Hi finally subscribed. I have a swb tt auto zed. I bought it of my friend’s dad after he wrote it off!! Was rear-ended but there was no major structural damage. Loved the car from the first time I bought it and I could not see it get scrapped. Bought it for £400 off the insurance co. I don’t really have that much money to put into it so I have just done what I can. All in all after the jigging and spraying and parts its cost about £1200. I will post some pics of it as soon as I get some web space. Its not up to the standard of most of your zeds but had to have her back on the road. Still got a couple of probs but with your help hope to resolve them.

 

What’s the best site to host pics?

I think the pics make it look good, but in real life the bodywork aint that great. You can see its had a bump. I cant believe how much ive learnt with owning it. Done all the aux belts, sparkplugs, fuel filter and ran ecu diagnostics.

 

There have been a few times when i thought oh ghod what have i let myself in for! But it was worth it in the end.

 

Problems im having now are:

1. driverside o2 sensor is gone been a bitch to get it out and im still waiting to get hold of a 22mm crow's foot socket.

 

2. Couple of holes in exhaust had it welded once but the centre silencer is completely shot now.

 

3. Rust appearing on the nearside rear arch.

 

4. the boot interior is annihilated and getting hold of a new one for swb is going to be difficult. Think i might just get someone to do some custom job.

 

But the main problem is that f***ing o2 sensor.

 

And thanks for all the kind words and the welcome :hyper:
