Newbie, Midlands, MkIII 16v ...
« on: 30 August 2010, 22:45 »
Hi folks, I've just bought a new daily driver / project, I wanted something fairly entertaining so having a Beetle and a Bus already another VW seemed the obvious idea, I'll probably be asking some fairly clueless questions soon as I'm not as familiar with this water-cooled malarkey  :wink:

Thanks for the welcome, meant to reply ages ago and forgot!

I'm out in the sticks, nearest town is Rugby.

Haven't done much to the 16v yet, just general servicing stuff.  The rust patches are next ...!
