Re: nothing special- more expense

Re: FOG LIGHTS AS DRLS

none, drl's look pants,
only my opinion but not seen a 5.5 with nice drl's.

And using the fogs to do it could get you in trouble with the old bill and/or with the mot tester.

Re: Rear Caliper Reset Tool

I got the second one when it was a little cheaper, albeit only by 3 quid.

I only brought it to do the passat, so wasn't expecting much because of the cheap price. But it's been used loads of times on various cars, with good effect.
Worth the money

Re: Sticking on door rub strips - double sided foam?

also known as badge tape or number plate tape.

loads all over ebay, hobby shops, bodyshop suppliers

3m is obviously the popular one because of the name. But names like starline are just as good. (most paint suppliers sell both).

Re: new summer toy

I know the lad who put this car together.

Proper VW fanatic. Only thing is he gets bored of his cars really quick.

Lets hope you can keep this longer than anyone one else.
The car is starting to get a name as it seems to be doing the rounds......
