i no feck all bout engines,so i did the dash,loom,suspension,alarm makin the brews etc
my mate just did what he could
and the MECHANIC who bought it,knew fuck all,and was on the fone 2 his dad 1/2 the time.

in the end i just sad fuckit,and ripped everythin out,got the crow bar and ragged the fucker out :lol: :lol:

it would have taken a hell of less time,if he knew anythin about cars!!!!!
:evil:

[Aragorn]

which is precisely why i dont trust any "mechanics" to work on my car...

[mark1astramad]

exactly, do it yourself
if u fook up,u no where uve gone wrong,let some 1else do it,n u end up doin it urself anyways,due 2 frustration :evil: :evil:

i bought the car purely coz i wanted a car,it was at a vgood price and in better nick than most cav gsi's id looked at.

if it hadnt have needed so much for MOT,id still have it on the road,but it was fucked!!!!!

if ur thinkin about strippin and selling for profit, its a bit of a ball ache,havin 2 take small parts or stipid things off!!!!

i admit,i have made my money back twice over with more bits 2 sell,but i suppose thats just luck realy.
if it had have been up 2 my old man,it would have gone 2 the scrapper straight away, but i wanted the engine for my nova(which was meant 2 be a project,but is my g/fs starter car and daily runner)

but because she cant get insured on a modded car,i sold it all 2 try n get the nova up 2 minter!!!!!!!!
