First of all, a very warm welcome to the Club!

As for parts, you will notice down the lefthand side of the page our discount partners.
These Companies have been vetted by us and are approved sponsors.

But before you dive in think, about becoming a 'Paid Member' because you will receive discounts from all of these companies, plus a whole lot more!  
You'll get your money back in no time trust me.

Also search our parts for sale section, as you'll be surprised what you can find there and your buying from fellow MK1 owners.

One final thing.
Start a new post in say 'Projects' and you can post details about your car and how it develops over time.
An historical record you can always go back and refer to at anytime!  


Hope you find what your looking for and stick around a while!

Hi Ashley,

Welcome to the club,

Go to the home page of the forum, look for the Official Sponsor banner and click on Classic-VW.co.uk

Mark is a great lad and very decent on price as well, if its not listed on his website just give him a call as he's always got more stock than listed. It usually works for me !

I work for VW Heritage, feel free to PM with any questions, or check us out online at https://www.vwheritage.com/shop/golf-mk1

We offer a pretty speedy delivery, and its free over £35 to the UK (including highlands, Islands and Northern Ireland) when ordered online.)

We have a great full colour catalogue too.

Enjoy the forum, its a great resource.
