Thanks again everyone.

I am sure I'll enjoy my stay here, already loving the GTI.

Pictures of my shed this weekend, along with project plans etc.

@Len;

Are the boat comments directed at my profession, or is it some sort of VW joke !?

Its nearly midnight so my brain isn't functioning at the moment.

Damien.

Hah, nope, i drove a hard bargain when i bought the car, took advantage of the previous owners student status.

Went on a shopping spree this evening, bought the following;

Spark plugs, leads, dizzy cap and arm, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, -60mm suspension kit, trim clips, towing eye cover, new door lock pins, new head lights, cleaner interior, fitted mats and a set of euro plates.

Im bidding on a brand new wing and a set of primed doors !

Project is under way with a vengeance.
