Title: Just Bought a 1999T Golf Gti 1.8 Turbo
Post by: Zayd on 08 October 2006, 02:25: I've joined the VW club and made a proud purchase of one of these amazing vehicles. OK on to my ride;

69,000 miles * Metalic Mica Grey * Full Black Leather Interior * Ind. Controlled Heated Front Seats * Climatronic Air Con * Trip Computer *16in BBS VW Alloy Wheels* Rain Sensor Wipers * Winter Pack including headlight wash * 6CD Multi Changer * Three Rear Headrests * Cobra Alarm*

Now that I think of it I am beginning to believe the original owner didn't skimp on the options list.

Would anyone like to guess the price I paid.

Post by: Zayd on 08 October 2006, 23:49: Well it looks like I may have paid a little over then. I bought the car for 5K. I was very impressed with the build quality with these cars as I also have a BMW 530i Sport, Year 2000. In comparison of quality there was not much in it.

I'll post some pics once I can find somewhere to host them.

Post by: Zayd on 09 October 2006, 03:44: The car is in immaculate condition and seems to have been looked after by the last owner who had it for four years.Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â He was very sad to see it go and kept changing his mind from selling to keeping it.Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â I didn't think too much of the extra badging he put on it either especially when he said, "It's not boy racer is it?".Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â Doesn't look too naff I suppose, but anyway here are the pics;

Post by: Neaty on 15 October 2006, 19:36: I have just never driven or been in a mark 4 with such a high interior spec as that, hence never seen the wallnut before
