Think so!?

Very close to a Ford colour. I re did my centre caps when i had a set done from laptab, cant for the life of me remember what it was called though

yes, bottom bolsters will fall apart

v-fail, k-fail, race-fail to give them their full name ;)

No real issues. Most 'kangaroo' when cold, but that clears after a few mins of driving. Check for crunching above 5k especailly in 3rd. Dash aint that basic, AC is an option on a Cup, so might not have that, other than that it just has a more basic radio, and the dash top is hard touch plastic...

Ah checked your profile, MK3 The door strips are held by a torx bit. Open the door, near the lock mechanism there is a plastic bung. Remove this. There is a Torx 20 inside. Remove this (CAREFULLY!) i dropped mine in the door :(. Then push the whole strip towards the back of the car. The rears...

what shape dude? Mk2 (172/182)or mk3 (197/200 shape)

cant get them in 60mm fitment :(

You must sell a lot of plug tops at 20 to own that ;)

Already? ;)

without!!! Total pish mate!

If your doing them yourself, get the paint from these guys www.auto-paint.co.uk. They sell the Ixcel paint in rattle cans. (if thats what your looking for?) had some off them when i had my 182, perfect match.

One of the last on a 55, nay bad! Them swirls made my love affair with BG last about 6 months lol

Prefer cup packed ones on 182's

Awesome. They miss some nice 4 pot Brembo's for me though?

You'll need to swap the cancel pin from your current phase 2 stalk into the phase 1 unit for the indicators to cancel. The horn is two spade connectors on the bottom of the stalk plug, on both phase 1 and 2 units

Will get some pics of mine :o, not uber lowered, but its set up to handle, no for cruuzin ;)

Treat it with kid gloves mate! mine was showing signs after a few months brushed every week too :( Look awesome though!

The 'pin pricks' in this pic Still, car looks mint mate, wouldnt change a thing :cool:

Noooo very good with decent pads mate!

Could you not squeeze to a VTS/GTi, Phase 1 172 even GTI-6? Keep the derv as a daily with the comforts, then strip/hardcore up the track car?

Imo it will sell for more. It also opens the car up to a wider market. Tbh, its not a deal breaker for me, but for some it is.

REALLY like that phase 1!

You dont need AC in the UK, but as i mentioned, it makes the car way more desirable to sell on

Yeah (off memory its the gf's car) Turn off car as normal, there is a little black button round the ignition key. Press this until a red LED comes on (located l/h side of your clocks). Lock with remote, indicators flash as normal, but the ultrasonics on the A pillars will disable. This is what...

Press the little black button on the steering cowel, until the red led comes on. Ultrasonics will disable, then stop you being woke up at 3am! You only forget once :(

AC weather you like it or not, makes the car much more desirable come sell on time, something to think about ;)

not as bad as people think. Gally on here knows the truth!

Aye, other half has a standard 106 GTI, love it! She used to have a VTR, i think they are a good drivers car, plenty of lessons to be learnt about handling imo. Just a shame loads fell into the wrong hands :(
