Gandalf the Yellow

great video to show what you've accomplished so far, I can see a bright future mate - AWESOME vid. Steve

keeping it real, Ian! well done mate! Steve

some silky smooth riding going down. as per usual. I watched the whole thing, enjoyed every second... GUYS THIS IS A GOOD VIDEO MAN. Steve

on the subject of wipers... front blades look so much better when it's factory aero/arms, you're right, little things that make all the difference... so my rear wiper was rusty and blade was knackered so I opted for a new arm and blade, only £10, quality isn't great but it looks alright for the money. again love how it tidy the whole rear end up... before: after: while on the bay I thought I'd splash out on some cheapo centre caps... so glad to have the Golf back after some weeks.everything sorted on it and passed MOT so I'm pretty pleased (and thank seamons for helping me out with some ARB knowledge!), drives sooooo tight. yes I will look into some locking wheel nuts soon, the spacers I run use longer bolts so it's getting long locking wheel nuts.. Steve

another n00b question. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Golf-Mk4-1997-2006-Front-Left-Right-Anti-Roll-Bar-Bush-Drop-Link-Kit-/330855346032?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AGolf%7CPlat_Gen%3AMK+IV&hash=item4d0883ef70 this the correct droplinks kit I need to fit an ARB? Steve

Thought about commuting Ash? There's a lovely M40 placed conveniently between the 2 cities. Might work out the same as renting out a room etc. depending on what car you run. Sorry I'm not much help. Congrats on the placement. I saw about 6 new mini hatches the other day convoying in their funky graphics! From what I can make out, they look hideous! Steve

90 with drop links, found an LCR last night anyway so all good now just need to fit it now. Cheers...! Steve

There's an Eibach ARB with drop links on E38 at the moment.... not sure on size etc but will that upset the balance like you said like the 23mm ones? not sure what size they are. I assume that will clear any rubbing as well? Steve

quick question guys based on MK4 Golf. ARB (sorry again I cba to scroll through loads of pages) which ones can I go for lows so it doesn't rub? TT, LCR...and anything other options..? does R32 ones fit? Desperate need to hunt one down. Steve

all the dervs line up formation and create a smoke screen so everyone else behind can't overtake due to low visibility. and nah to track day ahah. not sure about Sept as I may be at Bestival, guess it depends on which weekend it falls under. Steve

THAT DOG HAS A HUGE PENIS. anyway, jokes aside... good video, that is quite a desirable set up to be having in the garden! Steve

if it's everyday/road use then surely just something like Pagids will do? they're more or less OEM but a hella cheaper? Steve

Luke that looks awesome, when a car looks that good who cares if the reals are reps or not! Steve

any electrics tech can help me at all? basically I replaced my headlamps a while back as one side was cracked, picked up a pair of cheap but in good nick and everything was fine until I tried using the Main beam. old lamp + existing old loom = all working new lamp + new loom = 1 side main beam not working new lamp + old loom that was on car = 1 side main beam not working checked the obvious and changed the bulb, I may have been unlucky and got another busted bulb whilst swapping everything over... haven't got round to changing that yet. checked all the fuses they seem ok, is there anything else I should be looking at that I've missed out on? Steve

and people who can't drive post in the rest of the forum... ay Sam? Steve
