Welcome to V3M!

Your English is excellent - don't worry about it - would be easier to read without all the capitals though :lol:

Slovenia looks beautiful. I've never been but think I would probably like it very much.

Because you're in the EU now, be easy to send parts if you are stuck - let us know what you need.

Very good English, we can understand you no problem! As Ronnie and Petavius say, sending parts isn't too hard now, I've personally sent smallish items long distance, it's a tad costly, but at least you can get the parts to keep your car going. Get a list together, I'm sure most parts can be found, though it is a Mk2, and they're even a bit thin on the ground over here!

Hi Samo,

I'm located in Newark, between Nottingham (near the M1 motorway) and Lincoln. I live very near the A1 road.

You'd have to give me some time to get the parts together, as they're not here at present.

cheers
