often referred to as the Coco Chanel model.. i don't know how the rumour started that coco chanel had anything to do with it though. Just a coincidence of initials i reckon.

go on to www.vwgolfmk1.org and its all explained there and it will also tell you what to look for with regards problems,
DO NOT be afraid to walk away, if you get an iffy mk1 it can cost 000s to put right,
go by the buyers guide on there and you wont go wrong  :wink:
oh and btw if you do get one youll be joining the coolest mark of all  :wink:

The roof will have the CC logo on it if it's original. If it's a tatty roof and you need to replace it then you're unlikely to find one with the CC logo.
