SO anyone recommend a good place besides the BS on Ebay to get a rea axel for a VTS 2003 model.

Was looking to upgrade other parts on car and now after going over a pot hole it has claimed my rear axle. Shockers I had replaced today hoping it was only them and found the old ones are end of days. After fitting new ones and testing seems rear drivers side is foobard.

Anyone know of a good place to use I looked into www.imaxle.co.uk

However they want £255 for one plus the old one in return or an extra £50 on top. Looked all around ebay and all am finding is BS and nothing worth while. I have looked at the 201 or 206 GTI but their rare and 2 I have located look rusted to heck and not good condition for the price.

Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I bought one off imaxle and it was a good job tho you have to transfer quite a lot of stuff over from your old one ie brake bias valve rear hubs etc ... worth the money tho as they can lower it to your required height !
