Finally getting the gti to run like a gti should.
All along it had a fpr half a bar down on standard lol
you still thinking of swapping it in for a nova andy
Yeah that is the plan but going to balls it around til i know the teething problems are gone/if any arise,while enjoying it at the same time,iv just gave it a good going over round here and theyre such a different drive to Nova's.
there on my must own at some point list, they dont go for a fortune either which is nice lol
After about 3 years, most of that time spent on axle stands looking very sorry for itself and not being fixed, my Nova finally has an MOT! With no advisaries either, not that I really should have been worried as everything on it is as new now. Needs a bloody good wash though! I haven't driven a Nova in all that time, I'd near enough forgotten what they were like, massive difference between it and my Celcia for instance, refined as that may be it doesn't put a big smile on my face!
Sleeping Tablets! :) (and free prescriptions)

Feels so planted in bends,its crap to drive slow,but what a laugh when you get going.
I reckon a quick rack and an mi16/gti6 and that would be a serious track weapon.
£8k a year pay rise :smugface:
That's more than I'll be living on this year lolQuote:

Its a career that I would recommend to anyone mind! £20k a year utter minimum, £30k is about average, £40k if you wanna put the overtime hours in and well over £55k if you go self employed working all around the UK! A hell of a lot more if you work world wide.
sounds gay :(
sounds like a job that is completely out of reach for an unqualified joe like me :(
Far from it!Quote:

Had a really fit, gorgeous, brunette in lovely tight jeans and a little top check me out & stare while crossing the road then gave me a smile.
That made me feel good ;) Ahhhh.. still got it!
(I'm easily pleased lol)
