Went out for a cycle whilst down visiting my folks and stopped to speak to a friends dad who mentions that he's selling his Golf Gti. It's a 1990 H reg big bumper job with power steering. The MOT was just up and it was running rich so he's stopped using it. After a bit of haggling I took it away for £60. £15 later for a new Air flow meter and it's running a lot better. Needs a wheel bearing and the suspensions a bit soft, oh and it's on TSW Venoms
Other than that I'm a happy bunny. It's off for an MOT next week, wish me luck

The little beasty itself...

Cheers guys. It's a bit tatty but not the worst in the world, could do with a good T-Cut. I hate polishing cars though, i prefer driving them...

I'm not to bothered aout it not being a valver, I've fond memories of road rallying in my old Mk2 8v.

Thats a bargain mate. As for it not being a valver, that's not a problem the 8v model has always been regarded as the better one.

Whats the mileage mate??

Looks good from the photos, esp for 60sheets!!

Cheers,

Cheers guys. Mileage is about 133k, it's had a new engine and box in it though. I know the guy who had it for the past 7 years or so. It's tatty but honest.
I was off watching a sprint yesterday, I feel a plan hatching...

Wish I could get the bargain of the century.

We're coming over to the UK for 3.5 weeks, and I need to hire a car for up to 3 of those.

Hiring a brand new Ka for that period will cost me over £500.

Trouble is, with only a day before we need it to go from Sussex to Cumbria, I don't fancy being able to choose a reliable car in such short time. Chances are I'd grab something which would then conk out on the motorway.

Ah well. Money's designed to be spent, apparently.
