Hey Dude nice S1 - Mica blue/magnolia. Would love to have seen it arrive did you have any boards poking out the roof??!!

[Psychobert]

Not me, but mine has been seen there several times. Folks used to live in Port Isaac..

Aaaaah, to be back there now.. I use to work in Anns Cottage, of course I had the obligatory VW Beetle then though.

Yup, me too. Navy blue 1303S IIRC. One of the faster fairly standard Bugs around. Still one of the most fun cars I ever drive. Slow, noisey, steered like a tank, brakes like an oil tanker.

Happy days..

so true... I eventually put disc brakes on mine to get the stopping distances down to something reasonable.. I also got a 1303S out of a scrapyard for £20 and put the engine and transmission into my 1200 Bug (plus I lowered it all round at the time)..

Used to be a chap whop ran a pub in Pendogget about 10 miles or so from Polzeath with a bright pink Chimera.

I think his b/f had a yellow one.

Didn't go to that pub much..
