Let me give you an example: One of the well-known failure points on the T5 and T6 vans are the windscreen washers, the "corrugated" tube that leads from the washer bottle has too acute an angle at the bonnet hinge and eventually splits. You can buy adaptor sleeves from eBay (it's that common) but what you can't get is the hose. My mate at the breakers yard stripped a load of it out of a T5 and that was being broken up and sent me a roll for wait for it ....[drum roll] £5 and that included postage. VW wanted a whole load more.

Seems I need to find me an old T5. Got loads of space on the drive (not sure what H would say though... ) :)
