Very nice indeed. Going to be in Cape Town at the end of February so looking forward to spotting some Mk7 GTI's out there.  :smiley:

I think you will be surprised how many are here. I was in the UK over Christmas and I did nearly 2000km of driving (from Kent to Liverpool and generally around Kent) and I did not see a single GTi which was quite surprising. The day we left SA I saw 3 on the way to the airport and 2 on the day we got back(although one of them was my new one  :smiley:

There's also a fantastic amount of old Golfs on the road in SA many of which are in amazing condition   :smiley:. Can't wait to get back over!

VWSA was making MK1 Golfs up until a few years a go so parts a readily available and cheap.

If you get a chance when you are out here try get to Port Elizabeth. The VW factory is there and they do a pretty impressive factory tour (the build right hand drive Polos) and the also have a VW museum there. It's about 400lm from Cape Town

My new Pure White GTD arrived with me today on the back of a Transporter. Ordered from Lee in Cheltenham VW. As I am in N Ireland I had it collected by a transport company, they collected it yesterday and had told me it would be over here late next week. Got a phone call 2.30 today, guy said are you home 5.00 to 6.00 tonight as we have a Golf for you!!   :grin: :grin: :grin:

It needs a wash after 400 miles on the back of a lorry but so impressed with the car. Love it..

Congratulations on getting the new car Davy. Look forward to seeing the pics  :smiley:

Out of curiosity who will be doing the detailing for you?
