Sweet, the combination of silver paint and 9 spokes is one of my favourite Mk1 Golf combinations - second favourite to black, of course! Hence my 2nd GTI is a silver one....

Thanks for the nice comments guys, its good to be back
Still have a few things to sort:
rear anti rol bar brackets ( one has snapped )
needs a new O/S front wishbone
tracking needs doing and a new door lock
Still it runs well and is saving me a lot of fuel compared to whats parked behind it :wink:
