106 gti or get another one off a vts, theres always a few being broken for parts on here. Once your post count gets up and been a member for a few weeks you can look in the for sale section iirc.

the hub is part of the strut but why is it fucked?
Might be a loose wheel bearing or perhaps the balljoint hole has gone oval?

Sounds like the part of it where the taper and pinch bolt goes in has gone oval
