i love my golfenator.

1977 mk1 3door
not many mods n stuff. myes.
i love you all, dont let the bed bugs bite you in ze goat assssss



Edit : just looked. what the HELL!
(so far) four people voted, but SOMEONE didnt put whether they had a 3 or 5 door.
this poll runs on honesty people, how on earth can we get clear results with these sort of shenaninanigans!?

[gldgti]

theres already a lot of off topic on here guys - mods delete this at your will (after its been read a bit)

my vote was floored because i have a 77 and a 79, both 4 doors, so i ticked 77, 79 and 5 door, but the 5 door option will count as only one car, when infact i have 2.

[JP-009]

My (other) pride and joy is a...

'76 5 door 'something or other' (I have no idea what it is)



I think it is a standard 1600 with 4 speed (a 32/36 Webber going on real soon)

Mods already on the car when I bought it with include:
- Mk2 steering wheel
- a really loud exhaust
- black 'GT racing' stripes on the bonnet (which add at least 15kW )
- crap 'bronze' paint on the stock wheels
- and wonky bumperbars

What can I say, a work in progress...

I added an extra point in 5 door for you gldgti, just so the poll is accurate.
If this happens to anyone else, let me know, i can edit the poll. Keen to see results on this.

I stuffed up my vote. Forgot to put in my 83.

At the moment a
76 LS , White currently having everything repaired
79 GLD X 2, One old daily beater with a list of mod's as long as my arm & the other the replacement shell. Both Diamond Metallic Silver
80 GLD, White used as a part's storage.

And my favorite
83 Alpine White GTI Campaign. All original on the outside & inside but the parts you don't see are Koni adjustables, Jamex spring's, rear disc conversion, braided lines, Mk2 master cyl. & booster & my old daily beater 1.8 engine. (20VT in the build)

Have to whore the pic again



But I definately miss the old beater. Will rebuild it one day.

I have a 1976 5 Door with a KR 16v, Leather Interior, painted Oak Green.

And a 1980 Genuine GTI 1.6 Heron Motor and early 5 speed. Very Original

And a 1976 2 Door 1.8L Carby, Yellow, nice interior, for sale if anyone wants it

Also the Scirocco 1986 GT 1.6 Carby at the moment. Also A1 Chassis.

Someone needs to sort the poll so we can have multiple cars.

The poll is multiple option, only problem arises when you have to of the same year or shape. State if you do in your posts and i will edit the poll.
