Also parts that are genuinely rare, and not just Ebay rare!  VW Motorsport gear knobs, and Recaro's spring to mind as rare, and not a set of MK2 floormats...

I've had a VW Motorsport Gear knob on my mk2 16v Turbo for about 15 years, is it really rare then?

I'll give you a tenner for it, and not a penny more :lipsrsealed:

How is that better??   :grin:

Just out of interest, what would it be worth? As I said its not for sale, I can't actually remember what I paid for it, it was so long ago!!!

Saw a couple of 'GTi 16v' front badges for sale at Inters yesterday - £20.  I'm sure you could've bartered for less - but still a resonable price.

Thom - It was nice to meet you yesterday - Mr Blue introduced us in amongst stuffing his face with Bon Bons!
