i've just been to look at a MK1 cabby, only a GL tho. I dont know very much about them as i'm a MK3 owner at the mo, want a new project tho. It has Karman badges on the wings, it's burgundy with a beige/cream hood. Tartan seats are a bit ripped and trim needs attention. The centre consol has 3 holes too, should there be dials in them..??....all tyres are pershed and cracked walls as if it's been sat a while...not sure about MOT cos geezer was out the office......It's a Y reg and the geezer wants £1100 for it......any thoughts..???

spawny = jammy

what u reckon i should pay for the cabby i saw today......the carpets in front were soaked, mould on sun visors, the spare wheel was rusty as hell so i guess boot leaks too, he said the old boy hasnt driven it for ages, gets it MOT'd and leaves it, not had road tax since 2005 but has got 8 months MOT. it's a 1.5 GL manual. the seats are ripped, door cards need replacing cos handles been ripped off. all tyres are perished too.....only good thing about it is 76,000 miles with history !

Having read what's wrong with it, my thought is he's having a laugh. :shocked: It's not even a GTI is it ?
