Not a good resto either, still had rot on it, rust blisters etc.
Not owning one myself being a cabby owner, someone mentioned that the side stripes on the lower setion were upside down??
Generally though the programme is still very watchable, we could all do with a fully equiped workshop…..

I hope they do another one with a bigger budget

I think if they have a bigger budget they can do a strip down resto hopefully

Yep, side stripes were upside and down and too low. Their 'restos' have certainly improved over the series, more budget as Allana13 mentions allows them to do a proper job

I had to laugh at bits of it and I am by no means a MK1 guru!  The missus found it and let me watch it- Bargain.  Didn't even realise this programme was still on.  Are they still makin it?  This episode was from 2002 I think.

It's a really top show and has got better and better ( first series wasn't great quality wise) …. they have restored such classics like Audi quattro, lancia delta integrale, Sierra cosworth etc…..

When I first saw the program and saw the golf on it I was sad that back in the day I never owned one….. several weeks later I bought mine.

Respect Ed China lol

i like how the bird that buys it at the end sounds so scripted when she is asking about what they have done to it
