Hello All

first post  from not so sunny Staffordshire , well last weekend after many years waiting for the right time ",if there ever the right time"

i took the plunge and travelled 176 miles to purchase my first VW Golf Clipper mk 1 1987

one word Wow ….

so after a lovely day cruising back from county Durham yes with roof down all the way  along the A1 & M1 on her first time out in 5 years loads on waves from the

people who clearly have good taste !!  however one lad on a roundabout driving yes a golf mk5 hanging out the drivers window beeping his horn and thumbs up

scared the mrs to death lol

so the main task now is get her serviced and ready for the winter as this is my main car for everyday  living a dream…
