Knockhill Scottish speedfair & classic festival 2011 - m

Hmm never crossed my mind before but the stand is the "mk1 golf owners club" isnt it? I might just stick a golf badge over the polo badge on the boot. Do you think they will notice?

stand ? what stand ? its just a stick stuck in the ground saying mk1s park here   somebody tripped over it last year & that was the end of our Club Stick

Oh yeah your right, I suppose its not very official then is it I shall not worry

hi

a bit of topic
my mk1 flew through its MOT today  :cheer:
With my- re-gained confidence on working on old cars. I am also seriously thinking about buying a MK2 8v gti as well to run through the winter months.
cheers

Good stuff about MOT, get a mk2 16v for the winter, then next spring put the 16v in the mk1  

16v mk1s are awesome  8)

Cant wait to get mine out!

Hi
is the 16v going na make a appearance at knockhill , might be getting my 8v as soon as next week yip 16v is very tempting but i know a lot more about the workings of the 8v & its probably cheaper to run
cheers
baz

yeah hope to come along with the 16v, but I still have a few bit and bobs to do to it but all the wind and rain is putting me off  :evil:

Not got much to do so should make it  8)

Cheers for the PM Barry. I'll definitely be going. I'll be in this. Dont shoot me



Hopefully the weather will be just as good as last year!

Love this polo. Although i think id try and make it the audi 50…parts are as rare as hens teeth im sure?

Im just about to embark on my first mk1 project however i doubt ill be ready in time for the meet so ill pencil it into the diary.

Thanks, seems to turn a lot of heads! Yeah audi 50 parts are hard to find. There was a grill badge on ebay for about £100 alone. How much do you have to do to get your mk1 ready?

Looks like I will make it as I get home on the Saturday night / Sunday morning after driving all the way home from Belgium ( not in the mk1 ) so if I am feeling fresh enough I will be there.
