All,

Off to look at a 2001 Golf 2.0 GTI.

Can anyone give me the spec for one and things I should check when viewing?

Many thanks

Yeah get a 1.8T instead or you will regret it....I know I did.

Make sure the waterpump has been done at the same time as the cambelt as is a very common failure due to crappy plastic propeller. Replacement should have a metal propeller.
