I Have owned my 2003 golf since 2007 she had 27 500km when I bought her. Back in 2014 she had 340 000km and it was starting to show so we bought a brand new 2014 Golf Wagon Wolfsburg edition. But I could not bring myself to get rid of my old mk4 after all we have went trough so much together, 2 moves over 2700km in distance, bringing my son home after having to go see him avery weekend at the the hospital 500km away. So we decided to keep her I would use her for work much easier on construction sites. Fast forward to diesel gate I am so happy I didn't get rid of my old gall since we want to get rid of are new wagon (come on VW buy it back!) and keep driving are old mk4. Only thing with that is the car need a good tune up so here come the fun part.
She needs: breaks, brake lines, calliper rebuild, hand break cables, timing belt, injectors, lots of rust repairs lots of small stuff like driver door micro switch hatch struts and a good cleaning and much more.
Here is what she look like before we bought are new wagon back in 2014

Ok It started in May 2016 with a brand new timing belt and new accessory belt tensioner. At VW Autowerks in Gatineau
In April new springs in the front one side was broken. Shocks are Bilstein are about 3 years old now so there still like new. Changed the bushing and bearing and top plate.
Top right new sway bar links from the dealer I do have 500$ to spend at the dealer after all thanks VW.
Little trick here the cover over the shock is actually zip tied so it stays down.
This is how she look like after the refreshed suspension still on the winter tires.
up in the air ready to start the rebuild
All ready to go
