I like my mk3 very much and greatly admire many other peoples mk3 but i'm struggling to figure out how they could make any real money out of the project and which mk3 variant they might choose, none are what you'd call rare or special so am suprised they didn't go for a mk2 G60/rallye or even something like a down at heal mk4 r32, don't shoot me down in flames for this because i would defend the mk3 as a proper GTi all day long but i do think there are more worthy members of the golf GTi lineage.

They've been playing about with £10000 plus motors recently this is why i'm suprised they would look at mk3's unless they have begun to lose the target audience and are going back to more affordable stuff.
