Good and bad news I guess :lipsrsealed:
Currently a parts advisor at JCB but ive recently passed all the exams ive sat regarding a possible carreer change!
and They have offered me the apprenticeship as a JCB field technician/engineer :cool: which im chuffed to bits about as it will suit me better financially in the future and its something id much rather be doing, 'im not a bird to be caged'
How ever this means i will have to drastic wage drop for the first few years but this doesnt bother me as I know when im full qualified i will be miles better off!
So the golf might have to be broke... im just testing at the water currently as I might be able to run it.

thanks Nino :smiley:, Like I said this was just a cast out to see if anyone would be interested... Quite shocked at the quick responses regarding parts!
I need to sit down and work out living costs etc on my apprentice wage
I was thinking about what you suggested this morning, selling how it stands. but Im not sure if id get the same totall in price though!?
as obviously this sort of car is only going to appeal to a small minority I would Of thought and then that small minority would probably start from scratch and do it all themselves?

Personally Just think of the effort that has gone into this car, I know I have only had my mk4 a few months and I have already spent well over a grand sorting ht little bits out here and there. She is coming along nicely and apart from my 17055 error or whatever it is shes running like a dream.
Maybe you could keep her by compromising on other stuff, I know if you car was mine to see it go would just kill me.
Best of luck pal.

agreed this is a qaulity bit of kit you have and if you stripped it down, cleaned and sold seperate you'd make more on it...or just take off the extras, revert back to normal and sell it as a second hand as well?
-
from looking how tidy it is. it would be such a shame to sell up.. ive got a idea rent a cheap garage. or if you have space... keep it for a few years till your wage becomes better, buy a 1.0 polo, corsa some 200 quid banger then do bits to the golf and bring it back out once you can afford too!
-
Would be a shame to break it mate. Its a lovely motor! :cool:
However... If you do I shotgun the coilovers :laugh:
