hi i am just trying to be carefull as i got told to stay away from the original jacking points and in my case it looks like they have had a bit of work done around them in the past.

So what happens when you have to change a wheel?

Me thinks his jp's are suspect (mot will soon confirm)with the vw jack . but its ok to use the chassis outriggers as said above,

B&W film, process yerself, scan negatives; see, easy

front jacking points arent a fail on the mot.

there must be some pretty big holes if the jacking points fail!
