Yea moving house in June and will have nice big garage i can get the car into so i have been tempted to just do exactly that, for there are a few spots to sort out. But don't want to baws it up... So watch this space :D

I hear you JudderMan luckily i have done all that, but reason i have this is we are moving house was *suppose* to be a run around car.. I like the idea of wrapping the roof too, but only issue is i have bubbling on the rails so really should get all that fixed first. But then i think i should...

Well just got the alloys refurbished yest by Alloy Wheel Refurbishment | Refurbish Alloy Wheels | Refurbish Wheels | Alloywheel Repair | Refurbished Alloy Wheels in Cumbernauld, i did fancy new alloys but since i have pretty good thread on the current tyres the cost just didn't seem worth it...

So thanks for all the posts, now replaced the lock on the drivers door and now closes fine.. :D Now for the next thing drivers side replacement wing mirror glass..

I will tell you the tomorrow, mine in getting MOT and the belt changed won't get it back till tomorrow so will post up the costs.

Naw do not, i had bought it as a cheap run about till i move house. For had a 2010 WRX Sti Saloon before it but sold it cos i am moving house. But now i am spending 700 quid to get it though it's MOT i might just have to start making some changes. So will take some pics when i get it back. There...

thanks mate, will see how it is when i get it back. Now looking at better alloy's was thinking of punting it on after it got MOT'd but i won't get that ££ back so will just keep it :D

I hope this is true of mine and it will run sweet as, any ideas on the door tho. In saying that it might come back fixed with the amount of wedge it's costing me for this mot.

Figging 700quid worth of work to be done, i hate to think what it would have been if i had went to audi. And the garage i am using i have used before. Seems there is a list of things needing done.

Ok mate thanks will say that too when i drop the car off in the morning. Should maybe just give the guy a list, anything else you recon would be worth while?

Guy's Having a quick through the forum but unable to find my exact problem. When i shut the door it catches the latch but doesn't fully close. Now if i do it really gently it is sometimes ok but not always. Is this the locking mechnism that needs to be replaced? It's going in for a MOT...

Guys, anyone got any recommendations on body shops in and around stirling/falkirk area? got the bubbles on the roof rails issue and seems the previous owner didn't take advantage of the anti-corrosion warranty. And also got some rust spots at the front wings i would like to get sorted. Thanks...

Thank you very much ma dear ;)
