lol things just get worse!!

got the rack for ?25, and i had to get the pipes from the pump & resivoir also, as the unions on the rack end of the pipes are shafted

i didnt think these would be expensive, so i asked Stuart in ECP could he get them

yeah he can - ?180!! im gonna ring VAG for a laugh and see what they charge!

but i reckon im gonna be back on the phone to radicool for them!!!

WOW!  :o I work on Aircraft engines for a living and I don't think we have many hoses on them that are 180 quid. I think I would efinatly call VW. How can the rack be 30 and the hoses by 180. maybe a glitch in their system? wow again.  :o

most breakers i rang said these are like hen's teeth, and as soon as cars come in they are gone

so if you know of a PAS car getting dismantled get the pipes!!
