probably saw you as I came down and spoke to one of the guys with a mk4.  His was the black one with the roll cage.

75000 with full history and very regular servicing oil changed at least twice a year  still investigating the cause of the failure s/h engine being fitted over the weekend then it'll be a trip to r-tech to do a full diagnostic health check on it mil, light came on a couple of laps before the grim reaper took over personally just think he was giving it too much trying to keep up  :wink:
