Post by: Woxy on 09 March 2009, 18:52

Hi

Just bought my first Golf Gti, a 1994 Mk3 2.0 16v.

It's got a few miles on the clock and wants a bit of work but that was the idea with buying it, but will probably be on here begging for help/idea's alot lol.

Had a very varied car history

Peugot 205 1.4
Ford Escort 1.8td
Vauxhall Corsa 1.0
Vauxhall Vectra 1.8
Vauxhall Astra GTE Convertible
Fiat Punto 1.2
Ford Escort XR3i Convertible
Volkswagon Vento 2.0
Renault Laguna 1.9TD

Another Mk.3 valver, evidently a person of taste :cool: Bad luck on the old ferrous oxide, still, you appear to have things in hand. Welcome on board.
