Some nice pics there, its amazing how little the styling has changed externally on the cars though. Golfs - Timeless classics, they always were and always will be
I don't own this anymore - I just can't be arsed to change the picture

just a bit  :-\

ur talking atleast a couple of grand if it has mot and tax really but how cool r they  8)

to put it into perspective, in 98 i bought a bay window camper, i think it was a 72??  or that might have been the bug.  my memories crap!!  but it was 600 quid with tax and mot and the interior was fully kitted out ;) :D
