Who has the oldest MK2 here?? As I'v read posts on here of early rare mk2 B reg motors, if that is early how rare is mine as it was bought in April '84 on a A reg???
-
i recall seeing an A reg mk2 years back
-
i had an a reg mark 2 it was march 84 and it was an orange 1.3! :grin:
-
I've had 2 mk2s some years ago and they were both A reg, but one was a left hand drive conversion! :shocked:
Neither were GTi's but 1.8 carb models. :tongue:
Not sure how early GTi's came out?
-
i seen an a reg gti it was k jet 8v and my a reg mk2 was a left hook one but on the right if you know what i mean? all the wipers were wrong.....
-
My dad bought his first mk2 on the launch night in the UK, I remeber going to the party at Humberside Motors in Selby (dealer long since gone) the car was a Gambia Red 5 door 1.3 CL, reg number A866 PAT, I wonder if it is still on the road? Very special car for me, as it kicked started my VW obsession!

on my back E reg digi the wipers ar the wrong way around too
anyone know why they changed them on some?
-
they changed around the '90 spec thing to give a bigger clear area on the drivers side. ie instead of looking through an arc of clear windscreen you look through the other side with the sweep ending in the vertical position.

My one was like that, was f**king annoying when it rained :angry: but mine was a Dreg

i have an a reg mk2 8 valve at my house, it is my next project, was importted from germany and is solid as a rock apart from it has rusted a big hole in the rear turret for some reason
-
quite a dodgy bit to go rusty though? apparently that was a common place for them to go on early models.

they changed in early 88 mid e plate, along with he removal of front quarter lights windows, the rear panel got changed (the word VOLKSWAGEN got removed, GOLF became Golf) and the wipers got put the correct way round. a whole host of other things got changed at the same time, and the 8v and 16v went in very different directions part wise as well.
