The Golf that I have has belonged to my best friend for around 18 years and is his pride and joy. Due to medical reasons he gave up driving and the car got left outside in the elements.
I ‘borrowed’ the car from him a couple of years ago, put it through an mot and used it at the weekends. I then had to move house and had no where to store it so gave it back to him where it sat outside once more to rot!
I now have a garage, so yesterday I went with a new battery started the car and ‘borrowed’ it once more.
I have agreed with my friend that I can keep the car and restore it but I am NOT allowed to sell it.(I change my own cars very often being in the motor trade).
Ideally it needs a proper restoration but I know if I get an mot put on it I will enjoy driving it to much to tear it apart.

It depends on how much notice you need,but could do this weekend either Saturday or Sunday early evening say ? Its short notice I know. Or perhaps another day?
Just to look at each others cars ,chill, even see some cows and calvesand possibly go to local pub if you want- but am aware of drink/drive issue.
I think its possible to private message you with my address details, so let me know which day suits you and hopefully it will be possible to get some Norfolk owners here.
