Re: Hairys car!

Club Competition

123,511 miles. The wheels will be all curbed, the rear view mirror turned to face the driver, all four corners scraped, doors peppered with car park dents, the tyres all scuffed from when the curb was to small to ruin your wheels, around the boot lock will be all chipped and scratched from where she has opened the boot and left the keys in, then just slammed the boot without a care in the world! The handles on the doors will have all scratches around them where she will have either left the keys in and slammed those too or just ring damage! There is a chance that the petrol cap is not the same one as when you left the car with her, the screenwash will be empty, the aerial bent where she went through a car wash with it still up and the entire car will need a respray where she tried to either clean the flies off the front with a kitchen scourer or washed it with a sponge that she dropped in a load of grit!
Best of luck!  :)

I think she lives with me now  :x

My old Jetta's took a real battering of late. Of course ONLY I drive my MK1

I'll guess 143728

Blimey, didn't expect quite so many responses so quick!! To answer a few questions…

1. Dubboy - It has been driven since I last drove it (August?!! 8O )
2. Why did I leave it with my ex? - L O N G story! :wink:
3. Walt - no danger of scrubby sponge - it hasn't been cleaned! :evil: It is looking a right mess, and I reckong at least one black bag full of rubbish in it

I'll post before (wash) and after pics when I get her back.

I know I had plenty to do on it anyway but I think fan or something has packed up as I'm told it overheats after a couple of miles! Oh well, still can't wait to get the MK1 back :wink:

Keep your guesses coming chaps :lol:

I'll piggy back on Robb's convincing "research claim" and go for:

176,124  :wink:

Hope you get it back in one piece Andy - does this mean the full blown resto "Stage 1" is imminent? Did you get all the welding gear in thend? If so you must be itching to fire it up  :D

I never said his 'research' was correct Chris! :lol:

Not got the welding gear yet, have been bidding on a few in ebay in hope of a bargain but in no rush until I get the car back - still accumulating parts though!

I do want to do full blown, bare shell resto, only limitation will be time, money and lack of garage - apart from that I'll have everything I need!!

Cheers
