A South African VW dealer offered me a new kit comprising an  Audi five and
5-speed trans, ready to bolt-in and connect up. Price appx R22000 (about
$3006US) plus ~R2000 freight to NZ. Looking back at the message now, I
think these prices included a set of grills/lights. Offer made last year.

I doubt there are any I5 engines from RSA now, just I5s.
