i would bid around 300 of your notes. bearing in mind your going to need to spend 100 on tax in a few weeks time.

i would also budget for some banded steelies and a grinder for the springs  :laugh:

if you are seriously bidding on it then you're mental to bring it to people's attention beforehand.

Fooking definately, if I thought I could cope with another vehcle I'd be having a bid.
Those 5 cylinders engines sound gorgeous, almost as nice as a vr. Had a go in a GL5 passat WAY back which had the 2.2 audi version of that engine fitted, it was actually pretty rapid.

Love the way the seller called himself a VW enthusiast and said it had a V5 engine. Looks like an inline 5-pot to me...  :nerd:

I was gonna say that too.

My parents had one of these when I was younger. huge thing with no PAS. Had that exact blue interior too.
Lowered on phat old skool rims, definately worth doing.
