yeah but its a left hooker, to confusing for me to drive lol

does look so nice though  

You want to buy Chudds 20V. Seen it again yesterday when paid him a visit. It's a minter - and a bargain too. If circumstances were different I'd be seriously tempted

is it a floppy though?

Pure tintop all the way - it's mint

It's a great car. I remember Chudd being a 'bit' lary on the drive out at Coombe Abbey. As we were leaving he wheel spun down the driveway to the road!!!
Great car!! 

I met up with Chudd yesterday morning, we were chatting about Coombe Abbey. He said his MK1 had about 200 bhp then, now it's about 220-230!

What happened to 'markwon?'

He was one of the original members and must have been responsible for one of the bravest, most epic resto's of a MK1 ever!  

I wonder if it's finished?

Crikey Andy I remember that thread well. You're right that was some epic work.
