Just found its available from EuroParts for £10.99 with free postage - linky

That's not the same as the one I fitted. It would appear VW/Mann make 3 different types of pollen filter for the golf; 1 standard, 2 charcoal (filters out more pollutants & odours) & now 3 the frecious-plus (does 1&2 + filters out Allergens ) link below for info :wink:

Yeah unfortunately its not the right one, vidman.  I have a few ppl I know at ECP and they didn't even have the part listed last week, hence the link to Amazon

I just fitted the 10 pound one from eurocarparts. It's the carbon one and it seems ok.

Is there another one we should be fitting?
