I've got an R Reg 8v.

I dont think its a proper GTI. 10secs+ to 60. top at 125. Just for info i believe the new 94bph Ford KA does 0-60 quicker.... :'(

The golf is like a waterbed round corners. rough sounding engine.expensive insurance for bugger all extra performance.  ???

Nice car, just TOO DAMN SLOWwwzzzz.

I've been as busy as an HJ  moderator editing every single post that i dont like.

Busy, bluddy busy due to bird making us buy a new house!.

Anyway mate, the Golf is probably up for sale again due to cash flow, so expect a new sales post soon.

I'm thinking more like ?4500 for a 97/R 8v minter with AC. 67k miles.  Not sure tho. any suggestions?

I do need to change for costs sake, but i'm now thinking i'm getting a little bored and fancy something a bit faster and newer - hence one of the new diesel things.

MK3 golfs are ok but getting a little aged in looks now so it might have to be a Mk4 and goodbye mk3 :'(

Pimpster I wouldnt put it for sale on here after the glowing recomendations you just listed above!  Bugger all performance, Ford Ka goes quicker, like a waterbed round the corners, getting old and looks its age, engine sounds rough, expensive insurance,
ROLL UP, ROLL UP! FORM AN ORDERLY QUEUE ONLY?4,500 OF YOUR ENGLISH POUNDS!!
Youre not a salesman by any chance are you Pimpster??   ;D

Got a few things going on at mo to commit to a full sale, but will update over the next few weeks.

Never used EBAY b4. worried i might a) get stung b) get no offers c) pay too much to EBAY or d) get wind up votes who have no intention of buying/

answers on a postcard....
