Couple more bits fitted over the weekend! Some more successful than others lol ... Firstly, cruise control. Stalk cost £48 delivered off the Golfgti forum, 20 mins to whip the steering wheel off to fit it, then 5 minutes coding in VCDS. Now i can cruise along the motorway at 70-75, getting...

lol, just because hero really. Although i dont smoke, do drugs or drink a great deal, neither do i spend £200 a month on some poncy shirts or designer jeans, so the extra money on fuel is my little treat per month :o

Marc R's S2 ERST. Strangely the only car on this forum that i truly lust after now that Englebert has sold his CSL.

Lol, thats just getting to work ... Costs no more than if i got the train though, & takes less time. So still makes some kind of sense.

£450-500 a month usually. M3 swallowed £750 in January.

Probably 2 gallons in the golf tbh.

I dunno, the 197 driving bellend that was 2" from my rear bumper the other day was doing his best to get the worlds worst title i think.

lol, same. Although its usually me embarrassing the 1*2/197/200's these days. Especially the ones going onto motorways at 65-70mph ...

Is it an Insp1 or 2? Also, whats the history like before you owned it? Not exactly sounding promising at the moment lol. What brands are the tyres, etc.

I like the look of the estate version, in white. Then i could wear a high-vis on the way to work & not worry about congestion.

Same. Although id soon get fed up with everyone asking whether it had had a new front end lol ... Cars looks lovely, my 1st 1*2 was a stripy RB :D

Here you go :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Having read through this thread, id rather FailSport built me a racecar than TDF. Would certainly be more reliable lol. Shame to engine about the latest failure James, im sure Fred will sort it out, just...

Looks fine to me!! Driving it + mechanical maintenance > polishing it every day

29 lol. Which rather amusingly, is the same as my 'horrendously thirsty' R32 :p Still love the red 197/200's though, just need some Turinis and faded doorhandles ...

Nah, this is how you go from electric to V8:

Its awful lol, its a 2.0 french hatchback with less than 200bhp!!!

How many miles do you do a year these days Roy? Bet your VPower card has a few points on it lol ... FRS have great residuals though! Imagine if you'd bought a Meggy 250 for the same price :clown:

lol, did you get the V8 version?

lol, thats why i ended up in a 197 (albeit for 3 weeks). The new ('60 plate) 200 i wanted was £20k, but the '57 plate 197 with Recaros & 30k miles i ended up buying was £6.4k !!! If id sold the 200 after 3 weeks like i did with the 197 i would have lost thousands, with the 197, i made £125 ...

I'd warrant that if those people worked the depreciation/finance numbers out accurately, they would cry into their RenaultSport fleece when they realised they could have bought a 911 Turbo for less money lol.

Same. Never had any trouble selling any cars/parts, etc. Just price them correctly and they go within a few days. If something is special, it can command a higher premium, if its not, ie a standardish 1*2/standard 197+200 the only thing that will make it stand out is the (low) price. If the...

Perhaps its accounting you need to do as well then, that covers depreciation iirc.

Re: Audi TT Quattro Sport - Clio trophy 147/500 replacement! Have you ever driven a TT with a Haldex controller and decent tyres around a roundabout, at maximum attack? Harnesses are useful, they stop you being thrown out the side window. One thing they arent short on is grip lol. Looks much...

Roughly the same as the R32 then, thats useful to know ...

How is that even possible lol. They do teach maths at school in Scotland dont they?

With Recaros that would be outstanding spec. Without, id just move onto the next advert - unless the car was cheap enough to buy the seats aftermarket ...

lol, yours was on the floor!!! I'll only be dropping it by 15-20mm or so, just to get rid of a bit of arch gap and make it look less like a 4x4 ...

On a par with a car designed 5 years previously, wheres the progress ;) I just found mine lacked any type of movment below 4-5k - cant remember which exactly, & strangely seemed to have far less torque than the 1*2's ive had. Weight will have a part to play in that though im sure. I'll be...
