Visited the stealers to buy a new splitter and "stowage box".... Fitted new splitter (what a right pain in the a**e that was)

Finally fitted the "stowage box" in place of the CD Changer and at last have somewhere to put the owners manual other than shoved in the door card pocket :)

At the weekend I washed, clayed, polished, waxed and sealed the bonnet, wings and roof... This weekend (if the rain stays away) hopefully get the rest of the car done and looking spik an span once again!

There's a space under the steering wheel to the left that fits the owners manual perfectly :)

Gathered a whole heap of tools and parts together ahead of some fun time - replacing rear beam bushes and top mounts, and both front wheel bearings and top mounts. Just need some good weather now :D

VAGCOM'd my LC and it came up with just the one fault - intermittent MAF problem, which is something I suspected. Will had a play with that this weekend. Also redid the drivers door seal. Despite the MAF error, she is running beautifully now since replacing the CAT - so smooth.
