My baby mk1 cabby.

Now I really hope this works,been working on my golf for nearly 4 years now,did all the painting myself (it's what I do for a living at an independant  Jaguar approved bodyshop,another technician replaced the valves,seals,belts,rad etc,called in a favour for a new screen and roof,new exhaust and so so many more things..Its been a love hate job,but since she was finished last year I've only taken her out twice so if any one is interested in her then just shout up..You could grab a bargain as I don't expect to get much as she's covered 188,000 miles,whicj puts most folk off,but you only have to look at her to tell she's been lovingly restored and not just been spruced up..Her name is Violet by the way..

I don't want to sell it,but I never use her, so some one may aswell enjoy her… After all the hard work I've put in I dread taking her out and something happening,like some clown scraping it…

Do it once and do it right! ok, we've identified the problem, lets not make it worse by guessing……… Identifying the sympton is not the same as understanding the cause :)
