After months of searching for a MK1 Clipper, Sportline or Cabby GTI today i finally found one i liked and brought it hooray.
Bodywork it totally mint. its had a bit of money spent on it at some point which is fine with me Drove is back home 100 miles and it didn't miss a beat.. best 2 hours i had for a while
Not to sure about the wheels yet might change them to some BBS RA's at some point
Requires a few little bits for the interior but overall I'm well pleased..

Don't tell the missus that!

Cheers for the comments guys… as I said I am very happy with it.
Going to get the belts changed on it in the coming weeks and get it serviced.. and do a few little bits to the interior.. etc but overall its pretty sorted..
On the service side, is this about right.
* Oil and Filter
* Air filter
* Spark Plugs and HT Leads
* Distributor and Rotor Arm
Going to get my local garage to do the belts. don't fancy that one just yet
Yeah my little boy wanted us to have a drive around with the roof down on Saturday … he loved it..
Did you stick this in the wrong thread? @hawkeysr

Glad you liking it. It's a tidy car so bar the servicing, hopefully you can just enjoy it. Your son will be hounding to drive around with the roof down always now!
