I just leave the bonnet shut most of the time ;-) @Darren S

yeah just loads of heat cycling and 16 year old plastic, not much you can do really! @Darren S

@Cookson because they're cool

I don't think so matey, there was no part missing as such, just cracked and the panel to subframe drop link snapped off

The faceless clio, back on the deck so I can just clip front bumper on and off as I'm working on it over next few days. Arch liners cleaned up and pikie fixed for the bonus points Old skoda splitter off, bit of damage on bumper, they take some hammer though daily use, so despite being...

Right, ripped bumper off to fit carbon stuff, got distracted by rust chasing instead but made a bit of fit and start progress and nice to clean up the arches and hopefully halt tin worm So bumper off Dirty face Dirty arches Cleaned Rust Treated Face cleaned

Great find! Looking forward to seeing pics

Great stuff, always wanted an rsi. Yes they're called the same over here! Have you kept the standard interior so you're keeping the original clocks etc?

Where do people source this elusive Adam's stuff from? Appears to be American and not available on eBay out amazon or all the normal places?

Carbon ftw, this is my 7 year old 100k mile use snappy

Most recent one for me was for the phase 1, Andy's work is still on point!

Welcome back and glad you found another mk1 and again nice that you're restoring it to presumably pretty much as standard as you can. If you haven't already you should join the mk1 16V Facebook groups, we're an odd lot us mk1 owners but welcome all with open arms :ROFLMAO:

Looks mint, had mine done identically but perforated leather lower section about 7 years ago now and still looks great so you'll get many many years of enjoyment out of it

Yeah that's the chap I've spoken to, and then I have this possible northern contact who could help locally.

A chap on Facebook but unfortunately shut down now, however I've got another Facebook contact and possibly a local one too to investigate for more stuff I want doing

Walk away, if it's in that bad a shape and braking system been left that long without proper maintenance I'd worry about the rest of the car tbh

Had my upper inlet and fuel rail guard done in September last year, around 8k miles ago and it's on the daily so used over winter. I've not cleaned or touched the bay really since. Chap who did it gave them coating of ACF50 before posting to me Pics taken literally five minutes ago...

I'd love one matey, but I'd love fresh belts for her more currently unfortunately.... Every day is cambelt roulette day!

above happened to my 182 as some animal made a mess of jacking it up, had to have it chopped out and welded up

We're all finding out now that some are just prone, you need to get rear doorcards out and check inside for rot as they tend to rust from the inside out. 2.5 with no history is a little high, but flamer is desirable colour and they're all on the up so wouldn't worry really, you won't loose...

Vac and a clean and brought the mini me out too

:ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Do you have a link or model number?

I'd like the big brother too but need to rummage down back of the sofa for that kind of cash

I get why other people lose history, other people I tend to find are useless. Keep all mine together, folder per car and never let anyone else file it for me, seemples. Not really organised other than the order I stuff the reciepts in though

Flol, literally amazing

Bought the 3/8 stubby milwaukee on @dann2707 recommendation and got to say it's brilliant. Bought the larger battery for it aswell and it's a great little thing, saved me loads of time as a home mechanic.

Do you have any space anymore with all the other crap you keep buying :p

I need more sets, only got 2 currently and 4 cars so that needs sorting. Fantastic wheels

Found some William's wheels and a brand new in box speedline Vega in the attic last week too @0ss 🤦‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:
