bora tdi
« on: 28 February 2012, 19:42 »
Hi all I've just sold my mk3 golf and looking to buy a bora tdi so I've moved from the mk3 section to here. I know its not a mk4 golf but im wondering if there is much difference between the bora and the golf other than the looks?

If anyone knows about the bora (1.9 tdi 110 pre pd engine) can you let me know about things to look out for?

Thanks all

thank mate but I've found one from a friend of the family at £1300 and its immaculate and i think the one you know of will be out of our price range but i appreciate it anyway

That's the only thing im not sure on :undecided: that's my first job. The car feels solid and drive better than i ever could have expected so, touch wood, everything should be ok
