Haha, nice.
Love all the photos so far, soooo glad I have the car now!
If anyone has any photos of the interior and dash, post them too…would be good to compare with other cars.
Thanks for all the posts and photos so far, keep them coming!

Haha I don't blame you. I think I'd get that way if she was mine.
Must say looking at your second pic I have a real urge to give her a good clean! lol
Paint job is looking beautiful btw.

All these cars are in such good condition, must have been so much work and time put into them. How do you ever know where to start?!

i have fully serviced it, cam belt, tensioner, plugs leads, cap rotor, alternator belt, coolan,t oil, filters, 4 tyres, 2 front shocks and top mounts, apart from that i really just polish it and use it.
I fully valeted it inside, under rear seats aswell!! and rectified a few little minor things like a non working leccy passenger window and a few dash bulbs behind the heater and ciggy lighter.
Fortunately it was a pretty spot on car when i got it, so i have just fettled it, driven it around fast and slow :wink: for a year in all weathers and its never let me down once!
In fact out of the 5 mk1`s i have had it drives absolutely faultless and the best and most comfy by far, so glad i bought it.

then there was a gap of about 7 years without a mk1 :cry: that time was taken up by a 220bhp Tornado Red Rallye golf, and my Highline VR6 which i still own 8) and i bought the sportline last year, i had always wanted one, and as they say good things come to those who wait!! i was in the army in the early 90s and i could never afford the near 16k price tag for one back then, so fortunatley for me its previous owners all looked after it well i doubt i would ever sell it as it would be too hard to find another thats as sound as this one

How about my Karmann comment? All cabs are Karmann??
Yep, all cabbies were built by coachbuilders Karmann in Osnabr?ck.
(That eastern Europe trip sounds fantastic, by the way - respect)
