Just had the call today..

My mother (!) picked up the car from the garage yesterday while im on holiday.

I bought the head for £125
Rest of bill                £600

Cant tell you exactly what the breakdown is, but included;

Cambelt kit              - Genuine
Tensioner                - Genuine
Idler thing               - Genuine
Head gasket set       - Non-gen
Head bolts               - Genuine
Aux belt                  - Genuine
Getting 2nd hand head skimmed
New bolts for pulley
Put KO3S back on instead

Sooo wish after all this, id have just put hand in pocket and paid the £400 that VW wanted.

Trying to half the bill has infact doubled it  :rolleyes: :laugh: :grin:

So happy its back, cant wait to get in it, 6 LONG SAVAGE days to go, cant wait :smiley:

My mothers comment on the fone about the drive home in it was ''Its a bit nippy aint it''... RESULT :wink:
