Hello all!

Hi everyone,

I'm a relapsed VW owner… had mk2 golfs and polos mostly but am about to acquire a mk1 golf cabby and am super excited to get that top down for the balmy mid-winter climate in the West Mids. Will be stalking the how-to guides and the buy and sell forum as soon as my wallet has recovered.

hi and welcome to the club.. whats youre budget? and are you looking for a running and sorted car or are you looking for a mini project?

Hi Kenneth,

I PX'd my motorbike plus 1500 notes for an '88 white cabrio GTI with 102k on the clock. It has 12months MOT and all the brakes were done recently so it will be a regular runner.

Any suggestions on good intro reads / threads (the buying guide is excellent!)? I'm like a dog with two tails, don't know where to start!

Lots of build threads on here, few people sell parts and stuff.
