For Sure!
Right some bad news now
Drivers side outer CV boot has split...only a very small hole, but centrifugal force is forcing the grease out of the boot slowly, so its not good! Gonna patch it over tomorrow as a temp measure, then get a replacement boot ordered and fitted next week sometime
Just when everything was perfect!

its not going to get wrecked on the strip with a small split on the CV boot, its not like you're going to be driving over proper dirty poor track. It'll be fine, anyway he's got a new one ordered anyway!

Stunning.
Even better in the flesh.
Best colour for a GTI.
Not as fast as silver though.
Even one with a warped N/S/F brake disc and dry rear shocker.
Could make the trip to York on Easter Monday?

Replaced the CV boot today - what a pig of a job that was!!!! Got absolutely covered in grease from the boot, and had problems with the drive shaft nut and omg it was just evil, but its fixed now
Ill add a photo to here later when i connect the camera...its amusing!
