I quite like VAGs animated indicators   :-[ They do help them stand out from the bright led brake lights.
Another variation I've seen on a newish Golf was that the two strips of amber leds alternated with each other .... I assume a mod rather than a VW option.

They look a bit silly as hazard warning lights, though.

It's z20M petrol blue.  Identical to mine. Took me 12 months to find a door in a scrap yard the right colour, (and 15 minutes to swap it).  Wheels are weird, and WHY the stupid air filter?

Ad says it's on Elite wheels but from the pictures they look nothing like the wheels on my Elite.Why would a 3.2 have needed an engine re-build? I'd have thought it would breeze 120,000 odd miles without needing one?

Depends on your definition of a rebuild I guess. The ad is hardly specific about what was done, beyond the timing belt

Perhaps the timing belt failing was the cause of the engine "rebuild" becoming necessary  ::)

Looks like Astra wheels so offset will be wrong.

On the genuine tinted lights it's only the white section that is tinted, the red is as normal - this one clearly has spray tint over the whole lense.

Interesting. Probably explains the previous "time waster"  ::)
