My Ed30 got treated to a full valet today as the previous owner had his own valeting company and after 9 days of ownership it was probably feeling like it needed a good cleaning.

Also dropped my Mk4 1.8T off at local garage tonight for MOT in morning, then its getting a full valet and some nice pics taken before being sold, it served me very well for 5 years without fault (Actually i just remembered it had the drivers window regulator replaced, common fault, apart from that nothing except maintenance), I will be sad to see if go  :sad1:

Good stuff, right? They'll work better in fog if you install yellow bulbs with the film;

Cheers heavyd  :happy2:

I really like it, only a small change but it makes a big difference. I've got a steering wheel badge thing to fit as well so they'll match  :grin:

Removed my APR pump I got only 4 weeks ago. In addition, removed my downpipe too. Gone back to stage 1. :sad1:
Will also be selling my car in the next coming weeks. :sad1:
