Thanks guys hoping to just find some cheapies in S.A:grind:

I have a couple of cheapies in Taree but they are cracked and the freight would be worth more than they are. Cheap and volkswagen do not go together buy a couple of new ones and save a lot of heartache and rework.

I know what your saying grumble and have an idea of the cost of getting them recond, but you never know if you don't ask:grind:
