Just to let everyone know - Re: the Golf

[neil_cardiff]

Having had a quick scan of the parts database known as Ebay, I've found a local source of the bits I need, in the right colour, and once the chap replies to me, I shall be getting the bits - plus other bits I needed anyway - hopefully at super cheap prices (i.e. cheaper than a gallon of antifreeze for a Porsche ), and the Golf will look right as rain

She's running perfectly still, and returned 37mpg on the way home

You gotta love her - spent all day teararsing about, had a wee incident, yet still chugs away happily

Thanks for all the concerned support on the day chaps
