Thanks alot

Im going to have a go at adjusting the clutch later on as it was a brand new one 30k ago, but the travels very very high on it!

And ill be getting some G60 Steelies hopefully! (Yes, I am being tight tom 'cause then ill have to spend about Â£200 for tyres ontop of the wheels! lol)

A small update!

Well that "short service" idea was scrapped and went for a full fat service...good job I did!

-Inner CV boot was split, Rear brake pads were down to minimum, had new brake hoses on too, was leaking oil abit. Oh and my rear fuel lines are corroded too which Ill sort out in the new year.

Clutch is now sorted, all oils/filters/fluids dizzy/rotor arms etc all changed and is running sweet now! The girl had a full days work on her

After I picked my car up, I drove to VW Derby and collected these:

Nothing we havn't seen before! But very simple, and will suit the GTi just perfect

Didn't have time to get the tyres on, so thats happening tommorow morning and will be good!

Love having a proper dub again
