I took delivery of my complete MK4 Kit in May 2014. In April, I attended the 3 day Build School which was very informative and I highly recommend it. I incorporated many of the build tips from the instructors. Since I am now retired, I was able to complete my build in less than 2 years. Many thanks go out to all the technical help I received from Factory Five, F5 Forum and FF Cars Forum. You guys pulled me out of a jam several times with your responses to my forum posts.
