More to the point. Use that £1000 for a 16v GTi, its the next best thing after a VR6.

Seen a very clean 8v near by it's on the bay so waiting to see if it reaches reserve or otherwise I'll be PMing to try and arrange a haggle. It's at £1100 but not reached reserve, done 85000, had some trick bits done suspension, exhaust. Reckon it's worth £1,500 buy it now? Still looking but just wanna make sure I'm not gonna end up with a motor i can't change anything on. Got brother in law whose a mechanic so if i need a helping point he'd help me out.

If you just want a nice mk3 then 8v is fine but if you want quick go 16v, bare in mind the 8v is only 115bhp and the mk3s are relatively heavy

I've got a c2 vts at the moment but gonna let the missus have that so I can have some dub fun. Just wanna make sure i get the right one, don't want to buy a lemon. Making sure I get a good one because I want to keep it for awhile. I'd ideally want to learn how to do stuff to this car, mechanically-wise.
