Newbie, but actually really old in every other respect

Hey All,

Just thought I'd drop a line and introduce myself. I'm not too big on internet forums, however I've read some real useful tips on here, and I might add I'm always pleasantly suprised at the genuine interest in the Mk1's. Personally, I bought my first Golf GTi (1600) in 1982, I sold this to a friend and replaced it with a Campaign version in Dec 85. I still own this car and although at times I feel for a change, I still enjoy driving it and it has never failed to return me home.

Welcome & hope you enjoy  

Hi Scully

Welcome to the club and thank you for paying up and joining!

Don't worry about being old, there's quite a few of us older ones here!

It's great to hear that you owned your MK1 for so long, it would be great to see some photos of her if you have any?

You say you're not big on forums so in case you need any tips on posting up pics there's a how-to thread in the Newbie section of the forum.

Enjoy your time here and hope we get to see your Campaign soon

Cheers
Andy

Hi there and welcome to the club mate. Got any pics of your MK1?

Good to see some new enthusiasts joiing up.  

Hi Andy/Cero/Smudger - Many thanks for the welcome messages.

I'm in the process of uploading a few pictures, though they're only Smartphone one's which I've just taken in low light conditions.   

I've followed the the very useful instruction in the Newbie section, so here goes!

Oh my, I've done it. Now for a rest!!

       

Good work Scully! Nice Mk1 too  

Welcome to the club , nice mk1. ……What's her name ?  

Welcome to the site Scully.

The Mk1 looks awsome. I love the Tailblazer/Heckblende. Still in the process of getting of my hands one.
