      Good news guys, lets hope you're cars stay that way!

      I've been working in London for the last 3 days of last week and a couple of days of this coming week and commuting by train, so I've only done two trips in the Racing since I got it and I'm itching to get back in it and start to open it up a bit!

            My Problem is I really need a courtesy car or hire car for work not sure if a garage does not have one what my options are ...................most other cars I have had allow cars during the 3 year warrenty period

                I had a courtesy car for over 3 weeks, although I had to "borrow" the wife's car for a week until they had one available.

                    • Finland Wins Worst Deal But I Think I Win The Best Deal...

                      Couple Years Ago I Had A Big Payout From An Insurance Claim And Me Being Young And Foolish Took My Mk5 Astra Up To Thorney Motorsport To Spend It All And To Make A Long Story Short They More Than Doubled The Pony Output xD - While It Was In With Them They Gave Me A VXR-R To Drive

                      For Those Of You Who Don't Know What A VXR-R Is...

                      • Hello,

                        My THP has 9100 miles and i have just received the "anti pollution fault" message. Well, Merry Christmas to me! Is there a way to fix this for good? I've been reading this thread and it seems that there isn't.

                        Hope to hear some good news from you guys!

                        • Hi Alex, have you noticed any loss of power? Experience on here seems to be that there's usually a delay between the fault occurring and the warning light illuminating.

                          • any oil around spark plugs ?

                            • Most of the power is lost. Before this happened, i have noticed that the car sometimes trembled when it was idling.

                              I will check for oil around the spark plugs tomorrow and let you know.
