Hello from Jaap and his white MK3

Hello,

I am Jaap Tuinstra, yep an other Dutchman, and I own a White MK 3, for about 4 years now. But my story starts much earlier.

In 1986 I spotted a picture of a dark bleu Midas Silver (MkII?) in a German (!) ' Auto Katalog' car yearbook(if that's what it is called in English). I instantly fell ...
