Forgot i had booked today and tomorrow off work.. so after i walked in and then out work thought id have a quick go at the golf.

the front braided hoses are on, and the pads are in. although not being 100% sure what car my 280mms are of led to some confussion to which pads i needed, so i went to do the job with 2 sets... but there were that similar i dont know if i put the right ones in or what... anywhos pics ( not very exciting ones )

Re-positioned the catch tank to under the coolant tank. bit neater.

Update but no pictures 

Saturday got the old girl into work, fitted the new 22mm master cylinder no problem, but my brake pedal stiff felt crap even after bleeding loads. finally discovered the N/S/F calliper was sticking. so i stripped the brakes down and sorted it, then re-bled all good.
Fitted some Legal english GB reg plates and...

today it passed the MOT with no adviserys, although the handbrake is abit iffy lol. so im well happy its fully insured but i need the documents to tax it, the online tax thing refuses to believe that i have insurance at the moment lol.
