Filled up with petrol today and going to see how many miles I can get out of a tank!

And as far as the speakers go I think some sony's are best I stuck some in my old lhd mk2 gti which had the same problem, I also have some JBL 6x9 which could be cheaky...

OH DEAR ONLY GOT 330 MILES OUT OF ABOUT £50 DISSAPOINTING, especially as my Passat 20v Sport returns 400!!!

Are the coupe's days numbered ?

for a £50, 330 miles is bit :thumbsdown: as i roughly get 400+ miles in £35 full tank. did you manage to get those sunroof metal thingy and if yes where from and how much matey? many thanks.

Did not get the bits for the sunroof, guy on here said just remove them but I am going to try a breakers.

Was considering selling the coupe, but I really cant let it go. Going to keep it and sell my Passat and Probably get a small diesel for my work car!

Maybe fit a 1300 with a 5 speed box in the summer .

Think I will change the engine and gearbox oil next week and see if that helps. Then use it for a week as a work car and give the Passat a week off.

And of course going to Brighton this Sat night.

Any advice as far as getting the old one out?

Fitted the lamnda. A week later the clutch cable snapped.

Now getting about 300 for about £35 so better, the coupe is staying the Passat is going. I still want a door and a 5 speed gearbox though.

Did clutch cable today. so nice not to have the biting point on the floor. If anyone else is going to have a go, take your your front seats, stick the car on axle stands and remove drivers front wheel just for access. Its a easy job.
