Title: Don't you just love it when...
Post by: AdamB on 12 August 2004, 17:46
.....your car passes it MOT the first time, with no prior prep, other than changing the front plates!!
Really cements my faith in the old girl.

Just arrived back with a fresh and shiny ticket for another year.

What have you got to love about your dub, recently?

the way my homemade stealth sub box is taking shape so my little 10" won't take up any of my boot being flushed behind the wheel arch

my old girl lives a real life of pleasure,

you see i dont have to drive her every day cos i work in town(10 min walk)

but every time i get her to go for a spin she starts,no spluttering, no hesitating, no tantrums, no messin.

i love that ;)

The way it sounds when you boot it!  I have just been playing around with my new video camera.  I taped it to the dash and went for a blast.  It sounded really good when i played it back.

it's got to be rebuilding the head and putting all back together and it started first time and ran perfectly without changing the timing - only VW's do that....

Then kicking arse against fords....  :D

when i have a passenger in the car I've had suck great lines as "ooh thats fast" then I put my foot down and get "oooooooooooohhhhhh" or "does this have a turbo or something it really flies at 4000rpm" makes up for all the rust and expenses! Especially flying away from some crappy little chav car thats decided to tailgate me  ;) 8)
