I'm not that Barry, just a small subtle sticker on the rear screen will do.

No gay angles or bright colours for me thanks :)

Any specific colour you want Guy? Any other takers?

They will be internal.

Hello barry!! :lol:

This thing has been getting on my tits recently.

Its come very very close to being scrapped in the past couple of days :lol:

5th time lucky with the rattle in the exhaust. its finally sorted. Although it now sounds like a tank due to having an empty cat, no midbox and a backbox with a gaping hole in it :lol:

Still, its not as noisy as that bloody rattle it had. Bits of cat stuck in various places rattling around :anger:

This is the split i noticed when working on the exhaust :lol:

New CV boot now fitted

Then yesterday when i had the exhaust off for the 5th time, i started the car up once fitted to see if it was blowing from anywhere still and noticed the petrol pump was leaking, quite badly :lol:

I'd already been mega pissed off from exhaust troubles, then i spot this. It was nearly the end...

offending item..

Luckily, i had a spare (as you do) and this is now fixed also.

Feeling a bit better now I've managed to fix some bits. just i have suspicions that the drivers side outer CV boot is split somewhere. As there is grease splattered on the inside of my wheel.

Couldnt feel anything, but need to have a better look tomorrow.

Will be pissed off if it is... but i have a spare boot also so will just have to wizz the shaft off and get this one swapped over too.

Think its hit the age/mileage where everything is going to start breaking now.

I can feel that the clutch is on its way out, just hope it lasts a few more months now.

True story

Didnt you know I've already killed 50% of the population of Finchfield (where i live) in the past few months :o

Did a bit of tidying up today..

Went from this (which is now covered in oil and shit)...

Tooo...

Trimmed to boot too, as couldnt get the panel i needed to cover the wiper motor etc. So just glued some vinyl over it :lol:

Looks so much better now, just because the cream carpet doesnt stand out like a sore thumb haha

Its still underneath, so when carrying dirty objects or Olly's mom in the back i can take the vinyl up.

GT steel as a spare, as my actual spare has a leaky valve. Thats why its such a big bulge.

I've got one of those platic boot panels. It has a big crack in, but you can have it if you want :-)

Tax and insurance are up on this at the end of July

Breaking on that date

Anything you want, drop us a PM

On another note, i have to say i love this car, even though i hate it too

£100... and minus a few annoying little problems its just worked all of the time... 12 months to be exact :o

Starts every time (all be it a bit noisy)

Its a trooper! and has done eveything I've asked of it (several shows and trips, I've done about 10K in it now)

Be sad to see it go :(

Seats LOL

You know the deal ;)

Remind me on, I'm sure there are some trim bits i'll be after ;)

  • Author

will do man :(

why break it? Stick some uncut suspension back on it and sell it on! Waste of a perfectly good car

  • Author

nah man, its a mess up close.

ill make more money breaking it. and thats all I'm after, i couldn't care less about saving a shitty polo.

Shame to see it go... but i bet far better examples have been scrapped...

Clutch gone, think its time to say bye!

Did me well, just not well enough, all i asked was one more month but it just couldnt hack it :(

RIP :(.... Have you got a set of struts mate ? Or even take them off these XD???

  • Author

Keeping the struts.... they will be my exchanges for when the coupe eventually goes onto Gaz coilies ;)

BITCHHHHHHH ... would if not be easier to get the Mk1 golf items ?

BITCHHHHHHH ... would if not be easier to get the Mk1 golf items ?

I think he will be getting gaz coilovers for a mk1 golf? or i'd hope so.... waste of a conversion if not.

Exactly what i thought lol ..

Ben could you pm me what you need for the mk1 golf conversion..

Hubs,coilys,driveshafts are what i have in my head. Just weighing up the options as i could get a decent set of mk1 coilys for the price of just gaz shocks and some ok springs tbf.

Wouldn't say it was a waste of a conversion, the ones he's got aren't really gonna do well if its a track weapon, plus he can sell them on!
