Anyone know as Im sure this figure is very much pulled out of the sky, I know at lease 15 people with a 3 door! and about the same with a 5 door!

Nice colour but I dont think the figure is at all right  :sad:

I think that figure is way off the mark, infact i would go as far to say that oak green isnt actually a rare colour but is more of a desirable colour

There are rarer colours out there which get overlooked

Thats exactly what I was thinking (Not meaning to offend anyone)

Ive seen so many oak greens, and Id agree with you there are definately more rarer colours out there, but like you said its desirable and looks nice on a mk2  :cool:

The Oak Green isn't rare IMO, just a nice colour for the Mk2. And, agreed, there are rarer colours out there. One point I DO make to my fellow Mk2 owning friends, is, Oak Green is only available on GTi models, unlike most others!!!!!  :cool:

They made a lot more than 500, still a nice colour however.

Overpriced, crappy nick, f**ked brakes and no MOT or tax.

Oak green isn't rare - just a bit more desirable. I'm so bored of people trying to palm off old stuff as 'rare'. I remember some guy trying to sell me electric windows a few years back, wanted £200 for the set - because they were rare. I settled with £30 off the bay thanks.

This is rare

Whilst a nice colour, over time this will become less "rare" as more desirable colours are likely to be restored!
