Title: new mk2 yeah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: redgolf on 26 November 2010, 13:18

after needing a new engine i decided just buy a car instead and stumbled across a little gem (so far)
its exactly the same as the last = blue 5 door 1.8 8v 4+e box but with adjustable coilovers and 13" bbs replica wheels
the only bad bit is the interior a very careless smoker has somehow burnt the door cards the seat the carpet and melted a tiny bit of the dash lol

but its pretty rapid and goes round corners like its on rails

ill try and get some pics up tomorrow

nice dude :)

That doesn't look like a standard switch, might be like an aftermarket volume button or something?...

Post by: lemski on 27 November 2010, 19:07

Yeh freaks is abit harsh to my ears. Us more door owners are equal to u 3 door owners.
Equal rights for more door owners, its the 21st century. Too many 5door golfs have been left because of there 3door brothers.

Looks a nice car.  :cool:

Is that not the dashboard light dimmer switch.

Title: Re: new mk2 yeah !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: redgolf on 27 November 2010, 21:01

cheers wayne

no its not a dimmer, as far as im aware it doesnt do anything apart from annoy me because i dont know what it does

but i reckon a previous owner had electric windows or sunroof fitted and it went t*ts up so put it back to manual
thats my theory anyway
