The infamous Golf MK3 CL....

Welcome Mate

Shouldn`t you fix the oilleaks before spending money on fancy dress up parts?

Thats exactly what I was thinking. Thats the same thing on my car I'm doing before I spend anything on it.

Why don't you get vr6 tail lights they are blackened and they look cool. Well alot better than the standard ones. lol

As for sourcing the lights I'd recommend.

Although shipping costs can be a killer so best to get a few things at once.

Its boring, but you should get everything working stock before modifying things.

[SOHC]

yea... and sort things out like what you need to get soon, I mean real important stuff, next things on my list are clutch and main seal done up as well, which are pretty costy!! save some up for "IN CASE"

yeh i know i know... i have a few problems with cars recently. i've had my license for not even a year and already totaled 2 cars they were both pos tho so pretty much any damage to them would have totalled them anyway.

now, with this car, i am going to get it up to speed mechanically (hopefully with some of your guys' help) and then work my mods into some kind of reward system. for example, i don't crash for 3 months, buy some tail lights. dont crash for six, get some headlights, dont crash for 12, get some rims...

on my last two cars i had nothing to work for, but this little mother is going to be one hot beast when i am finished with it....

Holy sh*t! Less than a year with your licence and 2 goners already.

May be a good thing adhering to your buying schedule then

I think I may have beat you totaled 2 cars in 3 months....
*Pulsar (Stolen and destroyed)
*Old vr6 (Car accident making it a ride off)

Nothing but bad luck this year with cars.... Maybe I should just ride a push bike from now. HEHEHE lol

On a CL the brake vac hose at the manifold cracks at the elbow and sucks air.No 4 leans out and it runs on 3 pots.Just replace the rubber elbow and all is well again.

hey dude, I think dats a sound reward system but you shouldnt be expecting to have a accident again, they happen sure, ive been in a few myself within a year, but thinkin like dat is only setting urself up for another accident.
