I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you'll probably be waiting a long, long time.

The sad fact is; it's only an 8v GTI engine, which is barely a GTI engine at all.  Mk2 golfs with the 8v engine are still sought after as they have the classic looks and are, despite everything, quite nippy and fun to drive.  I think the only way this mk3 would possibly appreciate is if it was a meticulously maintained VR6 or 16v GTI.  And even then, expect to wait a good number of years.

Good luck with sale though  :smiley:
