Thanks mattarosa, Open Air it is! Well, given the amount of rain at the Pod, I'd have to say that was a pretty good test and it passed!
Thatâs good,Â
because im sad Iâve compiled a list of open airs, Iâve added yours nowÂ

Thanks mk2; can't take the credit, this is how the car came to me!
Never really considered a Lupo before, but once settled on a water-cooled VW as my next toy I got set on having one - cool looks, fun handling, reasonable poke (on the 1.4 anyway) all for very little pence indeed!Â
This one has the full length canvas sunroof thing too (I'm sure it has an official VAG name/model), which the wife likes - just need it to stop raining for a bit now! Took it up to Santa Pod at the weekend for the Camper & Bus show, didn't stop raining long enough to open it. (Bit of sun on the Sunday but was watching the racing then!).
Open air!
I love my open air...
Does it leak yet?

Where did you find that?! You lucky thing and you probably only paid ÂŁ100 for it...
My friend had it, and for years I was saying âsell me the golfâ the reply was âIâm not selling the golfâ
after about three years of this he asked if I was still interested...
ÂŁ3000. We were sat going through all the paper work with a brew and it turned out heâd owned it since 1999. Iâm the third owner. At this point I was only bothered with one with, whether it was a âhe or sheâ. He said neither itâs just a car but before I drove off he tapped it on the roof and said âgoodbye old girlâ
and thatâs the sad story of how I came to own the g60. Itâs had all of the rear tub and new rear turrets welded too.

That'll be the supercharger? Centre bearing maybe. Or a loose hose which is throbbing as the air pulses out of the exit port. Not sure you can get the seals anymore. It was tricky finding them a few years ago when i rebuilt one.
Itâs the charger, itâs an addictive noise. It came with a twin light debadged grill, it now has a proper quad light back on.Â
A full stainless exhaust
The typical sunroof leak which was the seal.
Factory BBS in need of a refurb.Â
And itâs done 100 miles in the last ten yearsÂ

Hehe no but you did promise I could drive it at fest.Â
Dont disappoint meÂ
The very same, I donât think itâll be ready for this feat due to other plans but sssshÂ

Itâs got a very 90s alarm, no battery, no seats at the moment
and itâs makes a funny noise at 1750 rpm đ

LHD, with that ever so annoying self regulating wax stat choke assembly... but working I'd imagine if it's yours?
I'm still hunting the elusive chrome edition countryman. There's one in Austria, but they want too much. And before registering it here, I'll do a professional RHD conversion. And fit AC. All OEM extras.
Mines a factory g60 so it may not have the wax stat choke

You could say theyâre together, Iâm not 100% at the moment though. She could be at work or Danno could be in the clutches of a little old lady after fitting her a stair rail. Who know what he gets upto

Today I made a bacon sandwich with four bits, chilli sauce double cheese, two hash browns and an egg.
Brown bun clearly.
How unlike you to eat anything thatâs not a Waitrose banana...
Wait was this sandwich for breakfast?Â
No start and no OBD!

Good job you know your stuff đ
