My new MK1 Golf GLS

[hessiethecrab]

Hi all,

I’ve just bought my first car; a beautiful blue 77 mk1 Golf GLS. Woohoo!

Many thanks to hiho for driving me to Horsham so that we could return to Melbourne in a triumphant Golf convoy.

Can anyone help me to find a set of front discs for this car? Mine have worn too thin for a RWC.

(maybe I should stick this post in the MK1 section?)

Cheers

Ah, the blue golf from Horsham. Good to see someone scooped it. Welcome and post some pics!

welcome to the forum, congrats on the buy.

how was the car, not many of us were too game to drive all that way to see it!

welcome along...one more for the melbourne massive

Yeah it was a bit of a mission. But it ran great and the CV joints seemed a bit of a non-issue, so $650 later I was the proud owner.

Needs a little work for a RWC – tie-rods, new rear struts, front tyres, front discs plus some small stuff. We’ve got most of it covered expect the discs.

Can’t wait do be legally on the road, it’s completely awesome!

I looked into buying that very seriously a while ago, at least I think it's the same one.
What'd you pick it up for?
