I've done 17k in my alfa, a '99 2.0 TS... I got the cambelt changed when it got to 79k (bit late LOL) but other than that its had a front pipe and a bulb. THATS IT. mega reliable. maybe I got a one-off?!

haha, as soon as I saw you wanted a 2.0 I was going to suggest a 156 lol... I swear by mine and I love it. :thumbup:

Happy Birthday Harry, you're probably in bed now but I hope you've had a great day!! :thumbup:

Happy Birthday Paul :thumbup:

Should have kept this engine for the Z lol :rockon:

cheers for the comments guys... Yeah the Rover was the GSi-Turbo, very quick car and such a nice step up from the shitty RS turbo lol. The GTi-R was so reliable, I was doing 40 miles a day in it and the only thing that went wrong was the gearbox. The Corrado was my attempt at joining the dub scene, bought it standard, then got coilovers and brand new borbets lol.. but it was short lived - about 10 months, then I needed Jap again! The passat was a £200 ebay special, it run on 3 cylinders for the 4 months I owned it, ended up scrapping it and there was almost a tear in my eye as I was sad to see it go, I left it running at the scrap yard and it hadn't let me down once, and had been such a useful workhorse. The paintjob was funny though lol :lol: Few more pics: passat estates are quite big, but this picture puts it into perspective lol corrado whiner dodge & fez 1700 crossflow 1st Zed Dodge current Zed I like to get stuck in lol.

awesome stuff Dave... PM on its way :thumbup:

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

Had to sell it as we were looking for our first house... then I got told I was being made redundant! :cry:

Oiii that was a real RS Turbo - I should know I spent enough frickin' repairing the b*stard! :censored: Dodge had a 5.2 V8 in, it was an ex-drag racing truck thats been in the country since the 80's, if this answers your question Daz, I'll let the picture do the talking!

'ASSO' wheels... I've never seen another set!

haha, I owned that corrado but wanted to go back to Jap, ended up doing a straight swap for the R33! :thumbup: all been mine, theres quite a few gaps from cars I cant find pics for, but thats most!

Just been looking through my photobucket account and thought I'd share some old pics! in no particular order! comments welcome, dont think theres anything too chavvy lol... :gunsmilie:

:slap: :lol: Its reincarnation is on pistonheads at the mo.. that one had a bad accident after I sold it and it was re-shelled :taz:

:slap: :slap: I did drive my GTi-R on the road with jap plates on once... only from a meet down to the pub a mile away lol... so now I have two sets, heres the other!

thats actually more than it stands me at ;)

:slap:

Can you see why I wanted them lol :hyper: :nana2: :dance:

even down to brown tint windows lol

awful news mate, really sorry to hear it :(

I have always liked the noise, got Blitz BOVs on hard pipes at the mo but they aren't particularly loud - saying that I haven't got round to blanking off the recircs yet so that may be why. Some sound better than others, I ammune its the make of dump valve rather than the application?
