blimey si, if that grass was any longer you wouldnt see the car or be able to see over speedbumps...thats one low golf :grin:
i do like the jetta grill but kinda prefered it black on black on black on black!

by the way that impressive fireworks display from my valver on saturday finally killed my starter motor...
funnily enough the replacement one works much better with an earth lead :rolleyes:
If only my Volkswagen was as reliable as everyone else's...

i took the old starter motor out on friday night after work as it wouldnt start and its a right old mare as the starter motor bolts also hold the front engine mount on and you need a jack under the engine before you can do 'owt. not an ideal task in the dark and obviously i forgot to reconnect the earth lead! i guess in the morning as i bounced down my sh!tty lane to come and meet you guys it must have started arcing..
i am rather surprised it didnt fry the coil, ecu or blow up too :shocked:
