Hey Guys,
I just changed my distributor, rotor and leads. I checked them recently and I think they could have still be the original set. There was a fair bit of corrosion on the contacts.
I didn't have any problems before, I just I did it to avoid any future issues :cookie:

Probably not the original parts, but definitely well-used.

Unlikely they are original unless you have very low km. I replaced the same on my Mk2 back in 2005 and they looked like that. Mine only had about 80k km on the clock.

Could have been the original, my car has just hit 89,000kms :)
