    120k ibiza Tdi 130 sport, silly idea or not

    waste of time, car was a pile of ****. Cheap yeah but it had not seen any love for a long long time. The bits that i could say scared me off of the bits i could not see. The brakes were actually rotten on the rear, not just corroded but the discs were more like a cicular saw, how it got...

    Turbo blew at dealers!!!!!!

    they broke it they pay for it end of. You have no guarantee that they did not buzz the engine by wrongly downshifting, caned the nuts out of it etc, there is too many unknowns. If the engine had gone on the loan car they had let you have ( if they did) then you would have to sump up for...

    Guys, anyone know anything about this LCR

    Yeah think my mind is made up on that one now, just seen another one at a dealer with 49k on the clock and 4900, But also just seen a TT roadster with 41k for 6800 ono. or do i just stick to the plan of a 120d beemer and be semi boring. I hate having to buy cars, as i am so indecisive.

    leon cupra track car [more power coming]

    don;t forget the cage. also one pointer. if you are going to be taking this to the ring youneed to get edges and stuff tidyed up. A set of the carbon fibre doorcards would be a good idea as any exposed edges and you won;t be allowed on. very tough on stripped cars now

    Is the standard radio head unit attached to the under tray?

    right, you are going to have to get a hacksaw blade to your standard facia. Once you have removed both the stereo and the shelf you will see that there is are two large notches that stick out to seperate the two units. These need to be cut off so that you can get the double din unit in...
