Yeah 170bhp meant to be a standard 174bhp but they're old now.

But with a induction kit and ss exhaust with decat it will sound like a animal with 300bhp  :evil:

I bought one with a rebuilt engine and nice body mods for a donor. But I don't want to break my gti.

How much you want to spend? It's just sitting in my garage.

£1200

Has big spec and new yoko paradas carbon fibre simota induction kit.

But a £2800 receipt for the rebuild only 4-6 thousand miles ago.

What a rebuilt motor that cost £2800 4000 miles ago? And is only done 82,000 miles.


To be honest if you bought it you would sell your 8v because the vr is lovely lol
