Morgens ED30 No. 1871 - New suspension & audio!
Morgen:
Been a while..
My brother bought me a gti dead pedal for christmas so I've got that to go on, and Adam bought me a mk6 climatronic unit. I'll need to buy the mk6 fascia so it fits and also find out how to fit it! But yays for pretty interior things :)
Just purchased purple fog light tint and a windscreen sticker, to satisfy the wantings to be a scene queen. I love purple.
"Financial Mistake" is pretty fitting though, I had to press buy it now.
Morgen:
"Financial Mistake" windscreen sticker has arrived, along with my purple fog light tint. Those can wait though because the car truly is a financial mistake and I am a moron.
Managed to reverse into a Corsa at speed, though I'll make myself feel a bit better and admit that it was in my blind spot. But still, I hit it. I need a bumper, rear diffuser, parking sensor and replace my two rear drivers side tail lights.. The outer one is smashed so that's a priority :( The inner is just slightly cracked. Haven't washed the car in about two months so it's absolutely disgusting to look at. Completely fallen out of love.
Purchased an outer tail light, need to fit it when I can be bothered.. Also, the same day I damaged it my pad wear light popped up on the dash so I need to order discs and pads now too.. Oh and fix the Corsa. I'm utterly skint.
Then, I get a lovely screw in my front tyre and have had to pop the spare on for now. I honestly want to cry when I look at it. She was so beautiful.
Then to add insult to injury, my drivers window managed to open itself in tropical rain and I only realised when the alarm was set off about four hours later... Car was utterly soaked and my central locking no longer works. I have to open the car with the key and it sets the alarm off.
Also, the sunglass holder fell out on top of my head and it hurt. Then the rest of the plastics decided to follow suit. I'm so fed up of this car but I know I'll love it when I fix her all up so must remain somewhat positive. Cry cry cry. I'll upload some pictures when I'm on my phone but I needed to write this long post to vent a little bit about how much I hate it. Broken. Stupid. Golf
In other news, my Mum has just traded her diesel A4 in for a 57 black GTi. What a woman :drinking:
EDIT:
Adam took my key apart: central locking now works again! The mind boggles.. Oh and I ordered rear footwell lights and they've arrived now too.. Something else to fit when I can be arsed. No motivation for the car at present.
To fit:
Rear footwell lights
Windscreen sticker for all of the scene
Rear outer tail light
Purple fog light tint
GTi Dead Pedal
To buy:
Front CV Joints
Front discs & pads
Rear bumper (May now go for an R32 rear)
Rear parking sensor
Rear diffuser
Corsa rear light
Corsa Bumper
Valium

Youv had some really bad luck! Hope you get everything back together cause you know you'll be head over heals again when she's fixed up, clean and sparkling :happy2:
Shoduchi:
That's somewhat of an horror story... :surprised:
Hope everything can be sorted soon so you can love and drive your Eddie again.
I can sell you a couple of rear parking sensors that I removed from my Golfs when I installed OPS sensors, if you want. I've already sold a couple to Northern Ireland. :smiley:

Terrible luck, sorry to hear that :sad1:
I had a similar incident with my drivers window being open, and how my drive is sloped down and cambered 80% of the water that goes on the roof rolls down the drivers window. It was half open and was pisssing with rain, luckily only 5-10 minutes after it started raining my step dad came home (earlier than usual) and pointed it out so there was minimal damage.
Hope you get her sorted and fall back in love again soon :happy2:
