Hi, firstly can anyone identify this steering wheel?


Also had a few problems with my golf (1.3) fixed a few minor oil leaks and drives 10 times better but still a bit rich on fuel I think and I can have my foot on the accelerator at the same place for 200 yards and it will start going faster quickly then normal, been told this is the carb, is this true? if so is fleabay the best place to get one?

Thankyou very much guys.

yeah sounds like its fuel related. but going by the cars interior. it looks way to modern to have a carb. is it a mk3 golf 1.4?

Thanks, been trying to figure it out for a while now!
I'm undecided think it looks quite nice, more modern than the mk2 interior looks like modern stereos will go better with it!

hey I didn't realise it was mk2 golf. I just noticed the mirrors lol. if you want a more modern looking dash then why did you not just buy a mk3 to begin with?

I love the mk2 exterior and interior but my dream is to have the retro look outside with all the new looking and modern tech inside.. I can dream hey
