Your trophy has been cleaned far too much Dave. Used and abused, but awesome.

There's your problem. Get the car on the floor and give it another go. Strut tops should be loose before raising the car.

Bet you're a happy lad now! Such a nice car mate, a credit to you.

I did think Friday lasted a very long time...

A totally different car in my experience, they do seem more eager as standard than the ph2, but I think that's the cable throttle.

I heard the world stops turning when Fred actually sends a PM.

The hint is in his profile:

Bloody good price for the best RS going ;)

I'm sure you people just decide not to tell me these things until I've gone out and sorted the issue. Ah well, my car works, and that'll do me. It was only the CV joint that was ruined anyway.

Break it, buy another, start again. ;) But seriously I just had that done, which is just part of servicing... but singular expensive parts on a cheap car (imo) are often better sourced second hand.

Really? Shite. I left my old shaft round Mikes.... Only the CV that was knackard. Oh, and 200+ on a driveshaft for a car worth 2k? Not being tight, but that's madness!

The only ph2 I'd consider, bloody lovely.

I'm impressed you stuck to your word. (At Costco you said you wanted to make a meet soon)

Nothing wrong with genuine second hand though is there Fred? I mean other than not being brand new obviously...

I like that. Do they do a different grille for the mk3's? I know nothing past the mk2 if I'm honest. Rear wheels out while improve the looks a fair bit.

Brilliant now, but it wasn't the cause of the vibration. The top gearbox mount was fudged, so that's sorted that, the drive shaft has fixed my CV joint issues though :) Bugger. Should have popped over really.

Looks bloody brilliant mate, really do like your motor. Need my f1's on, now.

I replaced a shaft today on a driveway with just basic tools (oh, and Budgie off here). Second hand ones can be had for around £50.

Looks like a very nice morning/afternoon that. Nice pics too. Sorry I couldn't be there, but repairs had to be made. I'd have popped over tonight Rob, but I figured you and Sash may be having a nice coupley night in as Dan's away.

Make sure you don't let the guy leave until you are totally happy with it. Mine was 100% fine first time though.

Glossy. It's not like I use my laptop outside anyway.

Love that, very nice indeed. Looks like you put a fair amount of ££ into a 1.6, but it's not like most of it can't go into the sport you say you want. Not to mention you'd sell the bumper and spoiler for good ££ too.

I've had no issues with the screen I must say, so I'm not sure why you hate it so much?

Colour of the car?

The wheels suit it so well. Awesome.

If I were a mod, I'd set it up.

Good work, give us a review upon your return. I'm buying one soon.
