Right, where do I start? After having to sell my Edition 30 due to some complicated tax issues I thought I'd go for another mk4. Anyway a friend of mine was selling one cheap so I thought what the hell, there cant be much wrong with it. Gave it a quick one over and parted with my cash. Once I got it back the the workshop and gave it a proper going over I realized its gonna need some work, here's a list of what I've had to fix/replace so far:
Cam belt
Aux belt
Fuel cap solenoid
Both front door modules (dodgy solder)
Throttle body
Filters/spark plugs/oil/coolant
Rear ash tray
Front top mounts
Blowing exhaust
Rocker cover gasket
Central locking
Battery
Seized rear brake caliper
Snapped turbo downpipe stud
all brake pads and discs
Reverse light switch
After getting the car running better it was time to start tearing off all the chavtastic bits the previous owner seemed keen on. The car looked like it had been covered in glue then driven through halfords! So I replaced the front grill with a standard item, removed all the blue led's inside and out, swapped the god awful blue hella magic color tail lights for some smoke ones. Slapped on a set of audi rs4 alloys and some decent tires. Which got me to this stage.
I know it needs a wash!
