Long story, bored of telling it. Had to find more cash which would have pushed us beyond our means at this moment in time and we would rather just save now and see how things pan out in the economy.

Looks nice 
Refreshing to see someone who doesn't buy into the "You must have a house bought first and foremost" culture we are in now

It's the biggest purchase of your life. Average age for people getting a mortgage is 33!! Bet a lot of people didn't know that.

I like that shape GTi, shame they didn't do a 20VT or pd130/160 lumps in it. Is the gearbox ok? There a common thing to go IIRC

Is there a tool you need to split them? I've got a dremel so will get a polishing bit for it and do the outer rim and do it myself I think. Quite good with rattle cans.

Problem with rattle cans it wont be a durable finish like if you had them painted in 2 pac paint. You'll forver be repainting them.
