Im a new member in the North East

Hi, this is Martyn, finally got the car I loved as an 18 year old back in September, its a MK1 b in ice blue pearl T bar with leather which appears to be a rare colour ?? 99k miles and probs done around 5k in the last 10 years, its a great looking car with mostly original panels etc and garaged most of its life as it is now in my double, MOT in 4 weeks time so its gonna be interesting, ive got a small amount of welding to do but its out of sight so no paintwork issues and cambelt needed asap so if anyone can suggest someone local at a fair price it could come in handy and also need to either replace or remove brake shields.

Welcome to the forums! :)

I've adjusted your image links so that they are URL's, as the embedding wasn't working. :+:

Very nice looking car, looks to be in really good condition :cool:

That's a beauty and very original looking.

cheers, after delving deeper into the service history ive discovered the last cambelt change was at 57k in 1994 - shock horror!!!!

Ive been in touch with Paul Woods at Woodsport who is gonna do it for £80 v.soon and a bonus is he is only 16 miles from me.

Congratulations, thats a great looking car !!

You cant go wrong with Paul ...he's a top bloke with a wealth of knowledge.
