Colin-mkiv Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hello all. I have just become the proud owner of a Mkiv NA Auto in red. 1994, had a recent respray, standard body and trim. New ignition system, inc Denso Iridium plugs and new leads, cap and rotor arm. I sourced a set of Volk CV pro 3 piece splitrims in 17" with 8" fronts and 245/40 Falken's and 9" rears with 255/45 Pirelli's and a 5mm spacer (just to help fill the arches a bit). Also had the car Laserlined and it fires straight now as well. I'm basically just getting the car running well as a weekend warrior and looking ok. I also drive a Porsche 944, an Audi Allroad 2.5TDi and a Saab 9-5 TiD Sportwagon.....all of them are modified/chipped/tuned etc to some degree. I'm off for a look around anyway, hope to speak with some of you in the near future. Cheers, Colin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of useful information on here, and the search button is your friend. Will be nice to have a red one in the area Whereabouts in Durham are you?

Colin-mkiv Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 I'm under the distinct impression that people here like pics.......hmmm, I'm afraid it's against my religion to take pics as it removes parts of the soul from the car and in doing so detracts from the value/driving pleasure/shine on the paint.......hehehe...

Colin-mkiv Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 One image shows the rear wheel to be buckled....it WAS buckled, but the rim has a deep graze on the very outer edge and the outer part of the lip has crackin to the laquer and the metal below has oxidised slightly...giving the impression that the buckle is still there...I can assure you, I removed the buckle and havent got around to completing the repair filly as of yet...but I will. I just had to get the wheels fitted as I had sold the ones that were on when I bought the car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
