    Hi Paul your Old fasty reg XYM 600G is for sale I went to view it on Sunday but unfortunately the pictures he sent of it in the week were not what i went to see, it had been raised back to standard ride height and there were a few issues with some recent welding which was a real shame.
    The body mid section by the battery tray is now welded to the floor pan and its sporting a hole in floor pan and the inner wings had some heavy filler in.
    He was asking £5250 which I thought was a bit high apart from that it still seemed in great condition.
    Any info/history on the car would be grand.
    It now has a type 4 inspection cover and Beetle trim instead of type 3
    Was this how it was ?


    cheers mott

    Good evening Paul, thank you for your comprehensive response. I went to view it today, absolutely lovely car. Took it for a spin. Have never drove a type 3 before and loved every minute! However, i was reluctant to part with my cash. Not sure why really, think i need to shop around and get a good idea of what's out there. Think I've made a few mistakes with cars in the past. It was in good condition, but was starting to look a little tired. He was asking for 4000, which i felt was a good price. Just didn't want to have to start spending anymore straight away.

    Anyway, thanks again Paul for your info. Much appreciated.

    Cheers

    Paul

    Hi Paul, Good evening.

    i'm hopefully going to view what used to be your old Fastback (XYM 600G) this weekend. Although i've had a few VW's over the last 12 years, i still regard myself pretty new to the VW scene. Apparently, so i've been led to believe, there is a lot of history with regards to this car. What can you tell me about it? do you have anything you could email? Was it in a magazine approx 10 years ago? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    In a recent UltraVW mag, you upgraded your Stereo to a Clarion unit in a New Beetle.
    I've recently done the same thing in a 2003 ('02) plate. But I think it's not wired correctly. (suspecting its draining the battery) Did you have to alter any wiring to match the radio to the car?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi there Paul
    One of your sales persons called me today about advertising in your VW ultra mag and i'm up for it, but that is not why i'm messaging you.
    At VW action I ran my Notchback on the saturday and done an 11.9 and wondered if this was good for entry into the 11 sec club on the VW Action web site. Also i spoke to Jolly Jim who came over to take take a look at my car I don't know if you see it there it's called The Nosback and is Bright Yellow.
    Anyway I didn't know who else to Message as I guess I should ask Brian but don't know how to reach him.

    Hello Sir, hope alls well! Its nearing engine install time and i think i`d better be sensible about it and put a later gearbox in. Do you have any advice on which year, cc or code that would best suit the 1600 912 motor? Also staying on the sensible one, i reckon i should run the engine up out of the car to check alls well before surgery comenses. Do you have or know anyone in the Kent/Essex area with the facilities for me to do so?
    Keep up the good work, Bish.

    Ps will the engine bolt up to a 1302/3 box? A member on here has a run up frame for sale which uses 1302/3 bell housing. £30 for cash.
