5. Last, not a bmw, but a nostalgic vehicle that takes me back to the 90's, it does have a/c but no power steering or electric windows. 1991 vw Golf Gti 1.8 8v. Totally original apart from the wheels.

Here is a feature of it by cars.co.za:

Lovely collection you have there

Just a question on the M3, did you do main bearings as well? I hear on the V8 motors, they eat the rod and main bearings, so it is prudent to do them both at the same time

Had a look at the invoice now, it was big end bearings Uppers and lower, rod bolts, sump gasket, strip/refurb and blueprint oil pump, engine mountings, injector cleaner, coolant, oil, oil filter, clean BMC filter, then some additional items on my car, replaced a vacuum pipe, manifold rubbers, jack point rubbers, pinion seal, side seals, diff oil. This was the list of items done on the last visit to Shaun @ Tunetech.

Car will have its next visit to Tunetech in October for an annual oil service and check up
