Fitted a new Edition 30 handbrake cover, added the ED30 badge from the GB on here to the engine bay slam-panel, and then fitted a new Rev G diverter valve & new PCV valve.

First time of getting my hands dirty with the new car - I cursed the engine cover, & that terrible spring clamp that VW use to fit the intake to the engine cover :mad:! Fitting a jubilee clip in it's place tomorrow...


Edition 30 - no. 1387

Been in an accident. My first in my entire 8 year history of driving.  :sad1:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Thursday: bought Golf GT 170
Bought GTI splitter from member on here.
Friday: visited TPS Edinburgh
Saturday: collect a pile of parts from TPS (and fit a couple of them)
Sunday: bought Thule roof bars (from member here)
Bought a Ross-Tech Micro CAN cable from eBay.

Keenly awaiting the postman all next week.

TPS order was for R-Line front lower grilles, GTI rear valance, side skirts and fitting adapters/screws, etc and a Polo short aerial. Pics are starting to go into my build thread. Can't wait for some colour coding and fitting.  :jumpmove:
