Koop Posted May 15, 2013 Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 Noice motors, we were looking at the 1.6 derv 6r for Mrs Koop, though she's got her heart set on a 'rocco now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted May 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 (edited) Noice motors, we were looking at the 1.6 derv 6r for Mrs Koop, though she's got her heart set on a 'rocco nowYeah, My mrs wanted a Rocco TDI also, but she's a totally **** driver, so would be paying for carpark dings all the time in anything bigger than a polo with the poor visibility of a rocco.Plus the insurance was more than triple on a Rocco TDI. It's crazy, I must be old but I can insure a 2.0T for less than half her insurance on a 1.6TDI polo, despite that she's about 3 crime rating groups better off than me! Yeah I though it might have been a boss's car, doesn't look abused!Yeah, It's a lovely car. Bodywork isn't perfect. Few scratches and dents here and there which show that it did get used by a few people with a lack of care.

nfbr Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 So, At the weekend, I got a bit of a deal on these...Golf-R front and rear powder coated black brake calipers - to suit 345x30mm Front discs and 310x22mm rear discs.Because apparently 312x25mm front and 286x10mm rear brakes just aren't big enough... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted August 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 So, the brakes finally went on: Old front:New front:Old rear: New rear: Running slightly used discs at the moment to save a bit of cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
