long time since last update, not a lot has happened over the last few years ( engine in my VK needed a rebuild and saving/planning a wedding ) anyways, since then I have:
fitted engine & box
fitted exhaust
fitted the mk2 front struts
fitted the lowered rear springs
got some 13x6 minilites ( thanks SMCKA )
replaced the tie rod ends and the TCAs
 
that's about it I think
