Hi

Just bought my first Golf Gti, a 1994 Mk3 2.0 16v.

It's got a few miles on the clock and wants a bit of work but that was the idea with buying it, but will probably be on here begging for help/idea's alot lol.

Had a very varied car history

Vauxhall Corsa 1.0
Vauxhall Vectra 1.8
Vauxhall Astra GTE Convertible
Fiat Punto 1.2
Ford Escort XR3i Convertible
