Comments: Basically, this is my second car, the one I use for work and back, the other being the family hack for the pram/car seat etc. I saw it on ebay as a classified ad and bought it the same week.

The idea of doing this thread is that it might make me get on with things!

I guess I was lucky on the bumpers; that neither the car nor the bumpers had faded. I think the guy I got them off had no idea how much he could have sold them for!

Close on the rims front, but not Venoms, I couldn't go that 90s!

Suspension - not sure, when I get a minute, and when I've checked with the insurance about how much they want to charge me! But yeah, can't wait to get them on!

Aye, but there was only minimal usage!

But now I've got to undo it all :(

Just been reading up on these, knew they were dodgy, but didn't realise the VW ones were particularly bad :?

Had to take the backs off the next day cos one of the fronts is bust. Serves me right for being a cheapskate eh?

Ah, I can fit them - it's just that the gas has gone from one of the fronts so it would be pointless fitting it!

Are there any on eBay or anything??
