hello and welcome

that looks to me like Royal Blue, looks too dark to be helios blue. Check the paint code as if its Royal Blue it should be LA5U

p.s, nice looking car  :smiley:

how are you finding the golf compared to the pugs? i used to have a mint 205 gti and loved it.


it handles just as well if not better but dont know if it handles better than a 309, awsome handling cars. i do still love the pugs, not so much the newer ones. think the golf has a lot more character to it and theres so much more you can do to one to make it different from the rest you see, where as in the pug world its very hard to do anything with out being criticised for anything and everything you do like not having a pugsport on your car. :laugh:

i even love the retro dash in the golf. everyone i know think its ugly but i think its great.

plus i think the vw owners are alot more friendly  :wink: not saying pug owners arnt just a few can be a bit chavy.


thanks for the welcome guys :)

So what 309 did you have? Not a Goodwood by any chance?

Tasty MK2 you've got there, looks spot on i'd say.
