New Member - 2897

[Rufus01]

Hi Guys I'm a new member I have owned my MK1 since 2009. It's been in storage for about 5 years and decided now is the time to get her out and put a few miles on her. Look forward to talking to you all soon.

Hello and to the club and forum, that's a nice long ownership you've had. My own car was also off the road for 5 yrs up until 3 years ago.

Hello and welcome 👋. I'm sure you will enjoy getting back out in the car after so long of not using it.

Welcome to joining our club Tim.

Would it be possible to know your car build number please so that I can link your forum name to your car for the build list.

Hope you find our club forum of great help.


Cheers

Clayton

Hi Clayton sorry for the delay it's been a busy week, so after a week of tinkering, new brakes, new hell flex hoses, service, cam belt kit, engine bay spruce, wiper motor fault, alternator, and replacing charge air pump the car has passed MOT with flying colours. Still lots of little jobs to do but happy now and it goes as well as I remember. The build number is 2897.

I have a few queries I'll post as I go along regards Tim.

[Clayton]

Thanks for sharing the build number Tim and nice to discover 2897 again. I do know this car from a previous owner who became a good friend. She is looking very nice and bet he would be pleased to know how well 2897 is today. Am guessing you perhaps purchased from Seth?.

Would it be possible to know the exact date you purchased her please Tim (Day/month/2009) so I can add to the history.

[Rufus01]

I have tried many times to contact Seth and send some pictures , let him know I still own it etc. I have sent emails to the old email address I have but never managed to contact him. Tried to find him on FB etc but no luck would be nice to contact him again.
Purchase date was 07,11,2009
Regards Tim

Thanks for the info Tim and have added your purchase date to the build list database. Have messaged Seth , not head back at the moment but will
let you know when I do.
