    followed! when I get home from work ill have a read up! cant beat a little engine swap, by the way double check the car doesn't have a aftermarktet immobiliser, it causes hours off work off fiddling with the two looms to get them started -.-!

Very sad to hear that a family friend's daughter's fiancee died in a head on crash in a mini :( a passat was over taking a lorry on a blind corner. Just terrible. My thoughts go out to their daughter and his family :( really stops and makes you think.

    Found your post and its the same accident. Although I didn't know the other guy had died too, I was told he had severe injuries, but was alive. Just so sad :(

Bad news - one of the companies I ordered parts for use Hermes as a courier. Which means i'll never get it. Good news - Audi gave me an RSQ3 as a courtesy car.

    The driver finally took the hint after the letter I left on the door. I now have parts! It's very driver dependent with this company.
