FC in your reg would usually mean it was registered in Oxfordshire not Warwickshire. Maybe it was registered before it reached the dealer?

Lol yep there's no fly on you yomp lol correct the car was a personal import the owner lived in Oxfordshire ;) and as you said register before it got to the dealer when he took it to get numbers plate and mudflaps fitted……. I still have the receipt for it some where lol;) il double check to see if it is Listers;)

Lol! That answers my question and yes I'm bit of a nerd when it comes to number plate locations:$I had an '83 rocco from Listers in Coventry many years ago. I can picture their logo but don't have an actual picture sorry.

Nice motor BTW!

Your seat fabric looks mint!!  :cool:

I take it the mesh is like a back up to the air filter for extra protection?

Right here she is, had her ten years, so man and boy lol.  :)Im the fourth owner, this is my second lhasa green MK1 completely standard, apart for the BSS Splits, still got the P-slots tho, wouldnt part with them :wink: and a VW motorsport gearknob. She has mostly VAGSH but was serviced at GTI engineering back in the mid eighties (just thinkin i was about 7 at the time lol :D) as you can see the rear arch covers are missing as i took them off to inspect for rust and at the same time brought new VAG arch cover items at the same time!!!!

The car was manufactured on the 29th of september 1983 and was first registered on the 1st november 1983 and has an EW chassis number

These pics were taken just before xmas as im hoping to take her to a few vw show in 2008.

the BBS RS split rims i brought from graham vanstone many years ago they came off his 20v mk1 (dont know if any one can remember that car)

Here she is on the front cover of VWM many moons ago!!

To be honest i thinking of doing a few sensible upgrades to her like lower strut brace, bigger throttle body, weighted shift rod,etc you know bolt on stuff nothing crazy!!! but half of me thinks that that could be a slippery slop, and as i said shes completely standard apart from the BBS even the suspension is standard and i still have a paper filter in her, would like some people views on that

enjoy

 :D
