When the job came up of driving Nothelle’s superb Golf Mk2 GTI to the UK from Wolfsburg; ready to be displayed under the VW Classic Parts banner at GTI International, I jumped at the chance! It would make a pleasant change to normal duties (eating biscuits, overseeing the warehouse team, making sure the building doesn’t fall … Continued
We have been invited back to Brands Hatch this year by monthly German car meet, Prept. After the success of last years Unite42nite we were hoping to get to do this all again, and now we can!
