I need to update this thread! lol
Fitted a new steering wheel today in any case to replace the massively worn one I had which had made a massive improvement
Also this week fitted a new set of clocks that actually count mileage, have a fully working MFA display and a working clock
All round goodness

Nice to see a car brought back from the dead
Lovely looking cars the MK2 Golfs, Volkswagen didnt really make another decent golf until the MK4 R32
How's the edition 30 going mate, have you made anymore changes to that?

I wouldn’t agree there mate the R32's are pretty special cars and the MK5 & MK6 GTI's are brilliant
Can’t beat the classic MK1 GTI but VW have redeemed themselves in recent years after some shocking Golf’s
