Not much to report, both subs have gone, starter motor still squealing at me to be replaced, battery died on holiday with no jump leads, and airbag light has came on so going to get it plugged in to see what's what, ticked over 146k miles

Haven't had much money to splash on the old girl after booking a holiday to lanzarote with the mrs (first time abroad, woohoo), bought some jom coilovers from tdi_blu (top bloke), also bought some headlights whilst I was there as mine were worse for wear, also a few other treats and my dad had some bits for his mk3 so all around a good day!
Car has had a problem past few days of cutting out and not starting, put it down to either fuel pump, fuel pump relay or crank sensor, so I've order a walbro 225 fuel pump and the other parts to go with it so hopefully have a running car in a few days and have my two front tyres replaced with my 2 for £15 new tyre specials

Had new tyres fitted, definitely need to fit the coilovers as it looks like a land rover

She's off the road again, changed fuel pump relay and was working fine, went to get in the car, started fine but cut out 20 seconds later, took battery off for 15 seconds then but back on again, now ticking from relay fuse board so possibly blown the relay, will be riding to work for the week now on my bike I found in the shed with the worst seat ever, an hour ride had killed me

Had it plugged in, little or no fuel to injectors, and fuel pump doesn't sound like its priming anymore, so going to replace the fuel pump when I can source one

Found one at a breakers for £45 as not had my car for near on 2 weeks and its getting annoying now, if I wasn't skint I'd have got a lcr pump but just can't afford it

Finally after working on it all day after work, she finally runs, bodged wires in places I didn't know existed from a previous owner, and I'm thinking of selling up and possibly going back to a mk2 or a vr6 if I find a decent example
