The 16v ones do list for ridiculous money. Some sell for around 40 but who would pay that is beyond me. I have one I got for a fiver. Wanted to put it on the car but reckon it would be robbed. Might keep it for my retirement fund  :grin:

General muppets on eBay though listing every mk2 part under the sun as rare. A smashed up set of G60 arches (and I mean f*cked!) stands out in my mind at over £250.

Paid £10 for one in 'as new' condition and would you buy something for a Volkswagen...from someone who can't spell Volkswagen?

Well that's what's thrown me! If he had put rare then I could understand it, I would even say they were cheap, but without the word rare in it they are far too expensive! :grin:

people like this should just be shot and the people who pay it should be shot as well!

Most people can't be arsed to go anywhere else but ebay, better deals are out there with a bit more effort.
