Re: Hello!
Love the red leather on the Harvard. Hope it's still there in yours! Get some Gliptone Liquid leather rubbed in to it. You will be amazed at the good it can do to the look and feel of the leather. It's not even expensive..

Re: Anyone Suggest Good Child Seats for a mk1?
Btw any other would be buyers, I assumed that isofix would mess up fitting the seat in to other cars. So I was thinking the mk1 would need a different seat from my wifes car. Turns out that at least on some you can use the iso fix base or NOT use it. Therefore we leave the base in my wifes car and u...

sounds like a long time to me! However, was it a freezing cold day and did you have the heater cranked to full?

Re: Vandal pikey scum
I feel your pain. I've had mine scratched by jealous ideots. What really pees me off is they don't need to be jealous. They could just go and buy one for a few hundred quid. That's all mine is worth and I didn't pay much for it in the first place. IGNORANT!

Re: Car buyers and road tax.
it's much more complicated than when I was a lad! Even until a few years ago the tax could just transfer with the car.
