    haha that's what everyone is saying Graham :p
    technically yeah I should, but waiting on my clutch to come from the states then i'l drop the box and engine in the TT. I have a spare n/a box here so that will go straight in this car. but being honest, this won't see the road for around 4-6 months and the TT will be on the road 2 months max :)

    I'm confused is it a series 1 or 2? Since it has s2 climate control but tweed interior??

    haha it's a series 2 Ryan, but before the guy sold it he took all the velour. doesn't worry me it's being replaced when I get home just want it rolling and functional for now!
