Just to close this thread off.

The car has now been sold and is off to a good home in Buckinghamshire. I hope the new owner enjoys the car as much as I have.

Now on with the VW Earlybay resto...!

I was going to suggest an Alfa 156 until I read the bit about "odds-on to get me there"! :lol: Seriously though, I've covered 30,000 miles in my 2001 1.6 and have only been trailered home once (touching wood at the moment!).
