One thing I like about my Golf...the whole front end unbolts making it much easier to remove

Wings off to sell Robin - Didn't want to Scratch/Dent! One wing sold already.
We used my new jack to lift the car up, and massive axle stands to hold the calibra nice and high.
Then lowered the engine onto Pallet/Bread Tray Wheels, and wheeled it out
