Btw, your new Golf isn't, by chance, one of those new type of small car thingys with the rear indicators inside of the circular rear break lights ??

Twice now I've nearly hit the back of such cars as I've no idea the indicator is on until the break lights are released confused
Yeah

How did that get through type approval? I completely agree with you on that jockets

Firstly, it's a Polo not a Golf!

Secondly, no. The indicators are at the bottom of the lights (the clear bits in the photo below), whereas the brake lights are at the top smile

Got an ML for all the things where a large 4x4 is required and it is great in the snow



Got an SL55 for when the sun comes out (so it never gets used wink)




and a Mini JCW for popping into town centres and hanging around McDonalds car parks



which started out looking like this (left side)



I nailed on parts as per SWMBO instructions sent from Gruppenführer HQ.

JCW Aero Kit
New Wheels and non runflat tyres
Chrome door mirror caps
Chrome intercooler intake
Stainless Steel driving lights (the chrome ones I had rusted within a year)
