    Talking Looking for an old friend

    About 4 years ago my mate had a cream coloured mk1 that was great and served well in year 12. It was a fun car.
    Mechanically, I know that one of the wheel bearings was replaced.

    Anyway, I'm curious what happened to it. Thought I might try and find it here and see how it's going.

    Surely the wheel bearing clue will be the give away

    He did say only 1 wheel bearing was replaced. That should limit the search because we all know 99% of MK1's have had more than 1 wheel bearing replaced in the last 35 years.
