Thats my mates, genuine nice car. I'd buy it if insurance qoutes weren't over 4K

Wouldn't bother with it rob unless your were going to turn it into a fixie (look it up)

I'll be there, brands on the sunday.

Remembered seeing this at a race.

If i could i would.

Im booked off work so im definately there.

I did that mistake too. Picked up some from the forum for £15. O.E are the best looking.

I was watching my mate karting, which he went on to win and then went to a bbq. Money has been tight with having problems with the car and insurance renewal.

No non sports then, not quite the amount that were listed but looks like you had a good time and turn out.

Nice, the wheel cap probably wouldn't look so huge with some tyre black. Whats the point in the rear wiper, just to clean the brake light.

My 1.4 sounded similar and it was timing.

While your on the subject, when and how often should a fuel filter be changed?

I'd be picking it up and sorting it myself, the connectors may of corroded on the top brake light.

Looks shiney, bit of advice get some foam applicators for applying AG tyre dressing.

ok meg, i have your number so i will give ya a bell when near.

They can check the timing with a gun, once they remove the belt covers.

How does it responsed when you push the accelerater hard, Quite hesitate?

Simplier problems i had with mine but only a 8v. How does the car run other wise the 5K kick no exsistent.

I am going to be at Brands watching the trucks, soonest i could get there would be 6:30.

I just want to update this as i now have the car back, running as it should. Well it did turn out to be the cambelt which had jumped, causing it to come out of time. Water pump was showing signs of leaking so this was also replaced. I highly recomment Andrew Longs Garage(Chambers, Shell) in...

My car is in the garage at the moment and have just called to inform me that it has jumped a few teeth. He said there is no sign of a reason why it has, but is hoping it'll be fixed when timed up and new belt kit. Also replacing the water pump as he said this was showing signs it may of leaked...

£93 no thanks.

Looks in really good condition, if you change the wheels and want to sell those give me a pm.

I've got the car booked into a local garage for the cambelt to be changed alot with water pump. It'll basically be a 72K service, what other things would people suggest. Fuel filter, air filter, oil filter. I was also thinking of letting them doing the engine mounts but i may just do them myself.

Rob, bad times thing its head gasket :( getting some more opinions tomorrow and possibly booking it in to be done. I don't have the time to be doing or the space. Only thing im not overly clear on is timing so im going to have to get it done by a garage. I just started my new manager role too...

Has the steering got heavier? I would say it was the pump.

1. Megzy 2. Timmyd 3. Brownyboy 4. Clio-Ell (aslong as the car is fixed :()

There is none of the white residue on the cap or stick, nothing in the coolant bottle but smells a bit funny. Squeezed the hoses and all are soft. Removed a injector one by one today and all had effect, so rules out fueling/ignition problem. Someone has mentioned today maf and exhaust sensor...

The more i have been talking to people and searching on here the more it becomes apparent its the head gasket. How hard is it really to do it on my engine. Need it fixing asap, thinking now taking time off work and fixing it myself.

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (Spaced, streched, slammed more) I admire the amount of work going in to this. Will you upgrade the engine to complete the package?
