Nice looking MK1 you have there and a real bargain too, clean her up and keep her original, like my 78 bronze mk1, i was goin to restore but my girlfriend uses it and thinks the marks and pitting of the chrome "adds character" and i have to agree, thats why mine retains all war wounds and original made in holland supergrip tyres.... love it, i bought mine off ebay after having too many beers purchased for £35 and had to drive from preston lancashire to filey in yorkshire and did think of selling on, but since meeting my now future wife i have no intention of selling and intend on keeping her and my silver MK2 for the rest of my days!! with luck my future kids will feel the same..... |
