yer lol so, obv im biased  :grin: maybe I have to try and mk3 vrs but im still doubtful. Its just fastish in a straight line no ?

well not just in a straight line,although you have to be crazy or brave to chuck a mk3 into a corner on standard suspension,but hey mate they really are great value for the money at the moment,go for a test drive in 1,(pretend your gonna buy) lol

 My mate is off to look at a well tidy one tomorrow, hoping he'll stop being a skin-flint and go for a mk2 but this one is mint with negligable mileage on. Will have fun chasing him around Stafford though  :grin:

It doesn't matter really what golf it is there all fun to drive. I have fun with the same mk2s 3s and 4s all the time in and around grimsby. I'm bias to the mk2 but having a golf is a fun lifestyle in my eyes. Ne one agree???

 I think he will, price is excellent, car is well tidy and since the arrival of my mk2 ten days ago he's flogged his Mondeo and is determined to pick up a Golf  :smiley: Whereabouts are you then?

im in wolves,near featherstone,when i go a drive though i usually use the a5,etc, and tell him to check for the abs light,rust around door shuts,boot,sills,bottom of the wings,also listen out for timing chain noise from the right hand side of the engine, and ermm i cant think of anything else,well i can but there minor things that can be fixed,:)
