What do i buy...Driver/gti

[mk2_singh]

drivers are cheaper and in better nick for the same price as a gti. Meaning you can get a mint driver for the same you would get a dog of a gti.

slam a gti lump into the driver 1day job straight swap in a 1.6 driver. Cheap insurance as its a driver and GTI performance under cover.

Til you crash, the insurance company void the policy cos the car's been modified - then you're well and truly fuc&ed

isnt there quite abit of work when replacing a carb engine for a injection engine? im sure theres far more in it then simply swapping them round,  

[mk2_singh]

u remove the injection system and remove the TB and replace it with a weber carb! Know you have a 8v Carb powered GTI. This also gives you more va va voom

Hi,
 I've recently bought a 1.3L MK2 and am hankering after the perfomance of a GTi now.......
How much should a mint Mk2 Gti be?  How much would I be looking at if I had to replace the engine in one?

I have just discovered the For Sale boards. Now I can see roughly what to pay

What should I look out for when looking at local motors?
