Scott thanks for the offer mate but I've had a offer on the engine that covers the costs to a level im happy with. And best thing is I get to help and see it finished and finally finished which I'm really happy about because I've never taken a project on like that so its quite a big thing for me to see it come together. Even if it didn't happen straight away!
Ok a bit more about the new car
1999 gti6. It was made on the same day in the same factory as the 1.8!
It's on 73k with service history, all the keys and various original paperwork. Only thing it hadn't got it belt history so I'm ordering one pay day.
Engine bay needs a good clean as its messy as hell and it's got a slight leak from the corner of the sump which i will drop and seal when I do my oil change.
Speedo sensor is intermittent but I've got 2 spares so no big deal!
Oh and in true traditional pug style, I drove my old man up the road in it, parked up and I could hear water.....yep it was pissing its coolant. Radiator cap is fooked so I swapped the one off the 1.8 but the expansion bottle isn't brilliant so will order a nissens (my 1.8 one won't fit ) after fcs.
First mod
Oh and supprise supprise the alarm sounder doesn't work! Anyone got a working one for sale?
