cheers for all the comments, still well chuffed with the wheels.......just not so chuffed with the car itself right now
I spent all day today getting it prepped for the mot.....fitted other rear caliper (which took so long because they gave one for the wrong side but in the correct box so i didnt notice til it was in bits and was stranded until they sent a van out with the correct one
), new drivers door handle (which i collected monday night after an hours drive each way in thick fog!) etc then driving home from my mates where the caliper was done the water warning light came on. Checked under the bonnet and the water pipe that goes from the right hand side of the block to the heater bypass valve (feed for the heater matrix i think) has split! Apparantly its an obsolete part which is no longer available from vw so another day off work tomorrow going to breakers etc to try and get one!!
, anyone know if they are the same as on a mk2 16v as its the same engine?
Then mot on friday....it had better bl**dy pass!!!!!!!!!
