I've cooked VW sausages. They were given to me & they were OK. I followed the link to find that they cost ten pounds for five. They are not worth anything like that sort of money, they are just a simple bratwurst thing.

Thank you, the boot lid is stock 1303, the wings are 2inch banded to cover 7inch & 9inch Cookie Cutters. The engine is a proper oddity; the original 1285 case, but wearing 1641 barrels & pistons, a cam shaft that's just lumpy enough to make it run unevenly at 30mph in top & a pair of del...

Cheers, it was all shouty & no cars on here until recently. But its become all; 'new spoiler on my Mondeo' over there & I can't really be arsed.

Hope you are as well as can be hoped for in these desperate times!

A regular on the other & that's after extensive car-port based repairs!
