didnt read the specs as im lazzy but going by the colours alone lol


ide go with the top 1 first and then the last.

Aye I concur with the Smiffer...

1/ Best colour and uber-low miles.. but you may get beaten up by the Buffers if you changed it/put serious miles on it

2/ Intermittant history, plus lots of "Niggles" But a seeminly good car and easy knock down points (C/locking -probably a pipe off, Sunroof- Probably the "Usual" rebuild or replce with passat)

3/ Wow all the Big jobs done (Rear bushes a pita ask Yeti)... priced a bit high for a car who has effectivly a "blown" engine though.

Plus in teh current VR climate, I'd go 4k max on any of them I'm afraid...

Glad I have a valver now though!

Good finds, I have gone a bit quiet on this as I my money has been put into Decorating for now and sorting out the Golf so it can be sold. A workshop solution is being sought which would ease the burden of outside my house so maybe this might be back on this year...
However, I like the two highlighted by you Corrado guys, they are however more than I want to pay right now.
I am also concerned about the MPG of these cars, I don't want to spend all my money on Petrol...

Geoff, stay off the loud pedal and they're pretty economic, above 30 is quite posible.

I got 20mpg on the way to work this morning! Top Gear last night inspired me to try it.

2nd > 4th changes FTW.

I am driving a Ford Escort Diesel around the north of Scotland right now and it seems to be doing 55 MPG. As the roads are so twisty I am not sure I could go much faster however it feels like crap.
Let us see what the new year brings, I want to do it but am not going to do it just yet until I know how the financial crisis will effect my life.

I usualy average around 25mpg in my vr but as Jon says if you're careful you can get 32.

but whats the point of that i just love that VR roar when you hit 3.5 k

also..... just to add my my 2 pence worth. all those cars look good. I love midnight blue its such a nice colour but I'd agree all slightly overpriced.

i would go number 3 coz its all done and classic all round, and with a mint beige interior
it be SWEEEEEET

thats number 3 of the first selection
of the 2nd selection i love that 16v turbo EVEN in red!
i have salavated over this in the mags

Yup out of them all go for the 3rd on in the first batch... BIG jobs done...

The Black Airbaged one is J-Bob's old car! Really nice one that! And was hid daily too!

The Red Turbot is Crooksey's car, still can't believe he's selling it!

Yep 3rd car in 1st ad....
Hey Cali you gettin bored with mk4?

Not bored, it has never lived up to the MK2, it is very expensive to run and still has a boost leak. I was getting bored and fancied a VR6 Rado, however I have had a few ideas bout the MK4 and hopefully will fix them.

And he's scared of the Rado-power!

Even Dan ran away from it!

At present, I don't think I would use all that lovely power. The missus has admitted to getting car sick. However she likes the rush of riding on the motorbike....

How big a job is the head gasket and exhaust on a VR6?

Look at this bad boy.

i've got a car 4 cali


TOMS OAKY GTI!!!!! yeah!!!

The only problem is the number of doors....
Anyhow, the 20vT is coming on strong now so I am going to stick with her for a while.

So telling you there's a Mint, Black VR with only 101k on the clock, FullVSH, and rare 2yr only Isometric-cloth recaros for 2.5K pretty pointless then?

damn you. Is there pictures?
