I want a GTI

[martinb]

Well i only passed my driving licence this year, the insurance on my driver is £600 and a gti is £800, but i am willing to pay that.

not suprised, that is an total bargain if you have had your licence less than a year!!!!!!!!!!! 

How did you manage that? who was that with?

Go for it mate, atlas grey is one of my favourite mk2 colours!!

Why didn't you go for this : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4650330349&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

It's black, got all the electrics and luxuries including ultra rare Air Con, but 5dr.

If I could have been allowed an old skool Mk2 by the Mrs, I would have had it for £500, but it didn't sell.

Summit dont look quite right there... the seats they look well new! and i havnt ever seen full electrics on that age of Golf perhaps it is all pretty rare stuff tho... Im not up on my specs models and years looked a good bargain.

still every time i look at a 5dr the only thing i can think is,.... its not a 3dr

[ChrisO GolfO]

You got to stick at what you want...

Because there will always be that day where you see a 3dr and you have a 5dr and you think damn shoulda got one...

Keep your eyes out for one and it will come...

I would have 3dr so I cant give people lifts as easy... Sorry I would give you a lift but I cant be bothered to move lol 

[TanK_VW]

  thats a dam good reason not to take someone. that and taking your rear seats out... sorry you have nowhere to site... damm shame.

Look at the description it does say that it has a 1991 spec interior, which obviously doesn't match a 1986 Golf.
Air con was only really available in hot countries like south africa, so it's either an imported car, or was put in later.

My old Mk2 was a 3dr Atlas Grey, it was great apart from when I needed to load it up or give lifts.
5 doors makes it easier to get people in, and also for loading the car up with the seats down.

Depends on what you need the most, do you ever put the seats down and fill the back? How often do you give people lifts?

If you want 3doors, just carry on looking, there are still plenty of Mk2's around.

Quick look on ebay turns up:
