    A game for you all.

    Here are three non-VAG cars with visible parts borrowed from three VAG cars.

    1. Invicta S1 - more information here - this is a fairly simple one to start.

    2. Aston Martin Virage - more information here - not as simple, but still fairly easy.

    3. McLaren F1 - more information here - my personal favourite.

    All you have to do is tell me from which cars the parts have been taken.

    Go!

    The Virage had Scirocco rear lights, Corrado headlights and Golf 2 side repeaters if my memory serves me well and I think the F1 used Skoda Octavia side repeaters.

    Hex - yup - spot on. £100k+ car with a set of ~£50 rear lights.

    Crasher - Virage is correct (although I didn't know about the repeaters) and F1 may well be correct but it wasn't the one I was thinking of

    edit: My links gave away the Virage ties, I'm such an idiot sometimes

    The sleek headlights and taillights were Audi 200 and Volkswagen Scirocco units, respectively, while General Motors, Jaguar, and Ford provided the steering column, climate control panel, and dash switches. In fact, Ford purchased Aston Martin and Jaguar shortly after the Virage debuted.
    I have more cars/parts to come too, if anyone cares
