Mk1 Caddy

Hello Guys,

I'm a newbie from Brighton on the South Coast.

I recently purchased myself a 1989 Mk1 Caddy (shall post photos tomorrow), and looking to make friends within the VW family.

Heard this is the best place to join for VW Owners! ;)Oh, and I thought it would be rude not to become a paid member! :)How is everyone?

Hi Jay

Welcome!

Be good if you can make it to the planned gathering on the 5th April!

If in the meantime you want to show off your new toy feel free to pop over to portslade for a cuppa!
Having come from an aircooled background Im keen to learn more and share knowledge on these little water pumpers!
What engine you running?

Hello Mikey,

I certainly plan to come along on 5th April, I only live 10 minutes away in Patcham.

I'll let you know when to get the kettle ready, would be great to have a peek at your cars. I've got a lot of passion for VW's, but lacking in knowledge. This will certainly be a learning curve!

It's a 1.6 Diesel, but I do have plans to possibly stick something a little more fun in there at some point :)

Jay!

Welcome, always good to see new members sign up. As others have said get some pics up when you get the chance. I've always had a soft spot for caddy's so looking forward to seeing it.
