Isn't that why we want him to come?



Only joking mate, she'll be good to hold the bags for you or whatever else you need

had another set back guys :(:(
im seriously on the brink of giving up with cars......

today in Sainsburys i parked up and went shopping with the missus, came back and there was a space ahead of me so nstead of reversing out of the parking space, stupid me decides to go forwards.......

turns out there was a bit of curb sticking out and i smashed my front splitter, cracked the side bit of, about the size of a trainer, luckily its a flush, brittle snap, but still well peed off

somethings telling me its too low!

might make the show, might not its in a serious state now.

-Ben-

Bloody hell, you really seem to be unlucky recently mate. You haven't broke any mirrors, walked over 3 drains etc have you?

you should still get yourself to the show mate, battle on - don't let it get you down.

nasty, its the 666 plate, im telling u! lol.

thats lookin v nice! its a feckin nice colour!
i cant wait till summer, loys bak on, polish lookin ace........(sigh-those are the days)

really isnt your month at all ben! im guilty of doing that before, but wasn't low and jus rolled up it n back down

get to the pod anyway, lucks going to change for you soon i can tell

Must be that numberplate

But seriously, thats real bad luck you're having, at this rate you'll be giving up washing the car and putting it into the rat-look categories at shows! Was the regier (sp?) splitter expensive? Maybe its time to get a GTi splitter on there

"snotagolf", who owns the ex-venom green 1.8t lupo, had a bump at Ultimate Dubs but still put it on show, seeing as he'd come all that way anyway. Its not about the winning, its about the taking part!

hi ben,

i recently got the polo decal for the centre brake light, like urself.

how do u go about gettin the bugger off ???

brake light off the car u mean?
boot lid up, 2 little circular rubber covers off.
there wil be 2 rectangles showing, these arent screws, get something like a screwdriver and just pop it towards you, its stiff though, but it will come, just be patient, move 1 side of it up a bit, then the other, etc etc

yeah not my month but hey things can't get any worse surely!

the reiger splitter was 80 quid i think, its going to have to be rubbed down and glued back on then re-painted (more money!)

nice one toby !!

also would like to quote Haynes manual here :-

" The brake light unit can be "tricky" to realease. "

Tricky F***ing tricky is not the word !

blimey ben, it really isn't ur month mate!! things can only get better i tell u!!
still come to the show tho mate, its only a car, it can be fixed and then it will all be over!!!

we don't think any less of ya for having a damaged ride, these things happen and its s**t when they do but the show must go on!!
