Well i knew i shouldnt have a week of work,money in bank and looking for a 2nd car so the green cabby can be of road for the winter months,so i picked this up for £100 was originally up for £200 due to water pump leaking,mot till june next year,body isnt perfect put will do my best to make it look better,so ordering a cambelt kit,water pump and cam locking kit and changing the pump by the weekend,i suspect it might have hgf tho but i recon it could be some sealer gunk dumped in the coolant to stop the leak,here it is

Not sure whether to laugh or cry tbh

Serious question though, is it meant to be banana shaped

[martin42]

Lol,dont care,

[Sir Tigger KC]

Fix it up and I'm sure TB will be interested as I heard he's rather fond of those!!

I loved my little 25. Until some bitch did this

[martin42]

Just ordered cambelt kit,water pump,cam cover gasket and cam locking tool,flush out coolant system 2moro and see whats leaking and if head gasket is holding 

[TheBoy]

Worth changing inlet manifold gasket while there, as these often leak.

Make sure the stuff you get is for the later K Series, else it no fit...

I haa a 623 Gsi but I really wanted a 620ti. The ones I looked at were all being sold by young lads, so I guess they had been hammered.
It's a funny thing, power, I used to like to know it was there if I want/need it, but I very seldom used it.
