A massive thank you to Gary at GOK and all the other pricks who helped out with the skoda. Wouldn't have gone back together so well?(or at all...) without the help. For anyone who needs something doing on any sort of car/van/bike, Gary is your man, located in Liverpool he's a top mech and plenty of users already know/use him. The website isn't up and running yet but give him a buzz, he's the one in the know and a lot cheaper than anywhere else!

Car now back together feels really tight, engine picks up a lot cleaner and it loves breaking traction in 3rd now which it never did before hand. Handling wise it's night and day, despite being on crap coilovers turns in really positive.

Work that was done

Rear ARB

Polybushed rear beam

New brake lines

Car fully undersealed

Engine out, box rebuilt

New Single mass flywheel and clutch conversion

Hi flow exhaust mani

Silicone hoses

Painted the motor and box and other bits and bobs

Am I really that out of touch with youth slang? I read this as derogatory not a compliment?

Nice looking MkI by the way, liking the Taxi graphics

That's exactly what I thought. :wonder:

Call me old fashioned but, My usual response when someone calls me a

***** to my face is to swiftly smack them in theirs...

Yeah thought it odd - calling the fellow workers pricks and then about the website being unavailable!

But re-reading seems Gary may have done a good job.

Sounds more like gary wrote this to promote himself :wonder:
