I reckon it's all going to happen in the last few hours... This similarly coloured swallowtail caused quite a stir at GTI International over the weekend apparently! ![](http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kevin.yeoman/GTI%20International%202004/007_pale_blue_mk1.jpg) ![](http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kevin.yeoman/GTI%20International%202004/008_pale_blue_mk1.jpg)

I'm a bit surprised that no-one has gone up to the seller and bought it before the end of the auction though...surely for quite a lot of people it is the ultimate Golf? There can't be many left like it?

I know! With 12 months MOT it could be worth a small fortune... Even without, it's worth LOADS for the chrome goodies on it alone! If only I had some spare cash... ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

Ah ha, not checked in here for a few days but now it all makes sense why I couldn't get this Golf, been watching it for five days, been it touch with the seller and everything! ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png) Sitting patiently waiting for the end of the auction, hoping no one else had seen it, and then a crazy bidding war last night. ![>:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/angry.png) Oh well, was going to restore it back to standard. Hope whoever got it looks after it. ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png)

There can't be many left like it? Tried that last week, he wouldn't end the auction, even for a very reasonable offer from myself. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

That's a real shame Stu ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) Mind you, you just know there's no way I'd let you keep it stock! Lowered on some wide ATS Classics at least!!

I'm gutted to be honest, our Luke found it on ebay and then got in touch and told me to keep an eye on it. I had set my limit on what I'd pay though bearing it mind it's over 200 miles away, emailed the seller and got all the info - sounded great. Was just keeping quiet and dreading anyone posting a link to it on cgti or similar. Plan was to keep it 'looking' stock at least on the outside, engine is a different matter ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) Not to worry, there's bound to be another at some point! If your interested, I *think* that red Mk1 round the corner from ours (Swinton Way?) is for sale. Remember when the guy stopped me and asked if I wanted to buy another Mk1? It's that one. No idea how much though or what it's like...
