Hello from South Wales!

Hi all,

Collecting my first Mk1 next weekend and looking forward to being part of the club! It's a 79' model that has recently undergone a restoration, but the first obvious improvement needs to be the suspension! 

Any advice on what set up to use? It's going to be carrying the family so not looking for anything too low or rigid but a nice stance with a comfortable ride (if that's possible!!)

TIA 👍🏻🍊

Welcome to the club!
Looks a tidy Mk1.
One of these kits from Classic VW, one of our main sponsors are excellent value - https://www.classic-vw.co.uk/suspension-kits-664-c.asp and will give you a drop but keep the ride quality.
They do offer a discount if you become a paid member as well :-) Take a look here for the other benefits - https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/index.php?page=membership

Thanks pal, it's been a while since I've lowered a car so any specific set up advice would be appreciated. Am I better posting in another area for advice?

Hello everyone, how are you doing?
