Another golf!!!!!, still got me mk2gti 8v, and me mk4 gti, and have just paid a stupid abount of loose cahnge for another mk2!!!, will get some pics up next week after ive got it home, but ive got a 87 mk2 3dr 8v, white, big bumpers,private no plate, body mint, interior bit mouldy but will clean up ok, the only problem being the engine was blown, and the owner could not find a decent unit to replace it with so he bought a lhd 16v gti to transplant, the engine has been fitted and all bits in (connected to 8v gearbox) just the wiring to sort as looms different and 16v loom lhd, its been stood since the engine was put in approx 12 mths, oh yeah also needs rear light clusters but just so happens got a set spare in the boot of me other mk2 ;D so whatch this space....................
