VR6Nat 9 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Just gotta share this, as most of u know i had my fogs, indicators and reflectors stolen, i have replaced most, but while i was sending a parts request to a vw dealer with obsolete stock i asked if he had any new (on the off chance he did and they were cheap) check out the response!! We are able to order a fog lamp set including clear trims and repeaters from Volkswagen the R.R.P Inc vat is £354.25errrrrr.... no! 8-) Link to post Share on other sites

The Monk 50 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Doesn't suprise me in the slightest.£2999.99 for a not new recon'd head. I could get mine down to a machinest and get them to buy and stick all new valves/guides ect ect for £350. VW also take your old head in exchange too.Recon'd used block with new pistons, bearings ect... £3899.99p..... again, you need to give them your block too. Machinest will do it for around £900 all new n recon'd.Just paid £5.76 for 1 x driveshaft bolt and £10 for 2 thermostat bolts.£72 for 12 bolts...wtf. Link to post Share on other sites
