    New B5... coming soon hopefully

    I'm selling my Polo. The gearbox has died again and I've had enough. Might get a cheap and cheerful AEB. :P

    Cheap 1.8 TQS on Pistonheads - not mine - but looks a good buy

    Driving a Polo 6n2 16v now... not quite the same. :( I'm tempted to sell it and get a nice B5 TDi.

    My new ride

    Couldn't afford the high running costs. :( It is pretty nippy... 100bhp. Beats most small hatchbacks and they don't even see it coming. :P

    My new ride

    I've officially left the B5 world. It was fun but I do miss driving a man's car. :( Here's what I picked up last weekend:

    Clutch shopping list

    So then it also uses the same clutch as the non-turbo? Lame. No wonder they don't last.

    Clutch shopping list

    Bargain! Can someone confirm if AEB and AJL use the same clutch? I heard AEB et al is 228mm whereas AJL is 230mm? Is this true?

    Clutch shopping list

    Thanks mate. I've just realised my question is slightly retarded. :P If I was to change to an uprated clutch and SMF, what are my options. I heard an Audi 80 TDi SMF will fit with some clutch and should be good for decent amounts of torque. Any details? Also how would they compare, in cost and...

    Clutch shopping list

    Can someone give me a list of things I need to buy to replace the clutch on my 1.8T AJL quattro? Preferably with part numbers! Obviously I need a clutch - but what else? It's not really my area of expertise...

    Hazard relay

    I heard the facelift switches are the same as the pre-facelift ones, except with a different switch cover. Is this true? If so I have one in my garage. :D

    Hazard relay

    Hello!

    Well we've decided that we don't need two cars as the other half only needs hers two days a week. But I want to keep building up my NCD, since I lost two years, so I'm going to buy a "cheap runaround". :P

    Hello!

    Hi children! How's things? Just thought I'd update you... My TQS is still sat on my drive. :( I couldn't sell it on the run up to xmas, despite listing it on eBay twice and Autotrader. Had a few interested parties but they all pulled out or offered too little. Now it has another burst tyre -...

    Cheap 312mm caliper carriers for brake upgrade

    There's a chap breaking a Toledo V5 on eBay in Wolverhampton. He offered me calipers + carriers for £50 collected and obviously may go down more for just the carriers. I think they have 312mm brakes too.

    Crashed again...

    This is generally how I feel. I'm trying to sell the car too... I can't let it sit on my drive for X months while the claim is settled on the off-chance they may pay out to get my bumper resprayed... At the very least I would like to see the c*nt punished but I don't think the police will...

    Crashed again...

    But if I have to claim, that will effect my premiums even if it wasn't my fault?

    Crashed again...

    So basically as he's not going to make the claim on my behalf, I'm screwed?
