Not easier picking up a tdi caddy? You will need the loom, ecu etc from the golf. Depending what age of caddy and golf they are then you will probably need to modify engine mounts aswell. John

Adjusted the idle screw on your inlet? John

You get a beanie for your knob... haha! John

Exact same two words that I thought when I saw this! John

I'm not sure how relevant this would be now but about 6 years ago I got quoted from a local guy £150 for the top part of one seat on a 306. It might have been that he just didn't want to do it though. Best to find a good upholsterer and just enquire for a quote mate. John

My apologies, I wasn't thinking that far ahead. I'm not expecting it to be perfect for a first time but I get picky with things like this so would be hoping to give it a good go! Any recommended panel beating tool brands? Any preferred filler etc to use? My pal does alot of damage repairables so he has offered to help as well. John

Good news! You can get a mechanical boost or an electrical one. I've got prosport electrical ones to fit but m using a meh animal one just now. John

205 black Gainzy. Unfortunately polish won't take out any of these defects. It would appear that the previous owner wasn't very well liked, and accidents during storage for the last few years has resulted in alot of bodywork needed. Cheers for the input Neil. I'll be sure to use it. John

I thought silver ep82 was Gary! Shame as I've dealt with him and met him in person and he was spot on with me Hope you get sorted out John

Evening all I've been contemplating prepping and painting my car myself for a while now. I was looking for feedback and personal experiences from people who have had a bash at it or who do it for a living. What material is best used for filling? I know prep is a massive part in this so what sort of processes have you used etc? This is more to see if I will bother trying it or not but I'd really like to be able to do this. Cheers John

There's the speedo cable and a plug that needs disconnected before it will come out. John

That's handy to know. Never been told that. John

Between the block and the box or the box itself? Was it gear oil or engine oil? John

Innovits. I've got a set also John

Got two gt front calipers complete as far as I can remember. John

Well I would have said shifting the hangers wasn't a difficult job. Especially if it's a good exhaust for little money. John

Between Banff and Fraserburgh dude, bout 40 miles North of Aberdeen. Nice base to start with, good luck with her. John

Welcome along dude. Not far from Aberdeen myself John

There's a resistor you can put in to keep the airbag light off after start up. Think it was Socks mate that was selling them but I can't remember John

PM me your number again or text me I've still got the same number John

Been creeping on fb at this. I'll need to take my car down sometime soon for a catch up seeing how it's legal now. John

I think that's just to prove that it's them dude but Stu will confirm that. John

Cold weather? If it has caps on the top of the battery take them off and have a look inside, it could be low. John

Far too damn icy for the GT to be out on the tarmac just now! John
