Haha! Probably thought you wanted to go dogging somewhere. Brucey1 - good luck on your quest to find the perfect vRS - I'd want to pay a little less for an 04 with 37000 on it though.

Mine seems to do it when it's getting lower than ½ full.

****in pull all the wires out the alarm and sling them in the nearest trash can.

Heated seats rule!

I got mine there - looks good!

Jesus - that's a thorough MOT!

Are you really over 60?!?!?! This is an awesome post! Joking apart, I'd say you have a good case and it's a great idea to confront this fat beaut with any evidence you can get your hands on. If he knows what he's done though, chances are he'll remove all telltale traces of paint from his vehicle, so ensure you get some paint from your one which will hopefully be able to be matched up. I'm surprised the police didn't take a statement from your neighbour who saw the incident - he is the key to this, I'd say. Is there cctv of the incident or are you just going to tell him that there is? It might be an idea to check if any of your neighbours have cameras outside their property just to be sure. To be brutally honest, RTC's, especially ones such as these are a real ballache for the police - they take up a lot of valuable time, generally go nowhere and you don't get anything (ie - an all important 'detection', which acts as a performance indicator) out of them. As for them asking when you last drove or if you had had a drink - that is absolute crap and I can't understand why they would ask you that, as it's irrelevant. As for the vRS badge - retrieve it, just in case it ain't on your new grille!

You've got a witness though haven't you mate? The neighbour who saw the RR reverse into your car and the guy get out and look at the damage before taking off? Statement from him and you're laughing. Is there any blue paint from the RR on your car? A forensic test should match it up exactly to his vehicle if it was his vehicle that hit you. As for your experience with the po po - sorry to hear about that - I'm a cop myself and I'd have taken a bit more interest if I'd been out to see you. If the cops fail to do anything at the very least you need to speak to your insurance company in relation to the vehicle that you believe has damaged your motor.

Haha!

Is it alright to use the Millers? I thought putting additives in the fuel was a no-no? Sure it says that in the handbook anyhow...

Hahaha... the vRS one certainly is pretty!

I get pretty much just over 400 miles brim to brim using Sainsburys ****e - might switch to this V Power stuff everyone is talking about!

Look pretty smart them mate!

I downsized from a Focus also mate (and before my focus I downsized from a Bora!) and the vRS is the best car out of everything I have had so far.

My Bora had the faulty brake light switch - cost £25 to get it sorted by VW Liverpool! But my brother did work there at the time! It is a common fault with VW's.

You ain't planning on replacing your seats just because they're dirty are you?!

Mate, it's ALL OVER every bit of the car! Is tar remover the only thing that will remove it properly? I was hoping a good wash would do the trick.

Hahaha! That's ****in class mate! That's a lovely car man - I got a 54 in black also. Going to get a VRS plate for it near xmas. I washed mine on thursday, parked under a tree on friday and now it's covered in some sort of sticky **** - no idea what it is or where it's come from, but I'm gonna park elsewhere from now on.

I've got a 54 plate and so far, have had no problems... so far.

I get this too - thought it was my imagination at first! It doesn't always happen when I brake heavily either. It's very odd and yeah - it seems to come from somewhere on the passenger side also. So you're not alone in this, but I've no idea what it is!

I got one too!

Guess not.

****ity ********.

What kind of a vibrate are we talking about here guys? Is it constant or intermittent? When I'm in neutral or sitting at lights in my vRS (not the SE), every now and then I notice a slight vibration - it's not majorly uncomfortable, but it is noticeable. It doesn't vibrate constantly.

I get a lovely chemical scent when I wash my windows.
