on the subject of engines, yep you can get an exchange enginem either in short form (built up block) or complete

obviously we need your engine in exchange, and it mucst be a useabel sata externaly (ie no rod through block etc etc )

I remember when I was at the parts counter getting info on a vinyl interior door panel for a MK IV Golf once.

It was expensive.

Just for a laugh, I got a price for one for the foreman's MK III convertible (they are all leather)

£320

For one panel

I think that was trade too

Might have even excluded VAT

vw are thieving cunts

If they're the main axle bushes, they are no joke Dan.

Proper pain in the arse job to do.

Very time consuming, and equipment to do them costs an arm and a leg. And usually doesn't work.
