Yeah, i got it from a friend whos dad built it. Its auto because he only had one arm and kept getting done by police for driving manuals. I have a damaged knees so auto makes it easier for me too :) He has since passed on, and my intention is to get it up to scratch and take it to shows etc :) So any advise or help will be gratefully received.

This car looks very familiar - I think I've seen it around the shows back when I cared enough to part with my money and go to them.

Was owned by a guy called David Bubb, who lived in Sawbridgeworth. He put a lot of time, money and effort into it :) It was also featured in Performance Volkswagen issue 12/01.
