They do seem a good little car.
There's so much body roll it must be dangerous so GTi shocks and springs are on the cards, once I've got the GTi big bumpers on. I'll get some pics up later on today
But the engine does seem bomb proof as said, I've got a duff thrust bearing so will replace the clutch as soon as I can, and it could do with an oil change but apart from that it loves being driven. Mileage is 115,000 so not too bad but it still seems happy to go
Bit reluctant to start in the cold (still does every time, just makes a fuss lol) but I think that's a MK2 Golf thing as I can remember my older brothers being exactly the same, and that was about 14 years ago!!
I thought there would be loads of 1.3s on here, but I suppose there aren't many about. 7 replies and no pics, so like I said I'll put some up later for a bit of encouragement
