hello, newbie from the south coast
« on: 21 June 2011, 18:41 »
Hi, my names Mike and I'm a Golf fan.......

Had shed loads in the past and now seek another to waste money on before the wife spunks it all on shoes.  I think I want a mk3 this time. Only had 1 mk3 in the past (Indian red j plate 3 door VR) and loved it, I fancy a 16v on bike carbs.  Now on with the search........

Welcome.... if you've had a mk3 before, go for a mk2 instead at least!  :grin:

Good luck with your search, are looking for a car already running carbs or are you looking for one you can put carbs on?
