This is half of the kit. You would still need the cranked tool as well.

Good shout by Simmy. Karl is always breaking Convertibles and is a genuine chap to deal with. He is on the Facebook groups and based in Melbourne Derbyshire.
This is a good group to join and Karl regularly posts the cars he is breaking on there.https://www.facebook.com/groups/1471778763071232/

All sorted, from the unlikeliest of sources.

Turns out one of the guitarists in the band in which I play had one in the late 90's and still had the kit in his garage so I got the full kit, still in its original clear plastic wallet, for nowt.

The original plastic wallets are rarer than the actual tools.

Yeah, when I mentioned it to him at the pub yesterday he went all misty eyed and started going on about the T5 vert he'd had, how it was a great car, a bird puller etc.

Ironically he sold it and emigrated to Canada, but came back and now has a Passat. I drove a Passat in Canada, emigrated here when I married a British lady, and now drive a C70

The wallet is excellent. Slightly browned with age, but soapy water and baby wipes has revived it to spotless condition.

For future reference, Karl I think does most sales on Facebook and is usually breaking 2 or 3 C70's at any one time.
