    Exhausted, had to wind the windows down and they aren't electric ones.

    However, with the sport pins the windows must up and down much faster?

    Being silver if they were on a Vauxhall I suspect it would be faster Phil, but unfortunately I don't have red ones, now they would be speedy.

    This thing is so cool. I love the bluemotion bits that you've put on it. Going to be wicked with the 1.8t in it!

    Unfortunately 1.8t isn't going in it anymore, that's whisked it way across the county to another members garage destined for a different project.
    It's staying 1.2 (at moment) and have a gti front bumper with the bluemotion grille and splitter to fit with a pair of new wings, after painting them
    but then I'm afraid it may be sold, a shame, but we have 4 cars at present (down from 7) and a 250 mile move later in year fingers crossed.

    That's a shame! At least the engine has gone to another member so it's going to get used in a different project. Do you mind me asking where-ish you're moving from and planning to go?

    From near Halifax and hope to move back to Somerset sort of autumn time, it's where I'm originally from, hence the push on diy and getting house sorted to sell.
    Although the garage door wire snapped earlier so something else on the list now.
    Yep the engine is getting looked after by a like minded nutter.
    The polo is currently on loan to a friend so I've had a bit of room to get to the mgf we have, sat for a year almost so time to get that back up running again.

    Ah nice! Sounds like a good move to me. I'm trying to finish my house renovation too so I can move, so need this Leon sorted as quickly as possible really so I can change my focus to DIY!

    Once this snow clears it'll start to get warmer for MGF weather hopefully.
