Hi guys newbie here

Hi guys just recently bought this little beauty, collect her Sunday

Nice one - you look just a little bit chuffed!!    

Sure am, did a failed project on a mk2 a while back and now I've got a second chance. Hope I do this the justice it deserves.

It looks like you two need some alone time!  

Looks cool from the article. Will be watching with interest to see what you do with it, erm as regards the car not during your alone time with the car  

Ian

You look well happy in the first pic and youre not even driving it yet !!!      

Oh and welcome along mate would be cool to keep it looking the same as it did in the mag

Thanks guys I'm just feeling the vw love

I would love to keep her the same but I can't. I have my own vehicle wrap company and this will be a project for us, I know this won't go down well with most of you guys but the original paint work will be protected.

Exterior will be going Apple Candy red with a black hood, black and red tartan interior with some 16" rs.

 I will start a thread as soon as I get her in the workshop and look forward to you guys helping out when I'm sure I'll have some issues.

I think the colour combination sounds really good, can't wait to see it.

As sad as it'll be to wrap it, it sounds like the colour scheme should look stunning though!

Oh and welcome along

Thanks it's not been a easy decision going with the wrap but the business come first plus we don't do many classics through the door so looking forward to the challenge and if the wrap does nothing for the car I'll remove it but I'm confident we can pull it off.

See no harm in that mate, protect that paint and have a great colour combo too - with the option of going back to standard if you ever want.

Look forward to seeing the pics of this one  

Tomorrow morning can't come quick enough.

Hello and Welcome. Happy new cabby mate, she looks very tidy Bet you won't sleep tonight lol.

Andy.

Thanks Andy she needs some tlc but that's the joys eh.

School boy error  

Oops!!

You should have bought a smaller car, oh nope, hand-on….

Sorry shouldn't laugh - have you got something sorted to pick it up now?

I'm laughing now but wasn't at the time felt like a rite bell end, I will organise a transporter tomorrow absolutely gutted it's not in the workshop. 

We've all made mistakes like that, soon be sorted with it in your workshop

Went along to the local meet (Scottish vag dundee) for some inspiration and I came across this fine example, never got a chance to speak to the owner but if he's on here I would love to get a better look and maybe some knowledge of what and what not to do.

Well after last weekends disaster she is finally on her way, transporter guy just phoned to say he is on his way, can't wait to give her another cuddle
