I'm thinking £2k, After all my hard work slaving away i deserve a TREAT!
Had my heart set on that because it had two of my dreams in one :'(
A Mk1 and ITB's! I even started planning the work i was going to do on it :D

Just seen this little bad boy =
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mk1-golf-gti-1-8-16v-conversion-yamaha-fzr-1000-carb-/160428251364?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item255a44d8e4

Just wondering what you all thought?
Would be a tidy little project to tune up and fix all its little niggly problems! and change the wheels!
And at the end of it i even get a Mk1 :D
saw this and thought of you http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/mk1-golf-1-8-16v-zx9r-bike-carbs-unfinished-project-/320522318977?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item4aa09e7481

That Purple one gets picked up next week, so fingers crossed the guy has an unfortunate chain of events and cant afford it anymore!! (As long as he doesn't get hurt)  :evil:
