Hi all!
« on: 16 July 2006, 20:05 »
Bing Bong! Hi everyone, im Morb, from Kings Lynn. I used to own this...


..but that got wrecked....and now ive just bought this!



love it! my first gti!, got it for a song too, though had lots of cleaning to do and it needs a bit of work, but not much.
i dare say i can learn a lot from you guys....

anyway, its a 1.6, 1981. Im guessing 8 valve (no, im not a mechanic!). What performance should i expect? its quite quick now, but its idling at 500rpm, so should i expect much more after the tune up and BIG service on Friday?

..anyway..

hello.  :wink:

Hey them whitewalls looked the mutts! (they were a rubber trim over the tyre, cost about £60 i think.!).
I wouldnt use them again though as they wear your tyre walls out rapidly. :wink:
