As the title says.

I'm unsuccessfully looking for the volviz topic -->

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/s ... .google.pl

Any clues?

Thanks in advance :wink:

It may have been in between lots of spam threads when things were really bad on here, possible it got deleted then by accident.

Martin once said in my lost topic - your car is similar to vader but without evil...

Turbo has been sitting on drive way for few month....
to cut the story short - Insurance was bought and last week Kristin was driving the 480 then on 5day she called to say that it's consuming too much gasoline, to what I answered - it is still better than drive a bus...

Guess what happened? I recieve call after few hours - 480 died while driving.... Then thought to myself the car is revenging about consumption complaint - if you think that I'tm too thisrsty than tow me

After closer inspection it is clear that timing belt has skipped or snapped resulting in some well blended salad inside :nuts:

new build thread is on it's way....
