Ok guys.. here goes.. an update for you!
So i treated the car to a full tank of fuel, checked the water and everything under the bonnet, been done atleast once a week, so i can keep on top of it... quite proud of myself! - and i didn't flood the radiator again!!
So car was/is running really well. Although the cars been sat on the drive since thursday, still having ususal problems with carb, but a lot better now i warm i up before setting off! But its one problem after another! Clutch has started slipping, but because my little brother owes me a lot of money he's said he's fitting a new one this weekend with the help of his mechanic mates for me. his treat. I'm still waiting for my bumpers to be sprayed to match the car, but thinking of getting it done by someone else as i bought bumpers months ago!
had a row with a bloke outside work as i watched him tryint o get his big bmw out of a crap space which he dorve into and then straightened up behind a bus shelter , then when i t came to reverse out he cudn't do it, and hence him hitting my wheel which was turned tot eh side so i could easily drive out of the space opposit work. (there are no spaces lined ont eh ground - but i think you all know what twits in bmw's are like!)
so after ten mins of rowing over the fact that he said my VW was crap compared to his bmw company car, he's fookin lucky he didn't knock my tracking out or something.. cos i dunno wot it could do...
Both rear springs are knacked too... im scrubbing on 14's! argh! its not good.. think a wheel bearing is going too, but i only hear the sqqeak whenmy blowers are on 1!
Speaking of blowers.. must go hit mk2 section on hoe to figure out what my blowers r doin.. they're no longer hot, bu i dunno what it could be...
need some new car mats as i can't find anything i like, and the *cough* Ripspeed ones my bro bought me a last christmas are abs knackered because i drive in heels.
Looking into new wheels atm, although i've got a good deal on sandblasting and powder coating my steelies, £20 - £25 a wheel!
so teh zandvoorts will be for sale shortly, full set of 5 with vw centrr cap things, £60!
Created a new signature (see below!) and spent a night with my mate while she did my nails and hair... new hair
Been gettin taxed on emergency tax code since october at work, so waiting on my re-imbursement at the end of this month, then it looks like when the insurance money arrives i'll have a cab on my drive, and the mk2 will be sold with a enw clutch, full set of tyres, new acc cable, immac interior apart from glitter on inside carpet - stuck! and a polish mark on rear seat - my bad!
