D19MMA In Edinburgh

[GLPoomobile 958]

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

 

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)

That will be Dan Cairns' car, aka T16 Dan on the PSC site. He sold his err 205 GTI with a T16 engine for that beasty.

 

As seen at Pugfest this year

Fitted with a beam built by me!

Thats the nicest Dimma I've seen, usually they all look like they've had the kits cellotaped on.

Apologies for 'phone' pics but all i had with me

[vtifan 26]

[ablister 31]

Was at the 205s and another boy came over and was getting bits too. We started chatting as you do and his car was sounding familiar...

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 ?

[ablister 31]

no, will go back for that later. My mate who works in bodyshop is going to give me a hand removing it as i'd probably rush and break it which i can't afford to do

 

No, not seen any 309's what you needing anyway?

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 August 12, 2012 by vtifan

did you sell it to ross then ? any problems i should be looking out for ?

[Ryan_g1 9]

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

picked it up this morning,was the matrix leaking mate ? did you put the gti6 motor in it,what box is in it ?

[Ryan_g1 9]

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.
