2300? sounds good for an R plate vr6 with leather and climate i think....  :smiley:

Is it 3 or 5 door?

its a 5 door martin.. got it now , and ive already fitted the induction kit , i had lying around  :wink:

and WOW!! if you havent driven one of these before, sell hyour kids and house and go get one, it is different to drive to every other vw dub ive had, and ive had most of them.
  im so impressed, it can be a silent cruising machine or unleash the loud pedal and everyone looks.

so much fun..

£2300 is bloody cheap!!

£2300 Is a great price!

I just got mine, on an M plate though, for £1800, and it sounds like yours is in better condition.  Mine's got a few little issues that I need to get sorted out (Drivers side door lock, passenger side electric window, nothing critical).

I know I paid a fair bit for mine(higher range of what they seem to go for), but I got it off a mate of mine so I'm familiar with the car and it's history over the last couple of years, and I know he's only just had new discs/pads all round, and there's nothing about to fall off.   :wink:

All that lurvely torque everywhere...  They're just so driveable. :evil:
