Hi and welcome to the forum.
I take it you'll be looking for a mk2 golf as you've posted in the mk2 specific section???
If so that's a pretty sound choice to dip your toe into the world of H2O
Seems to be a lot of people crossing over in both directions these days, quite a few of the guys on this forum have crossed over to the world of air in recent years, myself included

You'll get a warm welcome from plenty of members if you make a post in the new members section.
