The Mk1 Golf... How in the world did I fit that in there?

[littlegldgti]

Haha, I thought I'd start a thread for people to tell their stories about fitting large and unthinkable things in their Mk1s.

I'll start by saying the other day my Dad 'n' I managed to fit:

- 1 double bass
- 1 cello
- Drum equiptment
- Large toolbox
- 2 grown males
- 2 bags of clothes
- a chair
- a music stand
and......
- a small esky

All of this in my dads little Golf Mk1 GLD.

When i first got my first Mk1 it came with

2 sets of rims, 1 set had tyres, 2 spare front seats, various trim bits, headlights, grills, ect ect.

It all fit in boot with seats down.. nothen was on front seat

[littlegldgti]

Wow thats pretty impressive. Nice set of rims?

I used to play in a band in the mid-late nineties and all three of us had mk1 golfs, we used to call them tardises, our record for one car was a whole drumkit, a full PA system with stands, a guitar amp, three guitars in cases and other assorted bags, leads and bit & pieces.

A BMX across the back seat, 2 grown males and bags of clothes for each. That's about the maximum i ever crammed into mine.

Mollins and I once did:

Aftermarket front swaybar setup, all 4 doors from a 4 door mk1, large toolbox, mk1 rear hatch, set of fixed quarter glass and 2 big blokes (the both of us) in his old mk1 4 door.

I have carried many and much in my various mk1's, too much to remember really.

my motto is "If it cant fit in the golf, I shouldn't have it".

only problem is that you can fit so darned much in 1

Fitting a hatch in seems like a feat in itself.

[gldgti]

easy - just put it in sidways
