Project WKD Blue - just another mk2 on RS'

Yeah the one that buzzes, if that stops working you'll get a hot spot on the head and could blow the headgasket, just a thought.

is the coolant not dripping out for somewhere? or is it disapearing?

Sorry to hear of all this dude, the rs's to sit so well.

Right well got my gottis back thismornin after them being here there and everythere. and to say im disappointed is an understatement! i wont go into detail until mike has had the chance to put things right but all ill say is i wont be using them again and i strongly recommend no1 else does either! joe and jay will be doin all my whels from now on i think, a much higher level of both care and product in my opinion.

Aww mate, thats not good.
From all the positive rep they get, it sounds like they've shot themselves in the foot.

Take a couple of piccies and whack em up.
I'm currently bidding on a set of wheels, and was gonna see how much Mike would charge for his services. But If the quality really is that bad, then stuff it.

All these hiccups will only generate more hype for the final product!

yeah it kinda seems like fi your not a big scene player with deep pockets and tripe chromes RS' then they dont seem to care.

Dont m8, seriously just dont! my rs where fresh from mike when i got them and were not good and just thought that was because they was a freebie but clearly thats not the case. plus i wouldnt trust them to package and send a stuffed toy let alone rare wheels.

Mate, tell me about delivery!
When I got the Merc's from Daz they were delivered in wheel boxes with no other protection for them and were dumped outside my house in my driveway. No-one rang the bell or anything. Someone could have just bunged 'em in their car and driven off!.
I suppose thats the delivery guys fault though.

But that really sucks mate.
Maybe if you take Jay for a ride in your TT and make him giggle like a little school-girl he'll finish up the crap that Mike left you with?

Who is this mike fellow that is refurbing them?

Bad news on the wheels Hopefully they will get them sorted out

its not really messed about, its more im not happy with the end result.

Slightly off topic, but I have the same problem with the guy who painted my car, I told him that I am only paying him half until it is like glass

Also I am in love with your MK2. I want to see it in the flesh

cheers m8, ive calmed down about it over heating and have found a leak from a pipe on the secondary waterpump by the looks of it, so will have to get that sorted and the fan working again. then im gonna fit my stainless exhaust mani and system and itll walk through the mot then.

wont be at next months meet but hopefully be on the road bout then.

Is it a bare scene upswept stainless?

na its a miltek oval. same as on pete mcginleys G60 PM

They look good. I wish I had money to have cool stuff like that, although I do have an upswept

i bought it 2nd hand off a guy on here for reasonable price, and the 6branch is only a cheap ebay 1.

Get a turbo

Na im not overly a fan of them tbh even though the TT and the a3 obviously had them lol its fine as it is for the time being i think.

Aww mate. really sorry to her this, Ant told me in the pub earlier.

Have you got a reply from Mike yet? Hopefully they sort it properly...

ill get those pics of the gottis to you in the morning man, Id be busting heads.

s**t dude this doesn't sound good. He was the guy I was going to get to re-chrome the barrels of my wheels during the winter but after reading this i'm having second thoughts .

You got any pictures of his "handy work"?

look good from this far hey

closer up pics?
