Always loved old air cooled and mk3 golfs!

Once i went to my first All Types (Think it was 2000), i knew i had to get a mk3.

So i got a mk3 1.8 driver
Then;
Mk2 Polo 1.4
Lupo 16V
Lupo GTI
Mk3 VR6
B4 Passat
And now the daily GTI along side the VR

My skeleton in the closet was 2, 94 plate Kia Pride LX, one with a Nissan March Super Turbo Conversion. Paid £10 for it as it was on the way to the scrappy as the subframe had stress cracks appearing in it, so reshelled the engine into the second better condition one.

I've only had 2 VW's and that's since I've been interested in cars really. Before that I just wanted what I thought was a nice girly car lol, that's how I ended up with a Pug 206 Embarassed wanted to sell it as soon as I passed my test but didn't have the time to really, and since it was cheap to run and I was only using it on the weekends to get to Jay's and work and didn't have to see it all week while I was at uni I just made do.

Then I killed it Laughing and got the car I'd wanted for months, a Lupo

So yeah, I guess my influence is probably Jay lol and I've only been interested in VW's and cars in general I suppose since going to my first show a few years ago really.

My list goes...

Lupo 1.4S
Polo 6n2 GTi
