Hello all,

As my cam belt decided to snap in the middle of nowhere last night and I have a couple of reliable sources telling me I will be damn lucky if the Valves havent been bent I am going to move over to a Golf.

Does anyone here know any decent forums as I have googled for some but as is the way with Google nowadays its full of ads!

Except for me...

Edition38 is good for golf fans too, maybe try there. What Mk of Golf are you after?

Have bought a 1990 Mk2 Golf 1.3.

So far its OK, changed Oil, New front engine mount, new alternator belt. When I am home from Uni in the summer gonna get rid of the little specks of rust that show through the (not my fav, but for my budget I couldnt complain) white paint.

Just trying to get rid of the Polo, no bugger wants it and I resent payin Â£40 to let a scrappy make some money off it! So far my mates and I have planned to slap a new cam belt on it ourselves, time it roughly and cut the roof off for some dodgy convertible fun! Doubt it'll happen but u never know!

I agree with that.

Too much trash on there, and the site's too slow.

That golfgti.co.uk site seems to be good. What about No-Rice, Dub-Club or one of the million other UK clubs about?

i have not got anything against golf but they all near enough have the same sort of blocks.
a vw is a vw so good luck mate.
but with the next 1 make sure you don't rev it hard or that will blow

cant you source a new head (complete with valves...) and time that properly? (it doesnt need much - it's all marked off externally)
