Lots more to come this side of xmas, hopefully modifications rather than repairs!

Coilovers.
Momo wheel and boss kit
Magnex full system
Momo gear knob
Front and back discs and pads.
Every bearing and bush on the car.
Fuel pump housing
Rear Calliper
Hand brake Cables
Dizzy
Timing belt and tensioner.
Leads
Plugs
2 Oil changes
Alternator toothed bracket and adjuster nut.

All of the above was just preventative maintenance except for the calliper and cables.

Next year it will be a DIY BBS refurb. Full interior overhaul and a respray. Every brake line and possibly a brand new engine from VW.
