After trying to find a MK4 for so long, this pops along and tempts me back into a MK2.  :evil:

The eyebrow would have to to straight away though.

That eyebrow is / could be a Kamei grill spoiler and is very retro.

One thing though. I could be being a tool. But I cannot see a side repeater...  :huh:

From the advert:

Quote
good bits,

nearly mint body work.
fast road cam,
green stuff induction kit,
421 manifold and full magnex system,
pielli p slot alloys(getting rare now),
lowered 60mm alround with brand new springs,
new brakes all round,
brand new windscreen with green tint at top,
cross hair headlights,
the car has recently been diamond brighted this is a 200 pound extra when you buy a car new, will protect the paint forever.
overall looks amazing and gets lots off attention at shows.

there is a few bad bits as most old cars like this do.

small rust bubble on boot and bottom off the door but has been treated,
the air and fuel mixture needs setting up properly wont cost much to have done i just havnt got the time,
and the gear stick is a little slack, the fixing kit is £15 off ebay but i just havnt got the time.
it will prob cost you pennies to get the car mint.
it has 10months mot and 4 months tax.

So does it have repeaters - cannot see them lol.

Is that MOT failure territory?

Oh god what am I doing. The missus is going mad.

Hopefully viewing it on Sat. Not too sure about the fuel/air mixture problem though. And I've heard the gear repair kit is a mare.

Awkward but not a mare, the worst bit of the rod change is the ball on the bottom of the gear stick to stop it going into reverse

I thought you were after a mk4 - for comfort etc?! Do you know that deep down you want a mk2? I say keep the mk3 - its the best of both worlds.

Looks like a nice car. The P slots are ok, but BBS will really make it look mouth watering.

Early mk2's had GTI badges instead of side indicators, maybe that is what is fitted or the reason for it having an MOT.
The side badges are cool, i think i have a set somewhere.......
P slots dont look good with big bumpers, I prefer small bumpers and love P slots but thats me.
So long as its not rusty and its what you want go for it!  :cool:

Being a digi it could be a temp sender or ecu problem.

It is a 1990 so should have side indicators

I don't like it. Too much black, VR splitter looks gash, and P slots don't belong on a big bumper car. Buy a GTD and tune it. Faster, cheaper to insure and amazing on fuel/veg oil.
