I wish it was as easy as this when repairing four cylinder never mind a V eight!

Like most jobs, it's a lot easier with the right tools, a hygienically clean factory and no kids wanting to get their bikes out.

I accept they want to sell it as a 'handmade' engine, but it was a surprisingly inefficient work layout. 


Shadow blue DSG 5 door with leather, sunroof, 18" Monzas, MFSW. 
Full list of mods:  Seat inserts and a VW bottle opener.  Each worth 20bhp.
