Yeah, the plan was to keep it. I love looking at old mint mk1 GTi's and like to think one day mine might be a similar thing. I've recently been restoring an old Series classic Land Rover....too many toys in the toy box it seems. The company car is the main transport so won't get rained on!
I have always had the services done bang on time. Last year It had only done about 40 miles between the services. It's had 2 cam belts and a water pump to be sure. I think the last cam belt only did something like 470 miles lol. I keep it on a ctec battery conditioner but just as a precaution I had a new battery stuck on it 18 months ago. Old one was fine but they don't last forever do they.
I have always religiously started it every 2 weeks. Used the brakes and clutch to keep the hydraulics happy. Every month or so I take it round the block too to keep things moving. I'm quite mechanically minded like that.
Will be very sad to sell, should have done it years ago but too attached. Cars should be driven and enjoyed though and that's the bit I struggle with....must be too OCD!
