Additional Information: this car has been unused in my garage for 30 years. Metallic green with green interior and sunroof. Original alloy wheels.

Just been unwrapped after years under bubble wrap and seems relatively rust free considering the years but obviously in need of complete mechanical overhaul. Perfect for a restoration project.

Hi Terry
I was only the other day, wondering what you had done with the car - I came across your name and number in some papers I was going through.
You may remember that I came over in my red left hand drive Mk1 to have a look. Your children had never seen one on the road !!
Unfortunately for me, you did not feel able to let it go at that time, and now is not the right time for me.
It deserves a sympathetic restoration and I hope it goes to someone who will do it justice.
All the best.
Peter

Hi Peter
Good to hear from you.
Do I remember that you came over some years ago and turned the engine over by hand?
I did the same again today. It has not moved an inch in the meantime!
Would you have any idea of its value?
Terry

Hi, are you able to take pictures please? I can send you a phone number or email address if you’re unable to upload them to the forum.

Inner and outer wings, windscreen scuttle, rear arches, back panel are all of interest.



Thanks.
