Title: My new MK2 GTI
Post by: chargersjoe on 28 July 2012, 00:27

Hi guys,

Following my previous posts looking for cars near aberdeen I was PM'ed by a fellow member offering his car for sale.

After viwing the car last weekend I put a deposit on it to secure it and picked it up tonight!

Its a 1992 runoff 8v and I cant describe how chuffed I am with it :D

Here are a few pics I was sent when viewing the car, more will follow when I get the camera out :D

Very Nice - But it wont stay in the section long as one of the mods will move it to dub rides....

Looks like it could do with some new headlights & Spots, with a nice black grille badge...

Other than that looks a nice example...

Proof will be in the pudding as they say...

Welcome to Mk2 Ownership...

Looks really tidy.   :cool: Nice colour too.

Doubt you'll need new headlights unless they're damaged.  Just need a clean inside.  :wink:

If the seals have gone around the glass you can clean them as much as you like they will still look milky and will need replacing...

These cars are now hitting 20+ year old and some stuff "Just" needs replacing....

I'm not touting for business - it's just that I say what I see...

I've got a massive soft spot for Mk2's, wish I'd owned one in my younger years rather than the Fords I had :rolleyes:

Looks very clean :afro:
