finished uni!
driving to newquay tomorrow a nice 290 mile trip each way!
first big drive in my polo... thank the lord im not in the corrado or I'd surely be deaf and have no nervs in my bottom.
when i come back i know im going to have to do a bit of work on the motor :
air filter
oil/filter
possibly plugs (havent checked those yet)
cars an R reg with 37k on it, so the cambelt hasnt been done. no record of it at least. would you guys reccomend me getting it done? and also is it a straight forward job to do on the drive on a sunny day? dads faairly good with cars as is me mate with a golf, and im a top tea maker
would like to know if anyone has done their cambelts themselves..

and also, apart from buying a small fishtank for my room its car pimping time!!!

860+ miles in 6 days
things to report :
odd rattle in dash. thumped dash and it stopped.
pulls very well considering i was 2 up with a boot/backseat full of crap
people who go to RTTS are clearly fools (chavvy)

apart from that nothing bad has happened.
the car needs a ruddy good service now though, and i think a panel filter is in order it sounds weak sauce at the moment.
going to have to source some bits to fit over summer..
