Maybe put a post in the for sale section to see if anyone that hasn't read this thread is interested?

Congrats on retirement, at least you have a couple* of projects to keep you busy!
-
I bet that Skoda will be popular! I had one as my first car and would l love another so will deffo get a ticket!
-
After owning an Octavia VRS estate for 5 years when it came to replace it I ended up with another one! The black one was on 213k and needed too much doing for me to justify spending on it... Plus I wanted a newer car!
-
I fancy popping up there one day as it's only about an hour away. Looks good though!

I would have been tempted to leave it outside after that!

When I got my Beetle back together I had to change the dynamo 4 times! The one it came with was faulty so I fitted a spare that I had. That didn't work either so got one off a mate which also didn't bloody work! Was fed up by this point so bought an alternator conversion kit! I had to take off the bracket the decklid hinges bolt to to get the fan housing high enough to get the fan out but by the 4th time I was quite good at it! The fan nut I used an impact gun to undo.

Good to see progress on this bug. Seen a lot of Beetles with wiring that looks like this, you will probably find a lot of redundant wiring in there!
-
Now I'm going to have to watch it!
-
I tried to watch it but fell asleep halfway through! Don't think I will worry about catching up with what I missed
-
I saw that one at the weekend! It's a South African import. It's got a 2.6 5 cylinder engine! 😮
-
Good luck with the sale! What are you going to get to replace it?
-
Looks ace on Ronal Turbos!
-
I saw pics of that one online recently! Shame it's leaving you but I reckon it's going to cost a ton of money to restore! I would love an early 911 but that will probably never happen
-
Glad to see your back! Those wheels look much better in silver. Let me know if you need any bits for it as I have a few spares in my garage!

I think he did 4 or 5 videos on it too!
-
That Beetle belonged to a mate of mine until a few months ago, before that it had been laid up in a garage in Plymouth for a few years! Will be good to see it in use
-
Love it! I want to see it turning left to go up towards Tavistock hospital as it's a nice hairpin bend!

Love it! I wasn't expecting that! -
I broke my glasses frame not long after buying them so I found a second hand pair the same on eBay and swapped the lenses over. Cost me about 30 quid instead of about 200

I have a Bosch battery in the camper that is only about 18 months old and it's not holding a charge any more. It's supposedly got a 4 year guarantee but I bought it off eBay so let's see how successful getting it replaced will be..
