Firstly, I am not talking about my wife.
Secondly, if the mods think that this counts as a 'whats it worth' thread, then feel free to delete - but it's not really my intention.
Last year, my G Reg standard Mk2 Gti 8v had the headlight(dimmer?) wiring loom problem where the wires chaff under the airbox and for some reason it is a unfused circuit so it fried the wires.
She was recovered home and I disconnected the loom however I couldn't get her to start. I figured that something had blown - maybe immobiliser - and my thoughts were that I may have figured the problem in a few hours or it could have been days. So I bought another one.
I thought I would keep if so when the MOT ran out on my new 8V, I could nick bits off it but as it turned out that wasn't necessary. Now it needs to go.
Obviously I could break it for maximum profit or scrap it for metal for maximum ease. I am probably somewhere in the middle though and I would have thought the engine was too good to waste - especially if it can help out another forum member.
If this was yours, what would you do?
