Funny story. 3 days before I was due to sell the Passat I was finishing a long drive home from Bournemouth, to Exeter and then home to Bristol when I had my first ever road incident where someone had stopped, in the rain on a national speed limit road due to an incident infront of them and I...

so far most votes are towards the mazda - thou im still a lil torn between the 1.8 and the 2.0 gladrags: nice :) i'll try and attach one of my passat. The thing is I really like it, it's going to be hard to let go of (im a bit stupid with cars like that. The tigra was a write off and i was...

Hi all. My first ever car was a 95 tigra i picked up for £600. Then I later upgraded to my current car, a '99 VW Passat 1.8T which i picked up for 750. 3+ yrs down the line and the passat is absolutely on it's last legs now. It needs a new gearbox, new rad, new ac compressor.. endless list. It...

Ah i know its nothing personal :) it's just me skimming over forum rules too fast and missing the intent ;) Pics are up in the "fun with tigra" thread in the vauxhaul forums if you ever wanna see them :)

guess not many people care for the tigra ;) but quick update incase anyone is silently reading: today we got the pipping and clips I needed and fitted the air filter. I know reading the article on this car here that people recommend a panel air filter for a few reasons - but I bought my air...

ok, time for a few photos now i have the post count- lets start with the damage from the last crash: metal work dented, bumper cracked... after taking the bumper off it was worse than I thought. Metal work really bad and, perhaps worse, dreaded rust! finally, after taking the inside...

after my fiancee's birthday party a friend of ours took another friend home before coming back to help us clean up. When he got back he was grumbling he had been stopped by the police for having his head lights off which he insisted were on fine and then the police suggested he had only just...

they look so cold.. mind you the wether at jap fest was bad. Good day though for all who went!

actually looks really nice, good work :)

it's always worth a look on ebay when you know what you want. sometimes its full of just rubbish and dogey deals - but i still say its worth a glance first because sometimes you turn up some gems :)

it's almost definately going to be my next car unless something special turns up :) But despite it all I have a soft spot for my tigra <3 although I dont quite fit inside it properly haha xD

oh, did I misunderstand forum rules? I knew that posting pictures tomorrow would put the post back under moderation and it wouldnt show until it was approved but thought that was OK - but is it more a case you would rather I *didnt* post pictures at all until the 10 posts? either way is cool...

the general plan is to try and make it run for at least one more year (more if I can) so I can build up some no claims before moving onto something new (i seem to be falling in love with the mazda mx3 .... but i've only been a named driver thus far so dont have my own no claims to help with a...

Just making a post to say hi :) ..hi :) looking forward to learning alot from you guys as I spend more time here! :) I did make a post in the vauxhaul section but it hasnt been approved and its been 24hrs so i guess I should consider it deleted - was probably too long by half! haha, see you...

Hey guys :) i'm new here so first off: hi! nice to meet you all :) I own a 1995 tigra 1.4 - it has a bit of a sad story! When I bought the car I had never even sat in a drivers seat before, let alone drive any car. I came to driving late and I was 24 when I bought this. My boss was...
