  1. Worked as shown on my dodgy video. You would never know a cack handed amateur had been anywhere near the car!
  2. I know what you mean. I have wireless carplay in my Cayman, work perfectly. Issue with my wifes iphone is that the lightning port seems to lose conecctivity every now and again, even though I have cleaned it out several times.Was just hoping there was a bluetooth adapter that worked. Thanks for answering everyone, appreciated.
  3. I’ve just bought a 2019 gti performance for my wife. Is there such a thing as a usb dongle that fits in the glovebox and connects via Bluetooth to the iPhone to enable CarPlay instead of trailing a usb lead to connect? Thanks!
  4. I have just sold my 7.5 R and swapped it for this. Same colour as the new mk 8, but thats about it, lol.
  5. I have just seen an invoice for a new Bentley Bentayga. Road Tax is £2,135. Now THATS what I would say is extortionate!
  6. When I say I had a guy come out to swap my screen, he was a local independant rather than an Autoglass (Kwik Fit) style of bloke.
  7. I had autoglass swap my screen. When it unfortunately needed another I had a guy that came to my house - a propoer tradesman. he removed the damaged screen and showed me the damage below. The screen pillar trim was scored and cut in several places and where he had broken a couple of clips on rear mirror shroud, he had bodged it up with screen adhesive. How do I know it was Autoglass? Because I had owned the car from new. Just watch out - there are some animals out there!
  8. £20 for a new screw? Thats mental. Look online, they wont be anything special, you will prolly get about 10 for 50p, lol.
  9. I have some brand new and unused Pagid discs and genuine VW front pads for sale. They are a piece of cake to fit, I would think around 1 hour to fit. It's so easy to swap, they let VW garages do it!
  10. Cheers Mike. By the way, looking at your username, is, er, it, really green? If so have you seen a Dr about it?
  11. Not being a costco member, how do you know when the deals are on. Can't wait to offload the nasty (albeit 6mm tread) on my Cayman for some PS4's
  12. In the case of Michelins, to be fair, they do last longer, but yes, penny pincing and how many people notice anyway. Nobody is NOT going to buy them 'cos they are 1mm down on tread. When they are new, the tread looks like its going to last forever anyway!
  13. They are damn cheap compared to a decent MTB tyre. Just paid £65 echa for a 27.5" x 2.5" tyre. There's bugger all rubber in one of those and as far as I know, wouldn't be much cop at 150MPH! And they have the audacity to rave about the tractioon with a mtb tyre. Haha, controlling about 1/10th of a bhp from my legs. Big deal!
  14. Had a Boxtser before the R, but much as I loved the R, I just hate 4 door cars which is all you can get with VW nowadays. Shame really, as a 3 door golf looks lovely. Bu weighing up for potential for big bills with the golf sneaking up to 35k miles (electronics, water pump) i thought I would swap whilst the p/x price was at a very attractive level. Once it nudged up to 40k plus, and with the 8 looming, I could have taken a big hit!
