Thanks guys.
Yeah not much will change in regards to the way it looks. Jess is rapped with the way it looks so no changes are on the cards just yet.

Dont wind the windows down if they are electric.....the window regulators have plastic slides that break and leave you with the glass at the bottom of
the door. Its the same problem as the Golf 4's and Audi's of the same era...

there is a window regulator upgrade that came out after 2003. our cabrio had the problem of banging at the end of travel at the bottom and also not
dropping to clear the roof when we opened the doors. had the regulators replaced with the newer versions and have not had trouble since.

Hey Bern.
Naa, still no more dubs for me. This is for jess. Its all her hard work to get it. I am happy to just play with other peoples dubs when they need help
now.
But yes, it is a really nice car to drive and has looks to boot. Have to say they i don't mind getting in her and taking it for a drive
jace & jess
