    I'm also interested in this, my clocks have too many miles on since I replaced them with a second hand set. Wouldn't mind a few extra but it was 50k more!

    TBH the mileage doesnt just relate to the engine. Its the whole car. Including running gear, Bearings bushes etc. I'd rather know what the car had done with some proof of engine mileage condition.

    trial fit is good

    I may be echoing what others have said but that is one helluva nice looking mk3 - the finest i've seen for sure, i've never been a fan of the mk3 in the slightest and i've prob went out of my way to slate them in the past but i can honestly say i'd be proud as **** to have that sitting on my driveway, especially with all the little touches that aren't immediately apparent until you look closely and now with S3 power.....and to think this car and build is due to getting ****ed over by your ex.

    Well done kells, I'd be a happy man if i owned that car.

    I don't normally post gushy comments in these sorts of thread, but I feel like I need to here, that is the nicest mk3 ever, makes me wish i'd kept mine and stuck a 20V in it like I had wanted to. Well done for doing such a tidy engine install, the interior lights look brilliant, and as for it being 5 door, everyone knows 5 doors are better!!!
