Cheers. Its not mint, it does need work but I love it. Wheels are temporary before swapping to splits I think. Although the red wheels look better than I expected them to against the green.

Good to hear yours will be back out. What wheels are you running now. I think you sold your classics?

Still though, it looks like it's a good find. I'm such a fan of the older polos. there's another guy on here with a dark green one that you've probably seen. So nice. Aaaw splittys yeah? What ones you going for? D'you know or..?

Yeeah man so glad it's running again. It's just stiing on G60's right now but I'm hoping to get something new pretty soon. Yeeah sold the classics. Seen them the other day on a polo and they've been destroyed. Every wheel has been curbed. Not good.

What event was it Barry because I saw a few classics and an army jeep the other day and assumed there was some kind of show on...

Yeah it was a good find. Glad I bit the bullet and bought it as I doubt I'll ever find another manilla green/tan interior one (favourite color scheme ) I saw the dark green one, its a lovely car. Theres a gambia red one in Perth aswell but I've not seen it for a while

I have a set of 3 piece compomotives about as old as the polo I might put on it. I was saving them for the s1 but I hate that they are just sitting in boxes just now. They need to be used!

Theres something about 4 doors and g60's. They just look really good on them for some reason. Yeah your old classics are on a blue polo now are they not? It cant be easy keeping them off the pavement with that much poke though  8O

Im trying to shift a set of classics just now. Know anyone who wants some? They are silver and black like your old ones. 7's and 8's with worn tyres

Yeeah it looks so good mate. Aww really? That would be sweet. Yeah I know the feeling. Nothing worse than things just lying around that you really wanna use.

Yeeah it looks good on the G60's definitely but they're not what I want to be running. I'm still scouting around for something I like.

Yeah I sold the classics to an oldfriend then he sold the car on. Now it doesn't even move, it's just sat on a road in letham. Yeah I noticed you had some up for sale. I'll keep my ear to the ground for you mate.

Really hope i can make this one as i missed it last year. Had the Mk1 out today and took a couple of pics. Thought i would share one:



Hopefully catch up with you's all soon.

Cheers

Thanks Baz. Took a run up to Braemar via the spittal yesterday. Forgot how good that road is. Loved it.

Can you put me down for Glamis for the Sunday please Baz? I should be home for this one. Went on the Sunday last year and it was a good day out.

Ross

Thanks for posting the events list. Am going to try and get along to Stirling on the 15th. Maybe see you there. Are you taking the Polo? It's looking sweet by the way. Not seen one of those on the road for a long time.

Cheers

hi

was up in applecross today , think i will give my mk1 a rest for a few days , overtook a white van today & then i had slow down for about 10 miles of stone chips , well he didn't slow down & just covered me in chips   im scared to look at the front . anyway apart from the 10miles of stonechips bothways some parts of the road are just in a unbelievable state , was in applecross 3 times last year & I don't recall the roads being that bad
On a positive note , the Bar lunch is excellant
