Got one ;) Mk4 1.8 t Gti (Now with pic)
« on: 14 May 2012, 22:19 »
Tonight I have bought a 1999 1.8 T GTi 3dr in silver, totally standard car same owner 10 years FSH and serviced every 10k without fail, the car has covered 150k but runs like a swiss watch, long MOT and TAX and even half a tank of petrol  :wink: stacks of history and last serviced 3k miles ago, very clean just a few marks externally, and alloys are abit tatty/pitted, will have a cambelt change before the end of the month...£870 sound ok?? Everything seems in order, it was driven back from Netherlands to Essex yesterday (It is a UK car and nothing has been changed)

I would of thought you could have a cambelt replaced for much less then that, is that from your local VAG dealer?
