  1. Looks Much better with the right tyres! Probably drives a lot better too!
  2. I know the feeling. After spending quite a few years restoring my Beetle I am enjoying driving it but there nothing else to do to it other than clean it! Luckily the camper needs bodywork to give me something to do but I am tempted to flog the Beetle and get another project
  3. Cordoba 16 valves must be seriously rare now! Haven't seen one for a long time.
  4. Was reading through and thought that's a lovely van, then read on. So glad it didn't go up in flames!
  5. I used thinners to clean off window tint glue before, could be worth a try.
  6. I check in on your thread on RR occasionally but it's good to see a brief overview thread here! Looks like it will be great fun to drive. I love it!
  7. One dealer near to me has this picture included in their adverts. To be fair the cars always look immaculately presented but they are all over my budget!
  8. Good work! Will make it much more bearable driving in the the rain
  9. There is a 20 mph zone in Plymouth that has average speed cameras on it. It's awful to drive that road! There are 2 mini roundabouts and hills to tackle as well so I try to avoid going that way
  10. I too missed this thread before! Great to see you got the Delorean back and look forward to hearing more about it
  11. My Octavia broke down last year when I was stopped in traffic in the outside lane of a dual carriageway. I had about 4 people jump out their cars to help Push me to the side of the road, which was a relief! I have helped others in similar situations before so nice to know it's not just me!
  12. I haven't played this for ages, but just checked in and my garage now has a VoltPogen Jasper and a Fawn Epoch RL Cossie!
  13. Nice! Looks like it's Henna red? My brother had a mk1 astra that colour with the matching interior
  14. It was a Samara Flyte according to the decals. I only took 1 picture in my excitement of seeing it, I will have to keep an eye out for it again! Don't know if the interior was standard but it had red flecks much like a late 80's xr3i
  15. I saw this one while driving a couple weeks ago, but today I saw the Lada Samara parked up!
  16. He does still have them. Not sure if your on Facebook but he has renewed the advert. He is in Cornwall so not exactly local to you but he said he can wrap them for a courier. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/502064544608347/?ref=facebook_story_share
  17. Someone I know was selling some Amazon outer sills, I can't find his advert on Facebook but I can ask him if he still has them?
  18. I went to a local car show yesterday in the Beetle, the weather put off a lot of people so it was quieter than last year but a good variety. My favourite car there was a base model 205 with 12.5k on the clock that looked like it was still owned by a giffer. Sadly I didn't get a pic of that one.
  19. Wow! And I thought the ML was a brave purchase! Love it!
  20. I spotted a Lada Samara twice yesterday! Tried to get a pic off my dashcam but it's rubbish. Was a K reg with a body kit
  21. I saw it again on the way home from work! I now realise my dashcam is rubbish! It was a k reg with a body kit!
  22. On the way to work this morning I saw a metallic grey Lada Samara coming the other way! Not seen one for years. Tried to get a pic off my dashcam but it was so blurry. I am still in shock!
  23. Good to see some progress. If you can get it running again and give it a wash that will also give your motivation a boost
