if your still looking mate

I wonder what (presumably awful) brand of rubber are on those.  Selling wheels with new tyres on and don't mention the brand in the advert - it's got to be bad!
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Actually she didn't, because I'd usually already asked.

A bit of a delayed update, but the old girl was fixed in time so a roadtrip to a bikers memorial weekend went ahead.

Friday she was back in the garage

Sump plug threads were beyond their best so a Helicoil insert went in and she is no longer staining the cobblestone driveway  :cool:

Rear pads changed and the suspect sticky caliper issue sorted

Brake fluid changed

CV boot resecured

Still to do the anti roll bar bushes as the only supplied the links not the lower arm bush too

New number plates are here,

 as is the door lock repair kit, so once the passat is collected tomorrow, the mission to do that is on  :lipsrsealed:

done over 120 miles and the fuel gauge hasnt even dropped below the FULL line yet  :cool:

and the wheel search continues, might be dropping down to run some 14s  :huh:
