    You know you drive a Mk1 when after 6 months of sitting in the shed with a stuffed battery and a blown headgasket, it still starts after a jump start and is able to drive up and down the street, and hold idle (just)!

    You know you drive a Mk1 ('78 GLS) when...

    ...you have to roll down the windows even in winter because the heat blowing through the engine makes the car so bloody hot...

    ...you hate your soft suspension because although you beat most cars through corners it feels like you’re going to roll...

    ...you love your soft suspension because you can go over speed bumps twice as fast as anyone else...

    ...the whole steering wheel moves when you put the clutch in...

    ...you have to clear the fuel line because it gets blocked at least once a week...

    ...you have to keep on reasurring your passengers that the loose wires aren’t (that) dangerous...

    ...you get even more angry because the horn isn’t loud enough and the lights not bright enough to flash or beep someone...

    ...you love telling people about how your car has a starter button...

    ...you white car is actually more rust coloured than white...

    ...you keep people entertained at parties with stories of what's gone wrong with it - and thats one of the reasons you love it...

    That is pure GOLD!!!!

    All of my mk1's have done this. Probably due to the very heavy performance clutch.
