Got burned up on the A30 by a dark green MkII (F88DOD), I was in my diesel Mondeo and did laugh out loud when the rocco stormed past me
Must get mine back on the road, missing it already.

Thanks chaps

I did look atthe GSF website before posting here, I was under the impression that the listed inserts were the standard oil-filled ones as they didn't specifically say that they were gas-filled. Anyway, I can give 'em a call and find out.

Good call on the Bilstein inserts, to my ...

The Scala is likely going to need some new strut inserts, both front and rear. I've previously used the gas inserts but nowhere seems to list them any more, are they unavailable and if so is there an alternative I can use?

Might be the one in Gunnislake, don't think the owner is on here.

Had a convoy with the Scala's doppelganger this morning Another Tornado red Scala (ok could be a GTII) on a J plate before 9 am today on the A38 up from the Tamar road bridge.

Turned out to be both switches

However, got it sorted and the Scala now has another year's MOT

Pre-MOT check on the Scala today and found that the headlights don't come on. The sidelights work just fine so the problem appears to be the dip/main beam switch. With the switch in-situ the main beam won't stay on and the dip beam doesn't work. With the switch removed from the steering column and ...

White Mk 2 on an E plate seen in Gunnislake this afternoon at about 2 pm heading up Chapel Street. I was in GF's white van otherwise I would have waved.

A very tidy silver F-plate heading up towards Portchester railway station at about 2:45 on Sunday afternoon.

Thanks Chap. Nice to see that Vagcat is back up and running, it was down for maintenance the past few weeks.

Offside front (outer) Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt etc - this is just a little rubber thingy (cv boot?) that keeps all the crud out of the cv joint, right? Not sure of the part number on GSF. Easy enough to replace ...

Does anyone know what the VW part number is for an outer CV joint for a 1992 Scala i (DX engine)? Having problems with identifying the correct one but helpfully the online shop allows search on VW part numbers.

Cheers

Yep, it's a heater. It would have originally been on the pooburg carburettor and someone remembered to swap it onto the Weber. Ex's Golf didn't have this and it ran like crap when cold.
