    Yes.
    But its illegal to have it parked in the middle.
    Having it parked on the passenger side is legal.

    I might go and get myself one of those grommets from vauxhall, and get it sprayed up white, should look better than a black one.

    Next mod is gonna be new reg plates. Legal 3D text on shortened plinths.



    It's great having a mate who works for a number plate company! A pint of lager for a set of plates seems a really good deal!

    I haven't decided yet..... I could sell the parts off my purple one for more than I have spent on this car,thus breaking even (in my twisted mind! LOL!)

    Having a company car, my missus' beetle, K95, and my CBR600 makes another car a bit pointless really!

    Also, insurance has come as a bit of a surprise on this valver!!! It used to be cheaper before I was 30, and all insurers have said "yeah, we've had a lot of claims on these recently" even though i want a 3,000 mile a year policy with ?500 excess locked in a garage with cat1/cat2, snap off and 9 years NCD!

    God knows what they'd want for the other one if i ever finish it!

    Since I started work at VW, my purple one hasn't really progressed how I would like because I work 6 days and when I'm off, i can't be ars3d going to the garage working on the car!

    Matthew, I was getting quoted ?600-800 to insure the car. I live in OL1 which is allegedly in the top 10 of the UK's high risk post codes!

    After phoning 43 (seriously!) insurers, I got it to ?422 fully comp, protected, covered for ?5000 agreed value based on the mods with Performance Direct because I've had insurance with them on and off since 1998.

    It's raining today so no mods i'm afraid. Gonna go into work instead!

    Briscoe16v, if you've got plenty of cash, make me an offer??????? Car is mint and has 12months MOT and 12months tax.

    Rick,

    I was thinking about this problem with water getting through the bonnet vent on mine.

    Why not put some clear perspex on the other side - spaced to keep the air flow around the filter but the water will then just fall down behind the headlamp???

    Looking good anyway - nice to see you're "keeping the faith" - Not keen on the gold wheels - anthracite is the way!!!
