if you want 3dr RHD  make it.

converting LHD golf to RHD is easy all the bits are avalible off the shelf or donor car all the holes are there,  all you have to do is  drop the subframe swap the steering rack and pas pipes, whip the dash out remove the pedal box,  put bungs in holes and reseal floor,  whip the fusebox and wireing looms and heater boxes and ducting out.  and then fit parts from donor car to the other side. 

the only more intrestig bit is stock RHD syncro exhausts are sh!t so you'll need to make one
all the VW's have gone bar 1.

Given that there were only 650 of them built in RHD and a significant number have already been scrapped I think you've missed your chance at a cheap Syncro, chap.

Even on mobile.de they're starting at +800 Euros, although for 1600 Euros you could net yourself a 2.9 VR6 Syncro Golf3...... but you need not to be so narrow-minded about sitting on the 'wrong' side of the car.
