So after a 800 k trip we decided on a stop on the way home from viisiting my mate in a hospital after his sidecar crash ,
The stop was at a small place in germany called nurburg (i don't know if any one knows where it is) but there is a ring around it :laugh:
so thrash on and me and the Mrs did a cheaky lap :laugh: in the Mk2 golf :smiley:
we did a vid but it aint too good and there is some funny shot's of the Mrs shi*e scared face LOL
Was mad and the golf was great :laugh: :laugh:
