Welcome Jord!

Cam follower, Diverter valve & PCV are common failures. Highly recommend replacing all of them when you buy a GTI - lots of diy guides on here  :happy2:

Just drop us a PM on here when you're thinking of going.

Its a great meet in the summer, so many people turn up from across the midlands. Get some real smart cars there  :happy2:
