They're not holes, they're huge blobs of sealant that were holding th eplastic arches on.

Nice progress mate

Cheers.

It should be fully liveried up and looking awesome for the VAG trackday at COmbe.

Oh ok

Picked up the keys and blipper for the entrance gate for my council garage this morning and thought it would be rude nto to swing by and get a couple of snaps before heading to work. THis is where the Golf will be living once it's finished.

It's underground and secure which is a result.

can you get the trailer in there

can you get the trailer in there 

What inside the garage? No. Can I get it in the underground bit and load the car onto one? Maybe. Plenty of space outside the main gate to load up if I can't.

Lizzie should hear today if she has one down there as well for the mini.

they do look nice and dry, tidy and as you say secure.

shame its not big enough to just stick the golf on the trailer straight in 

i tried getting the golf tucked away at work, failed

Width of the trailer will always be an issue with garages. I can't afford one at the moment anyway so it doesn't matter, I'll be renting one for trackdays to begin with. £60 for 3 days isn't too bad compared £500+ to buy a knackered old one.
