I bought myself last summer a MK4 1100 Special in the nice Vermillion Red. These days I‘vecstarted the restoration. It needs a new rear subframe, some bew bushes and oil seals and much more. As I‘m new here, I don‘t know how to post photos…

Yup, about the red one in the back. Mine also used to have the black vinyl roof, but it has been removed.
