This poses the question. Who has the most vw parts repurposed on their Elgrand? Not that I can talk I don't have any on mine but I am forced to drive one begrudgingly at work. It's always so nice to get out of the cramped enclosure of a vw and back into the comfortable spaciousness of my Elgrand.

Bit of wet sanding , gone from this no1 to this no2. still a bit of work to do . Also went round bus with touch up brush , filling in any other chips or blemishes ready to wet sand down, cut and then polish . I'm quite happy with my hours work . Getting ready for 2 trips to exhaust places to get quotes for Cat back exhaust 
. Also gone off the idea of changing my double din, I've bought a Dab+ box thing to wire and wirelessly get a better radio signal/sound .

Awesome news. All legal for another 12 months.
On an app I've got to keep track of mot and such it says an Elgrand has a 66.8% of passing based on all Elgrand mots. Seems missing a rear gog is a common failure. Haha

Not my personal car, but on the 4000kms E50 we recently purchased and are preparing.
Converted the rear reflector into a fog light.
Quite pleased with myself and brighter than I was expecting.
Only ordered the bulbs yesterday too.
Next time I do one I will butt the strips together and feed wires from either side.
Either way looks much better than cutting the bumper and easily reverted if not to buyers taste.
