Quote from ebay advert: For sale is my 1996 Volkswagen VR6 Highline Syncro with 62,000 miles. This vehicle was owned by a non-smoker.

Just the love the detail and effort this guy has put into selling his car...

A rare car to be sure, but surely owned by someone who has no idea what they really have

No, he's described prescisely what it is - it's a Golf3 Syncro.

I think he's got some idea of the value/rarity of it - £2300 and reserve not met is asking a bit much for any old 12 year old hatchback with the wheel on the wrong side.

It will be an interesting auction to watch, to see how it goes - how much do how many people want a car that odd (and prone to rust - it is a lardy G3 rotbox)?

So what race series would it enter?

Must be the "got no clue" cup.

I hope you're not after a Rallye one day then as that fits all the above criteria !

No thanks, I tend to avoid expensive cars that contain a large number of obsolete parts that aftermarket suppliers are unlikely to pick up 

It's why I got shot of my T25 Syncro.
