?700,  ! Quality Gaz, cheaper than a mk4 rebuild ! Interesting that you prefer to drive it more than the mk4, just goes to show that when a cars good, it's good, no matter how old they are  ;D

Hopefully see you at GTi festival when you give it some down that 1/4 mile  ;D

Probably coming down with the missus too, was thinking of bringing my little lad down who's 4 1/2 (well, get him into the veedubs early that's what I say !) and prob bring daughter down who's nearly 14 (well, it's never too late ! lol), anyone know if it's ok for kids down there, don't want them getting too bored !
