I think the ITB project just ground Ronee down over the years mate, a lot of time/money/love/effort she put into that car and I don't think she ever got the joy out of it she expected perhaps, enough to put you off really. think her and Gaz still have a naples mk 1 as a runabout however, so she...
ai, i'm not a mega poster and never have been, so never really a valuable asset to any forum I visit! as such I just sort of float about looking for useful information in whatever area I can find it, currently most of what I need/use is on here or RTOC, it used to be WC and C16v. round and round...
agreed, C16V was a great place a few years back and I have made a lot of friends through it, but basically I was a source of info on there, not collecting it. and its been going through a rough patch recently after the mess that the old owner left the admin team in and still has essentially, so...
the hi power silver is too much imo, a nice subtle silver will look brilliant on the standard naples :)
Luke......I have a bare set of Williams wheels with caps waiting to go Subaru grey for the new motor........if they don't look right on a 182 I will be selling them. but this will be in a...
see if you can see this link chap, standard cap colour I'm fairly sure

nothing of nothing now though chap if your going to rock the Williams wheels :)
i'd normally rock grey or similar for wheel colour choice, but with the car being so clean and o/e I reckon standard silver would set it all off lovely with the subtle o/e+ look. looking forward to seeing it on...
don't use blummin waxoyl if you plan to work on the car yourself in the future, I spend my life covered in the stuff now as its all over the underside of the car! lol!
they were very slightly darker I think, although perhaps that's placebo and the fact you never see them un-refurbished anymore, but they weren't as dark as the ones on drivers side of yours, passenger side is more like it from the pics, they look about right.
however, looking at it it seems...
Re: Black Clio 172 driven by a gorgeous girl ;) East Lancs rd, Worsley 730 this morni
shocking isn't it, blokes in cars looking at women, none of us ever do that ;)
doesn't work on my android phone, says it requires flash, links to install, already installed. it only does this for photobucket videos, loads of other sites I use use flash on the xperia, and all are fine, darn photobucket!lol!
i may well rip off the engine cover idea if thats okay Gaz? it looks simply stunning, i plan for anthracite p/coated inlet and guard etc then RB cover :)
lovely chap, just sort the mix matched centre caps and get them all o/e silver and your done
my mk1 is a little bit rusty, but its not bad, theres more rust on my 172 tbh
I think its that that does it, its the feel of a VW when its new, its sucks you in, but I've driven loads over the years and its literally after 6 years bits come loose, fall off, electrics go wrong, turbos blow, all sorts of general disintegration. the 56 plate works Passat is shocking, its...
:) sorry folks, I was too busy enjoying the car and the road to faf about with a camera! I was just excited to be enjoying the car again, so had to share my succinct feelings about it! ;)
I don't know, sometimes its good to have a bit of a harmless windup, if they choose to follow for no reason other than 'not liking the look of you/your car' then more fool them if they get pissed about on a wild goose chase.
me too, and imo its not iroically, VW's fall apart, no idea why they have a rep for good build quality, they are not built well from my experience when they age past like 6 years, they feel solid upto then, after that they flall apart
Boost + Sunshine + Country road full of quick straight blats and epic corners + spot on tarmac + Black Stone Cherry through the portable Minidisc (proper audio quality) = clio love
that is all
:evil:
