Are you planning on getting Xenons Tom? It would be a real shame if they were lacking.

Tom, I have a question about the roof rack that Scott had on the Polo beforehand. Did he sell it on or did you keep it by any chance?

Hey mate, if you mean Scott before Toms old silver GTi then he sold it a couple of years ago at the polo show.
