You got loads of pics with the crappy standard rears. You'll be fine  :tongue:

I remember when I sold my MK4 the bloke who bought it saw it before I had removed half the stuff. Had to show photos of what he would ACTUALLY get  :laugh:

So after toying with the idea of replacing the Mk4 for a while, I've finally decided that after I get back from MIVW in August it'll be going.

I stuck it in for it's MOT on weds, it went into a garage a mate works at, he assured me that it would go through without a cat :lipsrsealed:

The result  :rolleyes:



Also some petty advisories:



The emissions were just a tad high :grin:



The cat went back on earlier and the retest will be next week. So this is the first step in putting it back to standard, I forgot how restrictive the standard downpipe is:





The car now sounds rubbish, doesn't boost as high and doesn't rev as freely :cry:
