From the Type 19 workshop

Volkswagen Golf Mk1 work in the Type 19 workshop — the same cars these front seats diagrams are drawn from.

Mk2 Golf Restoration Welding work #mk2golf #mechanic #volkswagen #migwelding #carrestoration Mostly typical repair work we see on almost every Mk2 Golf we’ve worked on. Safe to say the Mk3 Golf is pretty similar too!
