This mk2 has been sat on a grannys driveway for months near my girlfriends house. Everytime i drive past it i cry! So i called in and gave her my number as she said it was her grandsons. He txt me asking if i wanted it.  :cool:
Has rust on doors, bootlid, and other places i expect. 4 flat tyres, but its Helios Blue, lowered, 17s, scorpion Exhaust (full s/s). Gotta b worth it!
