I had hoped the VW main dealers had started to do panels again as im owed a favour which would meen cost price.  :evil:

I thought i had heard a talk of this happening.

Shame VW unlike Merc don't supply for cherrished cars. Guess they don't care about there history.

Probably... I think the catch is they only deliver to a German address, hence why other company's are stocking up....

Shame as i have a contact for the next month or so and not able to get any bits.  :cry:

It does talk about main dealers been able to order through them but that would be VWde dealers. I wonder if VWuk could do this too?


Is there anything still listed panel wise on ETKA? or are they all obsolete?
