If you cant fix a Mk3 then give up driving and wash dishes like a woman while real men drive the cars.

Right, after the problems and money and third degree lectures iv heard from ma parents and my older brother :cry:. Iv parked the car up ...... now im driving my fathers spare car :cry:. Which hopefully wont stress me the way the golf has :cry:.

How much will i make if i strip it to its bal*s and sell the parts :cry:. It passed mot around a month ago, or i could get rid as a whole. im an honest lad who dosent want to get cursed by someone who buys the car thinking its running spot on. I bought it in march 2011 when i was 18 and i been driving it since. Its hard for me to say this but i think i will have to part from my car :cry:. Otherwise its going to be parked up in my garden for another 10 months or so :cry:.

My main plan of buying it was to keep it for a couple of years :cry:, but it looks like the trip abroad for a few months has cost me more than i imagined, i came back to my car thinking it would be alright, but nop :cry:. I dont have no more money and time to throw on it :cry:.

Appreciate if you lads can help give me a price range for breaking ?

Cheers

What was the original problem guys? I can't make it out through the tears...

Itteh.. you need to get a grip...focus on the problem and remember.. a golf is for life not just summer romance, listen to the people offering help/guidance and advice because they DO know what they are talking about... follow the path back to mk3 happiness....
I agree, the amount of advice I have been given has been invaluable

got a couple off AGG engines here; both around 100k; I was going to strip them and weigh them in; £30 to you if you wanna collect one? And in answer to your original question I can break a standard 8v Golf GTI for around 700/800

I love the fact he hasn't replied. Probably feels like a tit. :grin:

"Mum, Dad. Some guys on the forum are saying it's not a waste of money and I should take their advice and fix it. Can you tell them off for me?"

Ease up on him guys, he's not as mechanically minded as some of you guys and has been messed about by the sounds of things, BUT ITTEH, put a new bloody battery on the dam thing! Stop throwing money at stuff you don't need mate and listen to the advice.
