Title: Hello all
Post by: guzzvaliant on 12 February 2006, 20:00

hi everyone, have just bought a 1989, tornado red, mk2 8 valve as a second car runaround.  Unfortunately for the wife and kids its turned me into a complete GTI bore!! and I haven't even bothered to drive my 4 year old passat since !!  It's only supposed to be a stand in until I can find a decent mk1 convertible or a Vr6 corrado, but I fear I am now hooked on it's looks (classic) and the way it makes me feal like a kid again.  I am already drooling over the pictures of other owners cars, and thinking what I can do to mine.
I have got a couple of questions that hopefully anyone out there could help with,
1) Anybody got any P slot alloys centre covers for sale?
2)would a 1989 model have been converted to unleaded?
3)Was half leather standard or added on
Looking forward to hearing from any or all of you soon,

Arrow.  :cool:

all the mk2s run on unleaded fine.
P-Slot covers are more likely to turn up on E-gay to be honest.
Half leathers are generally an option unless you had something like an G60, or a Rallye.  :smiley:
