And doors welded up etc 😄

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.

 

Now you come to mention it :-)

I love that car Chris had I been able to find one a couple of years back before I got LUL I would have bitten the owners hands off to own one.

My old flame OES 570 R was a 1977 1.6 5dr GLS in Metallic Blue. Fond memories of driving her on trips to the south of France and to European G Ps.

She was able to take two tents and luggage for 4 with no need for a roof rack. The impressive part was 3 of the passengers were female and you know how much luggage they take on holiday!!

Enjoy.  I anticipate no moans on this car or does that start one you get back from your hols??  

hi chris, i know this car…..and its beautiful and one of the best mk1 i've seen in awhile. good luck with her

Very nice car but I would probably be cancelling my holiday, buying my own deckchair and then plonking myself infront of it just admiring the beauty!

Remember the moaning is all show and sarcasm ( sometimes frustration   )

I think that there will be no moans with this car as it will be the bomb  Chris

Thanks everyone and I cant wait to pick it up.

I was going to fly and drive it back which is a nightmare but now thinking about hiring a trailer and going with a mate to pick it up ??

I will sort the details after my hols

Need the hols tbh but kmow what you mean.

My next 5 weekends comprise of this -

1 - drive to Normandy
2 - on hols
3 - drive home from Normandy
4 - drive to Essex and home again
5 - drive to AGM and home again

Not bad from Edinburgh      

Saw something in Worthersee and immediately thought of you. A part that is just the ticket for the final touch to any car of a VW fanatic such as yourself.

It is a mutli purpose part equally at home on a GLS or Sportline !!!

Will hand it over to you at Glamis.

Hmmm the mind boggles :-)

Graham remember to bring the Eurotrip pics to Glamis :-)

Congratulations.  I had been in touch with the owner myself as I was keen to buy it, but you beat me to it, in getting a deposit down.  I'll keep an eye out for it in Edinburgh.  Whats happening to your GX?

GX has sold to Barry from Dunfermline for him to use until his s1 GTI is on the road after restoration.

Once I get it give me a shout and I can meet u ?

Stunning, just stunning.

That's amazing, it's perfect!

Are you bringing it to the AGM? I might be inclined to lick it…
