Title: Looking for my old car, H259 XYH, black 3dr 8v, flush handles
Post by: sumnide82 on 30 May 2013, 23:39
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone on here knows the wherabouts of my old mk2, H259 XYH.

I modified it about 10 years ago, it was a metallic black 3dr 8v, with about 60k miles on it then.

It had 17'' Keskin alloys, Koni coilovers, flush handles and tailgate, electric door opening buttons under the DTM mirrors.

It was nearly standard when I had it first, but it was vandalised, so I ended up spending a fortune on a full respray and loads of mods.

I sold it to a guy from Cheltenham, I think, in about 2003-2004?

According to the DVLA website, it is still taxed and on the road.

I would love to know what its up to now!

Had a lot of good times in that car.

Thanks, Roger

Reminds me of the Patek Philippe advertisement  - 'You never own a Patek, you just look after it for the next generation'.
