Are red stripe interiors in mk2s rare at all?? (possibly Recaro??)
« on: 16 April 2009, 15:08 »
I took it to my local VW garage, and I mentioned that it was originally from Portsmouth, and he was like "ahh yea I remember the car, the interior's quite rare"?? I was just wondering if this is true, and how much it's worth roughly??



EDIT: just found an auction on Ebay (was an old one so you'll prob need to sign in to see it), and the guy said that the frames and foam are all stamped Recaro. It's exactly the same as my interior, does this mean it's Recaro??

Most definitely not recaro. And not particularly rare.

Not rare.

Am I right in thinking that its the standard 8v trim, i.e. that 16v got rainbow as standard (or is that only the run out models)?

Ahh fair, didn't think it'd be particularly rare, though I do really like the pattern, have upgraded to leather now. Checked the base, and, yus, it does have VW stamps rather than Recaro :( would have been a nice suprise
