Been sick for a couple weeks, didn't even feel like working on a model but I finally finished this thing. Been on and off my table for about 5 years now so it really feels good to wrap it up.
So,, here's some pics.

Very nicely done Steve ! Alot of things that stand out on this besides the obvious . One is the emblems on the rear , they look like actual stick - on plastic emblems . And your PE wiper arms and blades are great ! Please show us how to do them !

That's a cool looking little Rabbit Steve! I would actually drive a 1:1 like that. The plaid on the seats is a perfect touch. Well done!

Looks good! Congrats on finally wrapping it up! 
I'd love to hear about the seat covers and PE wipers as well when you feel better.

Superb build ! what model is this ?? I remember working for V.A.G here in England, and had a Rabbit imported from the U.S to compare it to a Euro version, which we call the Golf, I couldn't believe just how much they were different,
