Mk2 Parts Obsolete at VW
« on: 10 November 2008, 20:23 »

Unfortunately, they are old cars now so not suprised!

I have rubbers for the front windows for a Rallye (and all other models I think) if anyone is intrested!

A manufacture only has to supply parts for 8 to 10 years, I have been finding more and more parts obsolete for my mk3 lately.

I can understand that Wayne, they have closed loads of ship building companies over the years. Must be a nightmare for MK3 owners!

The list of things not obsolete is the one I use for the Rado as it's much shorter than the list of things that are.

Yes, think I'm gonna have to get my local stealer to print me a list out. At least then I wont have to waste my time asking them!
