'G' reg 81k miles fully documented history file been stored for 10 years, but not without its faults although minor ones, not really as problem as literally everything is going to be stripped from it

& swapped over onto the new shell, so the Jinxy Mobile will live again, its a lot of work I know, but worth it, even though I have the Porsche I could never be without the Mk1, hope to get more involved on the MK1 scene now, so expect more news
