oooh i dont like bein kept in suspenders rich!

Title: Re: Guess what I bought today...........
Post by: richandhazel on 05 October 2005, 09:49
The Polo, cabrio and mk1 Golf were opportune i.e word of mouth.

This one I went looking for as Hazel has had enough of the Audi. She finds it too big and impractical, wanted something smaller. Scoured ebay and eventually I found what I was looking for in Autotrader.

Camera still charging, shouldn't be long now.

Nice one rich, looks like another bargain, small bumpers too, cool. :cool:

Post by: golfpro on 05 October 2005, 11:21
nice one rich! another classic bargain brought to you by richandhazel!

grow up gib!  :grin:
Title: Re: Guess what I bought today...........
Post by: richandhazel on 05 October 2005, 12:10
Yeah I'm well pleased. There are a few scratches to attend to, door trim needs refitting (just found that inside the car), brakes were very scary.......something seriously not right with them, gear linkage needs adjustment and speedo doesn't work. Few other bits and bobs, but with 3 months tax, very little rust and a very, very pleased Hazel.............can't really go wrong. She's always wanted to go back to a Golf (passed her test in her/my mk1 Golf) and preferably 5 door for the kids :cool:
Title: Re: Guess what I bought today...........
Post by: gibby on 05 October 2005, 12:12
All you need to do now Rich is find Hazel a splitty and you'll have a very happy lady on your hands.  :grin:

Tell her I said hello by the way.  :smiley:

dont want to hijack.. but... hmmm... funny gibby!  :laugh:
Title: Re: Guess what I bought today...........
Post by: richandhazel on 05 October 2005, 12:23
Its an Audi 80 1.8S, petrol. I've got a queue of people that want it though (well 3 anyway lol) as although not the tidiest its rust free and mechanically solid...........and my lodger was at the front of the queue and I told him he could have it :undecided:

Yeah Gibby, she's quitened down about the splitty now. At least she will have a good reliable car that is now faster and more practical than the Audi. I'll probably get nagged about a splitty once the novelty has worn off or at the next show lol I'll tell her hi  :wink:

Perhaps I'll put a bit of black insulation tape down the middle of the windscreen and kill 2 birds with one stone :tongue:
Title: Re: Guess what I bought today...........
Post by: golfpro on 05 October 2005, 13:12
either that or speak to tvr joe, im sure he will be able to manage to make split screen front windows fit onto the new golf....somehow!

then all you need is to change the back seats for a bed and roberts your fathers brother!

or just stick to thi insulation tape!?!
