0 miles! BRAND NEW mk1 golf, fresh from the factory anyone?

[SuSpEcT-GTII]

Check this out . . . My girlfriends Dad is South African and he just got back from visiting some relatives out there. Upon his return he thought I would be interested to hear that they still manufacture and sell the original mk1 golf out there! They call it the CitiGolf!
I was well surprised when I looked it up! Did anyone else know this? Anyway here's a link to the site...

Just out of curiosity how much do they sell for in real money??

[SuSpEcT-GTII]

Not sure mate, but I'll ask him next time I see him. He did say that its real bog standard though. Cheap as chips! Cool though aint it!?I've a feeling he said they were only about 6k or somethin. I think the prices may be on the website somewhere? You'll need to find a currency conversion thingy

So you could actually buy one of these, import it and sell it on flea-bay  as a mk1 one with factory miles and you wouldn`t be lyin
