A new Cabby!

Hello to all!

This is my MK1 1.8 Carb. I just bought the machine last week! It needs a lot of TLC but im sure that it will look a lot better soon!

Best regards and happy 2014!!

EDITED: Not yet!

welcome along mate, nice set of pictures
it doesn't look that it needs too much doing to it

You got much planned for the car?

Thank you!

Im searching for new bumpers (like the ones on your signature) but its not an easy task here in Portugal! It needs a new roof and some attention in the interior!

Welcome Mobys - thanks for joining us from Portugal!

That's a nice looking Cabby

Heres the bumpers for sale on VW Heritage, and they do ship to Portugal

Hi, there.  Just recently come back from the Algarve and whilst driving from the airport saw three cabbies and a tin top.  Only saw one mk2.  Was jealous I wasn't in my cabby cruising in the sunshine with the hood down!

Welcome to the forum - looks like a nice motor.

Damn… they're expensive!!!

Thank you all!

Welcome!

Now this is mine!

Wow that's stunning!!    It must be low mileage? How many previous owners?

Lot's of questions, I like that!!

what happened to the other one ?!?!?

Let's just say that the previous owner of the grey one was not the best and honest person…

The red one is with 150.000 km and screams for bigger wheels!

mate, your cabrio is amazing!! my opinion, that you don't need change it.
bigger wheels? for example? this ATS wheels makes calm view of your mk1. very nice!

Thank you

I would just like to have some 14's or 15's on it!
