Hello!

Hi all, I recently purchased my first MK1 Golf for me and my family to enjoy. The purchase was made due a Mk4 Golf that had rotted away around the engine (AGU) and one thats been in the family for more than 10 years so after buying it off our nephew for next to nothing we thought we need to buy a car to put the engine in :) and what better than a MK1!

I was going to go for the full resto but being realistic with myself just haven't got the time so an engine transplant is well within scope with something thats pretty much ready to drive. Found a nice condition 1.5 GL in Leicestershire from a well sound Dub nut who'd put lots of hard work into restoring her. We all loved it so the purchase was made.

Looking forward to putting in the new lump and would love to go out on some meets/events with the club. Thanks for having me…Ad.
