My Car !

Hi All

Just wanted to post a pic of my mint Mk1 - lovingly garaged over winter and soon to be modded with 15" RM's, ARB's, poly bushed all round, TA lowered susp & lower front SB. Hope you like it !

Is there likely to be a mk1 meet this year as I did not have the car to make the Gaydon meet?

Cheers
Mark

It's already modded, chrome badge.

Peter.

I would leave it just as it is. It looks great. All you need as Tallpete says is a black grille badge.

Save your money what you will be spending and go on Holiday with it!

…as above…..DON'T mod it !!!!!!

Wow minter.
You could leave it standard, but I think some nice wheels always set you apart from the crowd, and you can always change them back. Wheels only though leave the rest as is.  

WOW! Looks lovely mate!

I too think that a nice set of rims would really set it off.
A black badge would be better too…

nice clean car mate  do what you you gotta do  only dead fish flow with the tide  good luck

Quite funny that, what your car look like?

rt pmd  you

I like the colour!

Lovely Mk1 you have there, I would leave it the way it is except I would throw on a black VW badge on the front grill.
Nice car man

Thanks for the comments guys.

I'm very lucky to have found this one - it is a minter and I am chuffed to bits  

Did not realise about the badge though - have to say I was not sure about it anyway so an OE black one it is.

As for the changes - only a 35mm drop and I am keeping the original wheels after the RM's go on - sorry to dissapoint the 'original look' crew  :cry:    It does need the bushes doing and who's going to know about the suspension anyway?

Great car and a hoot to drive - very different to each of the other fast golfs ive owned.

As per my original q'n - is there another Gaydon meet lined up this year?

Cheers

Mark1,

Yes we have tabled the idea and is most likely to go ahead - no dates or anything confirmed yet.

Now about that committee……

Thanks crazyquiff - looking forward to that meet.  8)

crazyquiff - just a thought, but I travel to the Aston factory fairly regularly as part of my job so if I can help with the Gaydon meet in any way, please let me know.

I would personnaly go with the suspension mods but keep the alloys. I think they look great on a Mk1.  Not many mk1's with standard alloys on these days mind, so standard is modified  

 But it is your choice of course.
