NA Value
Yep. I agree around £500. Sorry but thats the market. :( no MOT and a list of known faults really means its a "parts" car and the list of faults could be fairly costly to put right.. eg matrix and brakes.

Santa Pod Today....
Yep that was a good reaction time. Was it a one off or did you do others in that area?? 15.37 is a good start on ETs A couple of us on here are into the 14.5 bracket, so you need a little more practice. :) March 16 is shakedown day for the Z club Drag Challenge. There will be a few of us there then.

how to remove the spoiler off the boot
DONT use brute force... you will only distort the tailgate :( There are 6 pop in plastic studs which will pop out if levered gently with a tyre lever or similar. Normally on OEM spoilers they are stuck round the edge with double sided tape and a few blobs of Sikaflex only.A long thin bladed knife will cut thru this.

n/a or tt ecu
20 is the NA manual 21 is the NA auto. I know nothing about TT s but I expect 22 and 23 are the corresponding TT numbers.

wheels and tyres again, advice needed please.
Treadwear factor 320. :nono:
-
wheels and tyres again, advice needed please.
Just check the Treadwear number of whatever you are buying. Low numbers indicate poor wear rates but high grip factor. Eg Kuhmo V70 track type tyres are 125. High treadwear numbers indicate a low wear/high mileage tyre. The downside of this is no grip. I have seen tyres withnumbers like 320.....AVOID
