Title: mk1 Cab sportline
Post by: VWaddict73 on 30 March 2008, 15:55: How much am I likely to pay for a good honest mk1 cab sportline? Good history and original condition a must.

Post by: VWaddict73 on 13 April 2008, 20:13: Got one, paid Ã‚£3500 for it though.... Still it will be a keeper and is as near to mint as I think I will find! 90k miles, with FSH (plus every mot and tax disc from new!!) Body and interior both excellent condition and it drives brilliantly! Only downside is the alloys - although they are immaculate with new tyres, I'd prefer the BBS RA's with black centres as I believe came as standard on these cars. If anyone has a set and wishes to swap........

Only thing I have done since pics is change to a German style number plates. Are there any other things I should consider whilst still retaining the originality??

Anyway some pics attached.

Post by: VWaddict73 on 06 May 2008, 21:33: Well believe it or not after only having it just over 6 weeksI am likely going to be selling the Sportline!!! To help fund a 911 C4S. Can't justify having a RR Sport, a Audi A3 3.2, A Defender, A Mk1 Sportline and 2 Mk2 GTi's.... So the A3 and the Sportline will go to make way for the Porka.

Since the pics earlier in the thread I have replaced the number plates with German style ones, sourced a original Wolfsburg 3 spoke steering wheel nd a newly refurbished set of original BBS RA's with black centres (plus 4 new tyres). Note the wheels and steering wheel not itted yet though.

the car drives faultlessly and as stated before its only got 93k miles with fsh, most previous tax discs, 11 months mot and tax. No damage at all - as close as mint as I would dare say!!

With both sets of alloys I would be looking for Ã‚£4500 as thats what it owes me but I may be prepared to take an offer...
