War wounds, indeed! Taking the thing out of the dash is almost an olympic event now. Anyone got a clue why it would become more and more difficult over time to remove and insert it? Also, it's becoming quite finicky about starting up, particularly when hot. Ah well, it's character is begining to be matched by the car itself, so I'll live with it happily.

Anyway, the worst of it was, I wasn't even present when it got chipped! Ah well. I still love it (though I like my wife's mk2 a little more).
Thanks Rob, I appreciate it.
