Wow

My first car was a mk1 golf, same colour and age with mk2 gti wheels and big lip spoiler.

that brings back memories.

Pity it was only a 1.1.

Cheers

Cool

Looking good Gaz, should look even better when lowered Jon, I bet the jack got colour coded when it was left under the car during the painting process
It looks like Gaz will be finished way ahead of me, unfortunately mine has come to a temporary finance induced standstill maintenance on the scoob has just unexpectedly cost the best part of a grand
