Update, Got home tonight and decided to put some goodies on

Crystal headlights, sidelights and a strut brace

What dya think??

And a bit of elbow grease The worst bit was changing the lock barrel, it took longer than fitting the door lol

Look out on here for new piccies tomorrow when I fit my newly acquired crystal head and side lights

Well I spent some time on it yesterday and now it looks like this

Much better huh

I know its a backwards way of doing it but id get any door n wing in good condition, get them painted it will be cheaper for the lad in the long run due to the jump in premiums for the lad when he has to reinsure nxt, if I crash again i want to crash into you, you seem realy relaxed about the whole ordeal good on ya mate, I would of blown up n probably ended up getting nicked from the red mist lol

Yeah I think I have done really well to keep my cool, but thats why they call them accidents.

He has bought a door and wing and had them sprayed, just waiting for them to be ready and he is gonna get them fitted, been fairly pain free so far.

Just a proper pain in the ar5e

FFS Q, bloo*y typical aint it, it makes you wonder what went through his mind all of a sudden to cause such damage, the guy sounds like a right

I think he has a serious psychological problem and should be publicly humiliated then shot

Cheers all, its nice to hear some support, particularly as things r proper **** at the minute, maybe buying green werent such a good idea.

Probably should have just bought a proper WRX in silver and be done with it

If the lad hadnt of been such a decent geezer i might have pulled the job card and called for an ambulance but he seemed like he needed a break so here i go looking for parts to help him

thats unluck m8. good of you not to cain the lads insurance though. hope it goes well trying to find the bits

Yeah to be fair Granby I am having a proper sh*t time at the minute

And yeah M@tt he was proper sorry and we exchanged details, I said I would try to source the parts secondhand and he can supply a fitter and pay for the parts so I just gotta find a decent green door and wing.

Im too bloody nice

Went out on the country roads to Grafty Green today, stopped at a crossroads and the car 2 in front of me decided after pulling out onto the main road to then reverse into me, even though I let rip on the horn and tried to reverse out of his way

Not a happy bunny

Now need a door and a wing, gonna get it down out of insurance cos the guy is young

you could try here e/bay Item number: 300315056400

Funnily enough they do a pair for £80 del but trying to keep costs down at the minute, Ive seen standard ones on fleabay but they want £40 del

Hi all

I need a drivers side facelift headlight, anyone got one kicking about they wanna get rid of???

It was a walkover really, noone stood a chance lets face it

I may have been away for a while but i like to feel I did my bit for the team last night (no not took one for the team )

Well done Deani good questions.

Good to see everyone

nice one with the car m8 i can see the light at the end of the tunnel finishing my nightmare.

Thats always nice aint it, I had mine sitting there for a week waiting for the bits and that was torture but I am so impatient.

Yeah all back together and working fine now even with all the problems we had

And your welcome anytime matey, will fit the seats for you when you get them too

Cheers mate just gotta find some now, the ones I almost got had some bolster wear and a burn so though nah.

Another result too today, on the way home I popped into Berengrave Service Station to ask how much for MOT and when could they do it £40 and now

So I now also have a year and a bits mot too, lottery next

How cheap is the golf? looking for the wifes 1st car

Sorry forgot to add well done on getting the car sorted dont forget to flash if I see ya about ****tingbourne lol

Its an 8v Gti M plate in mystic blue, 3dr leccy everything, abs etc 151k miles but runs sweet, short MOT/Tax due to impulsively buying the scoob after splitting with my missus. Its on Autotrader at £595 but I know things are tough so will let it go for £500

I know im a bit slow but a MASSIVE Thankyou to Pele and Loonytoon for there flat out work on Saturday just gone.

We fitted 2 new driveshafts and 2 new hubs in less than a day (would have been quicker if Tony wasnt a drag a*** lol)

No seriously mate your side was a bitch, Cheers to Pele for all you help too oh and I cant forget Jake he just completed my day.

KFC bribery worked well too

Now all I need is a WRX/STi interior and my popping, banging sport will look half decent.

See you all Friday at Notcutts now im mobile

Oh anyone want a nice MK3 Golf GTi, cheap????

Cheerz m8 i'll try them!

I just got a load of bits off ebay really good prices from a shop called JHP performance engines, try them

If not there is a guy that does a bit of breaking in gillingham, he seems a bit more expensive but if your local no postage. Ill PM you his name and number

Yeah a skoda will do you

Will see ya next week end with me tool box matey unless you get a day before

Nah I get enough useless skoda's at work

But the help is gonna be so grateful, I may even feed you and wii you again

Looking good Quentin.

The Sport has the honour offf being one of the best handling Impreza. All the 4wd traction but no Turbo means that it handles very well.

MY96 is the model with the early dash, without the digital milometer??? (If not I have a set UK Turbo clocks for the Forester Dash. (MY99/00))

Have you sorted out the problem with the car????

Yeah thats it, its got the early dash, almost sorted it, took both wheels off and noticed bearings were shot to pieces and driveshaft/cv not much better so found a breakers on Ebay and got 2 driveshafts and 2 hubs delivered for £107 which I didnt think was too bad???

Hope thats it, gearbox seems ok still I hope.

If not and it needs more ill just break it and get something else (im told life loves a quitter )

Q i no where a nice set of seats are, may need a bit of a clean, come out of a ltd edition facelift, full interior is up for grabs, text Matt if you interested.

Cheers hun, things move quick on here, I have one day away from the pc and things change.

Ill give him a texty maybe combine with the graphs

oh damn i was looking forward to helping fit them lol

Easy tiger

Seriously though, how much work is involved????

apparently with "tweeking" they do

MMMM what sort of tweeking?? im not playing with nipples just to get them to fit

i have a set of seats front and rear from 03 rex if you wanted them 100 quid

Ooh sounds good but unless Im wrong, new age dont fit classics??

Looking good mate! Welcome to life in the slow lane!

Its not how quick we get there just as long as we turn up in style

Please dont comment on the seats, they have to go..

If you got a set of WRX (gotta be cheap though) let me know

Hi

The MOT is coming up in the Forester and my Hazard light switch has decided not to stay on. (the circuit works, but you have to hold the button down).

Has anyone seen any facelift classics (MY98 -MY00) in a breakers locally??

Or has anyone got a spare switch?

Hi matey, How are ya???

Try these Visit My Website

I have just ordered a load of stuff from them and they seem alright, I know its not local but may help

oh mate thats crap, Matt said you need any help give him a call, still green will take gold very well, cant have pink:-)

It has gold wheels but I was thinking yellow. Just gotta get the driveshafts looked at see how much it will be if too much or gearbox gone then I will break it for parts

All help greatly received, Im hoping to tow it to a local garage tomorrow so they can have a look and give me an idea.

It could just be a broken up bearing that has killed a driveshaft or something more sinister
