Got a few bits done tonight !

Replaced DV had what looked like a brand new REVG fitted but replaced anyway.
Replaced PCV for a rev R the old unit was stamped 2007 so guessing was original !
Fitted the RAMAIR

Steam cleaned the bay and under bonnet , also tidied up some tired looking bits with some satin black paint !

On the hunt for a TTS engine cover then I'll get some Porsche caps to tidy up the old ones and then engine bay is done as I'm not one for dressing up the engine .

Pics :)











Loads more to come !

Looks like a great car to start with! Braver than me having one in white, but they do look great when clean!
Think I remember the build thread on your orange mk5 not long after I joined here. Surprised not to have see that car again on here or in the mags... Do you know what happened to it?

Look forward to the progress with your ED30!

Dude I'm so shocked I haven't seen it either ! Only went down oxford way and a young lad had it too !

Perhaps he's just not into cars in like the rest of us lol !

Steam cleaned all the engine bay

Gave her a full service with all recommended parts including cam follower , rev g , rev r pcv and fitted the ramair , changed the plugs , oil filter and fuel filter , some millers nano and everything else I could find service wise !

So now the car is healthy on the inside I'm just waiting for some dry weather to get detailing ! As I say done the bay and all the door shuts etc so just exterior and
Interior that need some tlc






The PCV was nearly as full of crap as my mrs , stamped 2007 so guessing it's never been changed ! All running sweet now though

Lovely looking car mate - what mines wishes to be! Lol

Can I ask where you got the front badge from? I fitted the rear red MK7 badge last weekend to my candy white Gti. Been looking for a front but not sure if the MK7 one would fit?

I really like the black accents, I do believe you can have too much colour coding on a car and white makes it all the more obvious, nice job!  :happy2:
