Post by: trw999 on 06 September 2007, 19:58: Mk1s were so cool when they first came out. No one knew what they were. I had one in 1978 in Germany and the look on the Mercedes drivers faces as you came up behind them and gave them a flash on the autobahn was priceless.

My red Mk1 four speed did me well for 10 years and over 250k kilometres, never let me down.
