All MOt'd and taxed for the winter.

Well thats my Porsche away for the winter now.

Tucked up nice in the garage on a trickle charger.

I will be running this very nice 1.6 mk1 diesel for 6 month then  it will be for sale.


Does anyone know the pressure i should be putting in they tyres for these wheels?
I think they are from a MK2.

Hey Denzo, your cars look stunning mate!  8)

The wheels look like Mk2 steels - if they are 15" they are commonly know as g60 steels. I run my tyres at about 32psi,

I hope you enjoy mk1 motoring over winter.  :punk:

Bert is the Diesel Guru

He should be able to sort out most questions.

 :wink:

Funny, most people put the MK1 away and drive the daily over winter.

Thanks for the replys peeps.
Gav they are 14" running them at 30psi now

Hello again.
Well it's been nearly two months now and
I am amazed at this little car. I have started
Work at 5am this past 5 days and it's freezing
Up here. Car starts 1st time every time. No water
Or ice in the car. Car feels solid and it's returning
About 55 mpg and sometimes more. I am used to
About 22 mpg so for me it's some change.

Good stuff mate, sounds like your falling in love with the old girl, you'll be selling the Porsche before long!  :wink:  

Cheers Gav
Filled her up today 330 miles i have done in 3 weeks and she only took £32. Brilliant.
Stuck two new front tyres on her yesterday for 70 notes. Amazing. My Porsche is 245 a corner.

Nice one Denzo
Cant wait to get minr back on the road.

You'll be keeping the golf then, and sell the porsche!!

let me know when your selling

been looking around a desiel for a whole now

I am 1st in the que        

Glad it's working out for you Denzo! Bit different to the Porsche eh?    Any more photos of the diesel?
I use my mk1 diesel all year round too…freezing & snow-covered early starts at the moment too. I love it, puts much newer cars to shame at times! It does so well in the snow, tailor made - it won't run away with you when you use the gears downhilll or pulling up to junctions…and there's none of this spinning the wheels like a silly bugger to get up the slightest slope! Glad it's done you proud.

P.S - I've got the same 14'' steelies on mine. I got new tyres fitted for £28 each! But £35 aint bad.
