thought it had to be over 10 years old before they could discontinue a part for that model in which case they would have to keep some stock etc  :undecided: just what i have heard

Lol when you could order Audi parts through Capitol I went in to order a numberplate light holder and asked for either side.  He was adamant that it was the same number for both sides until I showed him both parts which had DIFFERENT part numbers  :rolleyes:

The number of times he's ordered me the wrong part........it got to the stage where unless I went in with the part number I'd just turn around and go back another day when he wasn't on the desk  :grin: :grin:

Mike and Dai are the two most helpful lads on parts :afro:  Had quite a few freebies  :lipsrsealed: :smug:

That's Chris  :smiley:  I didn't find him too helpful at first as he always wanted my reg number for everything I ordered until I explained to him that the parts I wanted do indeed fit my car but weren't originally fitted to it.  I don't think he'd ever heard the term 'modifying'  :grin: :grin:

One of the lads though gave me a great compliment about my MK5 boot lid handle - he thought it was a replica part rather than having had the handle welded in; said it looked factory fitted  :cool:

Used to be ok for me until they stopped doing all VAG parts  :sad:  Will only sell VW parts now.

Luckily I got a mate with a TPS account  :smug:
