Well done Alasdair, I must admit it was not a job I was looking forward to when I had my 2 Xantias..

I'm about to do a job on my son's car (VW golf mk 6) rusted lower transverse arms rusted through with lovely holes..
Only 4 bolts to take off. 2 I know will come off as i did the springs a couple year ago but the middle 2 are original so getting my angle grinder ready.

So I cleaned the loan car ready to go back to its owner........it needed it, the owner is not a great fan of washing cars.
Must be a trait amongst those that share a name ;) :lol:
