Rite guys the subject says it all!
Currently have a 1.8t AGU on a W plate 113000 miles fsh!
Recently been thinking about selling and getting a mk2 GTI :huh:
Wat do u guys think?
And at wat kinda money do u think i could get for the mk4?
-
Depends on the reasons for selling TBH :smiley:
Mk2 will need love :smiley:
-
Indeed I had a mk2 GTI 16v "project" that I planned on doing up but simple didn't have the time.I work 11hrs a day SET (ever less) 6 days a week.So i only get sunday off then i've normally got other things to do etc.If you've got more time on your hands then go for it.
-
Well the plan is either pick up a cheap mk2 nd do it as a project (only work 7 nd half hours a day 5 days a week) :drool:
Or pay tidy money for a good one!
Always wanted a mk2 and fancy a change from the mk4 but wana try stayin with vw!

mate i went down the same route..
spend as much money as you can in the first place TRUST ME!..
To bring a sligthly ruff car up to standards is alot harder as you'll end up replacing everyihing and spending £1000's... let someone else do the work for you like one of the members off here :grin:

i use to be a great lover for the old mk1's and 2's but since owner a mk4 i would not go back to old as a daily, its nice to get in a car with all the mod cons and not break down every 5 mins!! comfy ride, heating, power when needed is a win for me!
im looking at another mk1 aswell as my mk4 for the summers as they are great cars just not as a daily

You probably could use one everyday with if maintainng it very well (Wax oil etc) But when you get one..get it fixed up/look sweet.You really gonna wanna use a classic like that everyday?
