Hi everyone,

Just joined up, I've been knocking around for a while & finally decided to do the decent thing. Great site by the way everyone, I can normally be found browsing while I'm supposed to be hard at work.

Just a few snaps of my 1992 Golf, I know its no, TVR, lotus etc and its never going to win any land speed records! LOL Anyway here it is, had it about 4 years, had it painted about a year and a half ago, standard 1.8 16v engine although its had the top end re built. Full Milltek exhaust inc manifold blah, blah, blah. You get the idea! It used to be my daily but now only comes out the garage in the sun or for vw shows lol.




Cheers for looking!smilewavey

Cool! Classic 80s car. Always wanted one when I was in my teens. Although, at the time, the insurance was prohibitive. Then I got older, the insurance became less prohibitive, almost bought a Mark 3 VR6, but realised I could afford a TVR. silly
