Howdy!

Hi, thought I would introduce myself! I'm Rob, from Hampshire and I'm quite fond of VW's, but Mk1 Golfs in particular.  

I've currently got a few Golfs, 1 Mk3 GL TDI which I drive daily, a 1991 Mk2 16v which I hope to sell soon, a mk2 8v which is a bit of a project and then the one that you guys will hopefully appreciate!
 
It's almost completely standard body and interior wise, which is how I like mk1's, the running gear is a little modified however (please don't crucify me  8O ) with Spax adjustables, Eibach ARBs, TSR 270mm brakes and braided hoses and a ABF which made 193bhp (at the flywheel) down at TSR in February :D  - suffice to say it goes ok!







Anyway, Hi!

Hi Rob and welcome. That's a tidy looking engine bay you have there! - and a tidy MK1, nice!

We won't crucify you, honest!! :wink:

Cheers Andy,

The engine bay is a bit better looking than that now, but hopefully given time it will look much nicer still! I stripped the whole bay when I had the old 1900 out and repainted most of it, but running out of time meant that I never got round to painting the passengers side inner wing properly :oops:  - I want to do it all again later in the year but need to concentrate on the mk2 for now!

Rob
