    Surely a little interior panel fab would be easy with some filler? I remember I used to build boost gauge pods back in the day, and will have to fab up something for my ACT gauges in my new RS

    My new toy - WARNING - ESSEX CONTENT!!!

They would trounce a Golf GTi 16v instandard form, let alone after a couple of tweeks.A totally different...

    My new toy - WARNING - ESSEX CONTENT!!!

    So, I sold the Monaco 172 to Mark off here, a local who lives on the same street as Jesus. He seemed pleased enough with it, and I was a little sad to see it go. However, that evening, I was on my way to Blackppol (Essex of the North) with a fist full of cash, but reservations in my mind. A...

    Replacing a injector. How much?

    Fire up the car, unplug each injector one by one. If one of them doesnt make a difference, thats the one that needs replacing. Get one off here from someone breaking, or from clio spare, fit yourself. Should take 30mins max. It's only 2 bolts holding the rail in

    mot? have i gotten a good price?

    Spanish - A service is usually £100 or so. Then a £40 MOT, so you paid £35 to have a CV boot fitted. About right that
