D19MMA In Edinburgh

Recommended Posts

GLPoomobile

Not something I would normally post, as I hate "spotted" topics (they're proper gay), but I'm a massive hypocrite, so on this occassion it's quite acceptable :P

 

Passed a black Dimma heading south towards the Gyle in Edinburgh this morning, with the reg D9MMA (or similar). Makes nice change to see any GTIs on the road these days let alone a Dimma. And it looked great too.

 

My compliments to the owner (lucky bast) :)

did you get screen awrite then ? theres no much in there now,we used to be spoiled with burnside there and lightning at kinglassie,think its going to be a struggle to find decent parts at decent prices now though

dont suppose you have seen any 309's on your travels ?

was needing a rear beam but not needing much now as i just bought another 205 the nite with some goodies on it for spares,got a windscreen in it too which you can have if you can wait a couple of weeks till i get the interior out :) ,i would just cut the one out of the donor car and use the rubber from yours,cos you wont be worried if you crack the old screen removing the rubber intact Edited by vtifan

Yeah he stays just 2 streets away from me. When you coming down to collect it? Nah mate you've pretty much described it as it is. Although the heater matrix is bypassed with a deep 10mm snap on socket :D

Yeah mate it was leaking. Bummer, all of the relays in the fuse box are belonging to my Miami blue one. Nah mate I bought it with the engine in it with no tax or mot. But had to sell due to my other one needing bits for the turbo conversion.
