nice 1 sparks hope its a good 1 and he buys it,only up the road from me aswell.

 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,:)

 Think that's where Stu is looking at the Golf tomorrow.  He's pretty much up on his mechanics so he'll be fine. Currently helping him retore a 72 bay camper van. Cut the roof off it a couple of weeks back,never cringed so much in my life. He's confident the new roof will go on fine though.

 If he buys it will be heading down Wolves way to pick it up.

this 1,the n/s wing is sound,the offside is matt black and has 2 small dents though,was worth asking anyway :)

I've never heard of them but can't argue that I got quated 50 for non vw wings and 100 for genuine. And being a student not got that sort of money to just chuck about. Does that place do bumper of do you know where to get bumpers cheap from (not ebay though)
