Ah, i spotted you too, yours looked good too.
Where a bouts are you then? I'm sure I've seen your car floating around quite a bit.

What are people thinking. All reads or keep the 16v rears? Genuine cant decide so want some one else to haha. I still like the 16v's just with the black parts on black paint.

That aside -  I'm now booked into stealth racing for a quick health check. Need to figure out why I have an oil leak. Then a cheeky remap session too!

Luke the all rear reds FTW,  :cool: cause ur rides a four door people dont expect it to look as good as it does. they also dont expect to see a Supercharged VR6 under the bonnet :evil:

The all red rears gives it that little extra something, :smug: the 16v lights are knocking about on battered mk2's.

yeah will do - I'm hoping I make it onto the rollers. I'd obviously rather concentrate getting the leak sorted first. It sounds like it could be just an oil one way valve that's gone (hopefully). If not, I personally think its coming more to the stage of it needing a rebuild. But lets hope not.

And the all reds will go on hopefully pretty soon. I finally made the decision to do it, although I now have an issue with red indicators, so i'm trying to find green bulbs that are bright enough to make the indicators amber again.
