My Mk1 cabrio BEFORE & AFTER!!!!!!
Thought it was about time i should join in and post some pictures of my MK1!! …. (sorry about the quality of some of the pictures!!)
2 years ago when i bought it!!!
not so tidy… and a very dodgy roof!!!!
Quality interior and dash!!!
But this is why i bought it…. after alot of hard work….
and some new wheels…
and with some hard work and some material….. (made myself!!!!! as you can probably tell???)

I really must say the decals on the side spoil the car for me! Lets not take anything away from your efforts though, the car looks very nice. I just think you will be seen by other drivers in the same way as maybe a fiesta with a huge "turbo" sticker down each side, or one of these baseball cap wearing corsa boys with a big bore exaust and "corsa" in huge letters on it! Can you see what I mean? The sticker might be beautifully made and applied with expert precision, but is out of keeping with the rest of the car and for me detracts from your hard work! :doh:

Walt….. nicely put!!! I think?
Just a couple of points in reply:
1. A baseball cap would flatten my hair!!!
2. I do NOT have a big bore exhaust!!! — and don't want one!!!
3. I am NOT a girl racer!!!! — I have grown out of that one!!!
It seems that other Females love it and Men don't!!!
I AM IN NEED OF SOME GIRLS OPINION'S HERE!!!! (please don't prove me wrong!!!)
Thanx

overall I think you've done a great job there! each Mk1 has it's own look and character and if it's the way you like it :y: that's the main thing
as others I personally am not a big fan of decal's of any sort (other than the club sticker :wink: ) but it's only stickers at the end of the day :wink:

I like it …… a lot!
As for the graphics - each to their own. Your car = Your choice!
& its good to see that hard work pays off in the end.

I stand by what I said but at the end of the day all that matters is that you (Jocy) love it and you clearly do - If we were all the same and every body drove a standard mk1 golf the world would be a boring place, I like the fact corsas look stupid with big exhausts, blacked out window and please steel my KENWOOD sticker in the window, they make my car look great 8)
