I was hoping I could get some help with a wee problem with Lola, my 1975 Commer Wanderer.The battery died a few weeks ago so just replaced it with a new one today. She was slow to start as usual but got her going, though there was an unusual whirring noise from the engine. Took her for a drive...

quote: Lots done but so much more still to do. My advice to your BF would be to buy the absolute best condition Beetle he can find. Beetles aren't selling so well these days as everybody wants a van. So there are good cars at good prices out there. If I was looking for a Beetle just now I'd...

I've spent the last few days beautifying Lola's interior - slightly set-back by getting a blow-out yesterday . . .I was thanking my lucky stars she only has a top speed of 53 mph! So I now need to purchase yet another new tyre - Oh well! She's still rough around the edges as you can see...

I love those seats! I'd thought about poking aroundthe breakers but it helps now knowing what to look for. Perfect - thank you!! Her name was Lola . . .;)

Yeah, after I made that comment I had a closer look at your website and saw that Suzie has been sold but Charlie looks fantastic! Good luck with the refurb on Sandie - you must have some operation down there in Enniskillen and will definitely bring Lola down for a run some time . . and a wee...
