    Not a chance he'll sell just one tbh!!

    I know, worth a try though.
    If it comes to buying a whole new set I'd probably try something else.

    Anyone know if it's true there are only a handful of places in Ireland to service DSG semi auto boxes and it's €1200 euros caaaash to get it done (fliter and fluid)

    I wouldn't pay €350 for them that's for sure, I'd say they were barely more then that when new!

    This is also very true.

    What would you suggest on an N15?

    Almera GTI or Pulsar VZR lip kit and get her sitting low on some dished wheels:cool::D

    An SR16ve N1 or even an SR20det under the bonnet would work wonders too:D

    That kit looks unreal. I've had a quick look for GTI body parts the other night but it's been pretty slim pickings. It'll be a while anyway.
    And at least a year 'till a start buying engines! Haha

    Sign yourself up to www.almeraownersclub.com and you'll likely find any parts you'd want.

    You'd think that'd be the first place I'd start looking for parts. Not so clever of me.

    I think GTI's and GTI parts tend to be rarer than VZR parts in Ireland however that worked out. Probably tax related as usual :D

    The Astra got the cobwebs well and truly blown off it keeping up with Fiona on the way to the meet...until she chickened out in the rain.

    Eh its not called chickening out its called adjusting your speed to the shocking road conditions! Brat.

    @colm mcm, any chance you were heading south towards Cabinteely in Dublin this morning on the dual carriageway, saw a blue 00D XXXXX Jag S-Type pass me with the same alloys as yours? Looked very clean regardless..:)

    You seem to put a lot of money into your car Robbie. Question though, is it you or the car that's the problem? :confused:

    It's all body work

    The crash damage I caused is only €€75

    Scratches kids fault €400

    Services once since I bought it but that's all i spent on it apart from petrol and the 2 tyres I bought the other day


    But tyres are just wear and tear

    That alloy that I replaced was my daily cause I buckled it hitting a curb so €70 for that.

    Other than that my car has never gone wrong.

    I know I had that vsa issue but that just needed a software upgrade which was free.

    So it's me and not the car

    Which I suppose can be expected from my first year of driving.

    It's only now that I'm driving full time for my job that I'm learning quite a lot really

    That pioneer radio almost broke me today. Couldnt figure out why it wouldnt fully turn off when i held the off button. Turns out you have to switch the display button to off as well. Only took 2 hours searching on the net for nothing. Just starting pressing everything andnwaddayano it went off

    Just on the bus and two little ladies in front of me who have not seen in a long time have sat down beside each other. As they were getting off one asked about phoning the other. She asked are you in the phone book and the other lady replies yes under G. Priceless. The old way is still the best!
