toe in the water on this one:
firstly...I'm in Wells, Somerset (not far from j18 m4 or j22/23 m5)
MK2 vw golf driver 1.6 manual in black, a 5dr
1989 on an F plate (last of the small bumpers?)
Mot and tax end of june
recent tyres all round, exhaust and brakes
very very original....all original panels, paint and plastics, factory tilt n slide sunroof
don't think its ever been welded
NO little patches of bogrot, no stonechips all over the bonnet
NO silly suspension, ill fitting wheels, horrific exhausts or masses of sound system...not even a k and n!
Bad points:
few.......gearbox is whiney but still changes gear in that snickety golf fashion and with 1 finger....its just old age...ive changed the oil, what came out looked ancient
speedo currently not hooked up/working...according to previous owner its a new cable but not attached....ive not had the car long so ive not bothered...mileage is 115k so bargain on that being 120 since the cable broke in august
Its 23 yrs old so there are a few carpark mark and a touched in scratch on the psf wing......car looks fab upto about 5 paces n then you notice its few small bits n bobs......but still very presentable n buffs up well
I bought it from a fastidious lady owner who had owned it 10yrs but lost her licence through too many points who cried when I drove it away, it replaced a breadvan polo but the golf just seems "sensible"......I'm after silly! lol
so.....I'm askin 500 quid firm
....you turn up with less or bid me bad...i'l just keep it....or a swap for an 80' s polo saloon, coupe or bready (NOT genesis unless its a tatty GT) or possibly 80's retro J tin (civic GL, etc etc)
any swaps MUST have similar or more tax n mot....no more projects.......fire your retro swaps at me folks....as long as they are upto a 50 mile a day round trip (which the golfs been doing with ease).....i also like marina's but nobodys perfect
