Is the MK2 gti a classic?
« on: 17 November 2012, 21:05 »
Hi guys,

Wee all know the mk1's legendary status and how it's become such a classic over recent years. What about the mk2? The gti which people say is the best!
Do you think its reached classic status yet? Surely a car that you can pick up for £500 cant be called a 'classic' as such?

Yes, or course it is, even based on the age of the vehicle alone.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

So picking up a Mk1 Project for £499 will mean its not a classic  :whistle:

Is this a Ford driver on here for a wind up ?

Of course the Mk2 is a classic, as is the Mk1.
