What do you think of the custom exhaust job? The picture shows only the lower muffler, but there is a second one on top of that going the other way. Left 3 cylinders are not connected to the right ones. (Just cross your arms to known what i mean).

Also on the pictures you see them new Kumho KH15 tires.

Yes, Arran, there are 2 mufflers (you can only see 1 round one on the picture).

I've attached a picture that shows the mufflers from the lower right side for clarification

They use those wipers on most new VW passats golfs etc... they are pretty good and supposidly spread the force on the windcreen a little better than the traditional style.

Just got back from MOT. I failed.

- CO was a little too high. That was probably because the car sat still too long. Easily fixed by driving more and adding a cleaner fluid to the fuel.
- I seem to have too much break lights. This never was a problem. Also easily fixed by removing some bulbs
- I do need new balljoint jackets (translated from fuseekogelhoesjes) in the front, 4 pieces (2 up/2 down). These are practically worn out and need to be replaced

That's all! No rust, no leakage. Pretty good actually for a car that was stored for more than 4 years.

Now I need to get on the phone with Ed U, to order some stuff.
