    The golf with the g60 one reg was from Aberdeen
    Was up for sale about 7 years wish I had gone to see it
    Was also up for sale at a mk2 dealer a few months after it sold in Aberdeen at the same price

    I should really have bought this but didn't has the money at the time

    Interesting to know. I wonder what condition it's in these days? I'm sure I bumped into someone a few years back on a forum (maybe Edition38 but can't remember) who then owned it.

    I must also point out that my car is shown as RED on the V5 so technically I'm in with the elite... :lol:

    Yeah the price of Digifiz units is going crazy lately.

    Well actually the price of any MK2 part is going stupid lately! I'm glad I bought loads of stuff I needed ten years ago and hoarded it.

    It started out as a red shell too! (Edit - I mean G60 ONE. My Syncro is and always was Dark Burgundy Metallic, an Edition One trim option)

    Cheers fasteddie :) It's really good to be making progress now and to throw an update up. It's seeing builds like yours that helped motivate me to get my finger out with it.

    Hey Trev, great work with the repairs and on the underside. I used the epoxy 121 on my quattro and its great stuff. I'll be keeping an eye on this.

    Trev, the loom for your seats, is it just a direct 12v feed? I was thinking of connecting mine to the cigarette lighter. Possible?

    Thanks Conor. :)

    I must admit I don't know off the top of my head how the seat loom is arranged and what point it takes its positive feed. With many amps needed for the motors, I'm going to make a total guess that the +12V supply would come off one of the "Z" connectors on the back of the CE2 fusebox, then via a fuse clipped to the top somewhere? I would bet that either Rubjonny's fusebox FAQ would indicate this, or alternatively he most likely has a diagram for it in his Google drive stash (see his sig). I'll try to have a look shortly. When I'm back at home I can also dig out the actual wiring loom.
