Nah!

Golf MK1 was a WIP, just needed paint.....was fitted with Clipper kit, 7x15" BBS wheels etc etc

Orion was nearly mint, trader I bought it from said it went alright but the bonnet release cable had snapped so he didn't know what engine was in it.

Montego was supposed to be free but I had to purchase it for money so I gave him a penny.
