    Yeah, the photo a bit flattering to the condition of both cars. My father-in-law is driving my CL as his daily at the moment until we get the Vento on the road. He has done a great job of washing it and clearing off all the flaking clearcoat so it actually looks ok from a distance. The Vento's paintwork is in ok condition, needs a proper wash, polish and wax. There is a dent on the centre front of the bonnet that you might just be able to see if you look closely. I will need to save up some money to have it fixed but I have managed to pick up a car bra from ebay to hide it until I can afford the fix. The front bumper needs a touch up on the drivers corner where the previous owner has kissed a wall or another car.

    VR sold pending payment. Guy has another Golf with the A59 bonnet.
    Just like this one http://images.pistonheads.com/nimg/25718/A59_3-L.jpg

    Hopefully we'll see my car around somewhere.
    He plans on auto->manual conversion.

    Might get a VW in the future again. We'll see.

    Um, how does the boot light work?
    Globe seems fine but swapped it with one from the 2 door and still no luck.
    I can't even see the switch for it or how it knows the hatch is open. Maybe a fuse? Yet interior light works with doors open.
    Thanks!

    I'm guessing the boot light switch is in the latch mechanism. Will now check the earth wires from the light.
    Anyone else have this issue and how did you fix it?

    I'm out.
    Seen a dark golf with black rims and altezza tail lights around my area and also the same one at Monash Clayton. The car that was previously parked in the spot was a white Golf I think GL? maybe they upgraded to a VR?
