Yeh it finishes tomorow evening jay,so hoping to swoop in at the last minute  :lipsrsealed:

Good luck fella it does look good! They sent me an email if I show them a picture on my golf before and after shots they will give me £10 off my next purchase  :smiley:

I was bidding on one too! mk2 rads just leak after about a year :rolleyes:

I can't believe the cost of one these days its not complicated why its that expensive, I think its the short supply of manufaturing. I'm not impressed with the ECP one which is what I've got its rusting behind the plastic mount and I think it was about £45-£50 from them?

16v ones are much shorter Then the 8v ones but I think the 16v ones are either double or triple cored for more efficient cooling.

8v Rads are longer which is why on the Rad cowl its massive.
The 16V is smaller, but thicker If I remember rightly?
I found the G60 8ver got hotter than any 16Ver I've driven!

Someone really wanted that they must have proxy bidded over £100 to win at that price I've seen people increase the bids if they are too low like the zaust for sale sometimes. I hate people who set up dummy accounts and just increase it for sake of money kills the ebay Ethos for me big time. Thats why I stick to a price and refuse to go higher the best way is to bid @ 11 seconds so you won't have time to increase the bid, even if you want to out of pride  :evil:

LOL haaaa Yeah I know where you're coming from fella and completely agree, but I think mines a fluke I worried about limited supplies I'm sure they look identical to the Chinese imported ones for sale around £99+£45 delivery? 
Anywhere around the £70-£80 is a bargin which is about half of retail price on it  :smiley:
