Hi
Seeing as I'm going to be asking lots of questions I thought I best introduce myself properly! ;)

I'm Michael and I live on the Notts / Derby boarder, I had my first beetle when I was 17 and had them ever since (28 now!).

Heres a few photos of my last few dubs...

56 CKD Oval, full history, 99K miles, never welded, etc... had to sell due to house sale...which then fell through! :shock: :cry:

I loved the 71 but it had to go due to having a baby girl just before Christmas and didn't want to taker her in a car that low! :| ;)

So I bought a camper instead!

Its a 71 Westy, since I've had it I've fitted a recplacement 1600 with qp exhaust, replaced the New Mini front seats with orignal ones, new buddy seat and currently on the look out for a pair of overriders for the rear. Also just bought a full set of deluxe trim which I think I'm going to fit!
 
Hello mate and welcome nice sick bugs there and of course a quality bay :mrgreen: 8)
 
Nice rides 8) - love that 71 beetle!

I almost got a Octavia VRS in 2003 but ended up getting an MG ZS 180 instead....I thought I'd get better long-term service from MG... how wrong was I? :D

welcome to the site!
