    So what about yourself then? :P whats your best?

    Let's just say that there is another passat driver that now knows he can't stay with a 159 through the bends. :D
    But, there was an A5 driver who can :(
    I was impressed with my older sister, she didn't grab the Jesus handle until I took a bend at 180 (km):P

    Poly bushes + goodyears Ftw!


    Edit: this was just today.

    In the nicest way possible, if you don't win Fanboi of the year/decade then there's something wrong with life. :)

    I commend your fascination with the VW Golf.

    Sure I was only saying how I fixed the headlight I don't even like golfs sure :D

    Being serious though I wouldn't consider myself a fanboi of them at all there is plenty of other non vw cars that I like. You should hear my dad he is very bad since he got his a lot worse than I am.

    You may try that speed at my proving corner here someday... Road is very deceptive by tightening and canting to one side, one for the brave ;)

    Anyone have a rough idea of the cost to tint the back 3 windows in a car? Just vague now, I know it depends on size/darkness etc.

    As it turns out, my Golf has Harlekin front seats. :eek:

    Anyone around the swords area or know any mechanics over that way I could pay to give a car a quick check before I buy it?

    I was thinking it had the same colours as the gearknob pic you posted and also that picture of the back light and surrounding area. I also have no idea what Harlekin is.

    Putting that rear wheel drive to good use.

    The reason plastidip was invented. Less embarassing than the Bon Jovi edition I guess!

    I got the Accord done by Api tint and graphics in cork cost 140 iirc. Get the focus done some stage too I think. There is also Solarguard in Wilton but they were more expensive and dont work weekends which didnt suit me.
