Opinions on these? Saw one yesterday and it looked and sounded so sexy
I take it when they accelerate hard from 1st-2nd-3rd-4th they aren't supposed to smoke though (Black/grey/blue and STUNK!) or is that normal like when turbo diesels clear out the turbo veins?
When driving casually it didn't put out any smoke, when he was flooring it it smoked a shit load and it stunk..bad

I was reading about it on the Seat forums a few weeks back. If you don't give your turbo diesel some stick every few days the turbo veins get clogged up.

Diesles put ouot loads of carbon, this clogs up between the impellors on the turbo over time. then you boot it, spins the turbo up quicker, extra centrifuge kicks the carbon off the impellors, and leaves a big black cloud of smoke behind you I presume.

was is a s13 or a s14? s14a?
as mentioned above the s13 rusts like a cnut... i had 2 of them... i have one still... both of them arnt in the best order body wise... the 1.8 engines tend to be un cared for.... so they break... lots 
but they a fun cars...!! quick too...
the plan was to restore the s13... but then i seen that i knew fooking nothing about body work let alone the equipment and space to work on it...
so i just went and bought a s14a.... excellent car!!!
