Picked it up today and I'm very pleased with it,it's very clean,so must have had a respray at some point,no service history with it,so it's booked in for a cambelt change Thursday,I'll be changing the oil,plugs etc, got the scratch and dent man coming Friday, to sort out the scratch on door.I'll be changing both front seats,as the leathers split,and I'll be raising the back end up slightly,I think I'll keep the wheels for now,and save up for some different wheels for summer,all in all the cars cost me £900 after I've had the work done,which isn't too bad( the mirrors will be getting changed)

My girlfriends got a v5 they just seem really heavy to drive,I'm not too fussed about the speed,at the moment you can still make a mk3 look really good,and they're cheap to run

I managed to have a proper look round the car today,I solved the misfire problem,which was the airflow meter not being plugged in properly,now runs sweet,there's a couple of bubbles of rust on the drivers door,and the drivers seat is totally shot,I'm going to have a go at the spraying myself as it hardly cost me anything in the first place,I'm pleased the engine issue was just a plug,I was getting ready to change all the sensors and plugs etc,but saw they had already been changed,so done a search on here,saved me £££s toasted other things

The maf could have been unplugged due to the fact it is / was playing up.
