and wax (loving the reflection)Mellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on Flickr So future plans for the loop are get some paint done, few marks here and there but still polishes up very well, get a re-trim on the seats (have few ideas at the moment) get the back end down a tiny bit more, have a play with some wider adapters, source some cambridge lights, replace the lower front bumper, plus the rear (i have one of these already) Put my private plate from the arosa to the loop, change the rear view mirror as its gray for a strange reason, even tho it has black plastic's?? Plus a few extra bits but going to keep them to myself for now Going to try and have paint done by start of show season next year and go from there So heres some more random pic's i have taken Mellow + 1 002 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 003 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 004 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 005 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 006 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 007 by Aroasproject, on FlickrNice pic after cleaning, loving the refection shot Mellow + 1 008 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 009 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 001 by Aroasproject, on FlickrMellow + 1 by Aroasproject, on FlickrSorry if its a bit random, tried to get a lot in a short writing lol Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
