Sorry guys, i didnt mean to offend anyones car. I just really hate the look of MK2's. From the back, they don't look bad at all, but it's just that terrible grill. I think it makes the car look very old and quite ugly.

Is there anyway to change the head lights on a MK2 to look like an MK3?

I don't own a car at the moment, but i'm looking for an MK3. Got about £850 to spend. Any idea's?

BTW, its a first car, so 1.4 maximum.

yeah you could with a lot of grafting i suppose. why you would wanna make your design icon of a mk2 look like a thames barge is beyond me tho

opinions are fine mate but for a second post thats a bit ott!!

try and get as late a model mk3 as u can as ive heard the early ones are a bit prone to rust n leccy probs. should be able to get something  for 850 tho.

on the other hand u could get a mint (ish) mk2 if u searched around for that money..........

Apprecaite the advice mate, but I'm strongly against the look of the mk2. My ideal car would be something like a Peugeot 206, or an Golf mk4 if i could afford it, so that should give you the kind of picture i'm aiming for. Although an MK3 may not be as stylish as a 206, it's certainly not bad for the money.

I've been buying the auto trader for 2 months now trying to get a MK3, but i just can't find one i like for my money. I found one the other day, it was perfect, but then after me looking at it, and getting all excited, he phones me and tells me he's not selling anymore?

Appart from the Auto trader + Ebay, wheres the best place to look?

leg pull alert.........

was playing lol thats wat the ....... mean

try the for sale section at the bottom of the forum?

also local papers stuff like that

sometimes garages get things in ass part exchange would be worth ringing vw dealer near u and just asking the question

dont bother buying autotrader just look on the website

hey that top one looks like my car!......alot!

In my opinion, they look terrible. So square and ugly. The front grill looks like a peice of scrap with a few round headlight slapped on.

again, only my opinion

Ok fair enough point.
I'd have a mk1/2 if they had more modern security features. Most importantly of all an airbag. TBH the MK3 is 'square' and is less attractive than a mk1 or 2.

I'm sure you know that German cars are very big, square, good quality and very Germanic. Even the new ones ! That's the appeal I think. They're very unique.

French cars are cheap, tinny, disposable, common, never trust the electrics !, Very typically French in sleek style (to the point of being a ladies car!), and to he honest I wouldn't give them a a second look.

Only my opinion mind !
