Thought i would update this :)

Bought a vento front! not fitted yet! got to get rid of the horrible mk4 messy front!

fixed the brakes as had issues with them! then block to matrix hoses exploded! :(

So i bought these


I started to refurb my schmidt ml splits :)


The car is now sat on the drive like this!


Spent about £450 getting all new collant setup and sensor for oil etc!

Just need to get the sills repaired :( because they are shot to bits!
