Silver W reg S3 on Didsbury Road down off Heaton Moor this afternoon, I was the pushbike who kept getting in the way :whistle2: thought maybe @Tj 0785 had got his going but seems not...so who else is local?

Skint? :tearsofjoy:

6N2815645 Fits to front of filter housing. Poorly fitted scuttle panel more likely the problem. Also, make sure the rubber piece on the end is hanging down, and not forming a nice channel for water to run into.

£230 each?! :scared2:

Never got the third headrest thing. How often does anyone have rear seat passengers, never mind three at once?! ETA: Looks awesome! :thumbs up:

Two at Awesome this morning...one in the workshop looking stock, one parked up outside not so much!

Looks ******* amazing!! We've been here before, your ISP is doing something weird.

I was a graduate software developer once, I still don't know **** about tuning :) Also this thread is from 12 years ago...

No idea :footy:

Normal? No. Seized compressor?

Resurrection I know...but...Gops spotting on them there YouTubes!! About six minutes in...

Silver paint? Leave them, say they're "(new) S1 inspired" :whistle2:

Just the boot so far, driver’s door may need doing but I think the culprit there is really the hinge sagging. No sun roof so I (luckily?) don’t have that one to worry about. I’d bet it’s just drains clogged with leaves etc and the void under the scuttle panel flooding? If you take it for a spin...

Agree with those saying that they're nice things but need a lot of work. I'm not mechanically gifted either and must have put at least the purchase price back into the car again, just in doing all the things that age - bushes, locks, seals, that kind of stuff - and there's still more to do...

I've got original genuine mirrors, admittedly they've suffered 15 years of wear and tear but I don't think they could ever have been that shiny. Can compare if you like.
