Right.... Before the Great Forum disaster of 2003 I posted this topic... I am getting tired of my car and its suspension set up. The Tyres keep wearing unevenly. Also costing a fair bit on petrol for a long distance Girlfriend (120 miles of M6 Driving) So i think i have two options 1 Get the Suspension set up properly and engine tuned (Also involved buying a nice 40-60mm lowering quality shocks (i'm getting sick of the Shortened Spring harsh ride with Standard shocks) Cost ? and having it set up by Awesome/VW) 2 Get a nice Mk3 Golf TDI for about 2500 and keep that going for a fair few years (Also will be cheaper on insurace and Group 8) My Mk2 1.6 Driver is Group 9. Any opinions ? TT (Formally Pr0) Edited by: TommyT

How much ? And don't forget camber/tracking on VW's is f**ke dup and can only be done by Stealership and specialists :| Or so i'm told TT Edited by: TommyT
You can have your tracking done anywhere. My bro is a technician for Hendys (Ford Dealership) and he does everything I need doing either free or cheap (service 20, MOT 20), BONUS!
my camber & tracking was done on a 4 wheel laser rig by a BMW garage for 50, totally transformed the car.
try having a girlie who lives 150miles away and doin the distance in a vr6!!! (doesn't take long mind!) two q's from me... is the girlie worth it? if she is, why not try and get her to pay for the petrol! (i've never done this...honest!)
Get the suspension sorted it will make all the difference. I toyed with the idea of gettin a mk 3 tdi, but because it was a newer car the insurance was actually dearer!
