They are getting incredibly cheap now, but saying that as we all know they are like a bloody minefield, it can go wrong at any time lol.

I'd hate to sell mine for that kind of cash, spent about £2200 on mainly maintenance in the last 22 months of owning it.

Just had rust sorted on mine under the rear windscreen where water has sat and bubbled under the paint, ballache as rear window had come out but didn't have pay much and had some other bits and euro spec rears fitted at the same time.

Anyways, enjoy the new Golf, good price all in all :)
