Out & About
With the Soft Top finished, it was time to enjoy it as a daily, fairweather driver and hit as many of the shows as I could 😁
This was a small show in Leeds - Aug 2005
Edition 38 - Sept 2005
My Mk1 tin top is in the picture below, in front of the soft top.
Well Lane Turbo Centre - VW rolling road shootout - Oct 2005
VW Mania Belgium - Aug 2006
Got a flat before I even reached the show. Some BMW car dumped the contents of its trailer in front of me, and I ran over a massive plank of wood, which punctured the front passenger tire. Luckily, we found a garage with a Dunlop 195/40r16 in, and they were happy to stretch it over the wheel, so we got off and back on the road quickly without much hassle.
The show was busy, with plenty of V-dubs 😍
Elsecar Heritage Centre - April 2007
Love this yearly show. It is just down the road in Barnsley, and loads of people from the Yorkshire WV scene turn up.
A62 Just after Marsden - Sept 2007
