C:\fakepath\image.jpg C:\fakepath\image.jpg  Hi all my name is Dave I'm from the sunny Isle of Wight. I own a 1989 Gti Cabby and a 1983 Lhasa Green Gti Tintop. The cabby is all up together and used daily and the Tintop is on a ramp while I am welding new axle mounts in. I have taken pics as I go if you are interested. All Comments welcome Thanks.

Welcome to the Club Dave.
From a former Islander himself (a real 'Cork Head').  :lol:

I think we have a couple of members now from the IOW, so they shouldn't be to hard to spot over there.  :)

Tell us a little about yourself and a whole lot more about the cars please, lots more pics because we can't see enough of them!.  :thumbs:

More info. I am 32 and have always been into cars and mechanics, all self taught. I brought the Black cabby for £600 and replaced all injector seals and vacuumed lines, also adjusted timing as it was a little out. Has no rust underneath whatsoever but could do with a little bodywork on the outside.. The Lhasa Tintop I only brought a couple of weeks ago with no T&T for £800. Outside is very good but needed welding on axle mounts. See pics. Will be putting it in for mot a soon as ready..<input class="ocp_keep_ui_controlled" readonly="readonly" size="45" title="
