As some of you know I got rid of the GLF saloon a while back  Bought another one recently,found by our own Mr Bickle,which initially was going to back on the road,however after much pokings and proddings its been deemed only good for breaking as its harbouring far too much rusty bits....   Then last week I happened upon this......  ;D ;D ;D A quick phone call and a train trip to derby the following friday evenin saw me drivin back to glos in torrential rain and gales.. It performed faultlesslly apart from nearly losin a wiper somewhere near solihull...... On closer inspection its very tidy,needs some work on the arches as to be expected on a 28 year old scooby,but after a service and some new brakes is provin great fun to drive! Bring on the snow! will post some more pics tomoro |
