Do you find the builds more enjoyable than owning and driving the thing? It's not uncommon ...

All that work to let someone else enjoy it! What's going to be the price if you don't mind me asking?

I know I sound rude and stalkerish but on the MOT history it's red? And was it a barn find? Since the Mot was done in 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2016.


Lovely car by the way, it transports me back to when I had a 1.9 GTI!

The guy even said he has jobs to do. I would imagine one of those is sorting out admin like a colour change.

There are some strange internet warriors.

Congrats on a fantastic build. I think I would be tempted to enjoy it for a while but I guess a freshly restored car is more saleable.

I wasn't being a keyboard warrior...........I was asking if it was a barn find.
