Well I've been deciding wether to buy a G60 for the misses to burn about in. The problem I have is do I need another VW on the drive? I've got to go to Germany to picker her up and with added expenses for flights, fuel, hotel & channel tunnel it will add at least £500 on to it.
What does a tidy G60 go for these days?
Oh yeah she has 160,000KM or about 80,000miles on her but she has received a full rebuild apprently.
Here is a couple of piccys and a description.

Yeah Gaz soon as I saw her I thought this one shouldn't get away!

if the rest of it is as clean as those couple of pics, i would say £4-5k.

Then what I might get for her isn't bad Vaughn. She is tidy but needs a bit more work done to her.
Whats interesting is the charger from a RS2 methinks its been ported aswell.
Hows yours running mate getting use to the left hook yet?

That looks like a tidy engine bay there jay, have you got any more pics of the G60 ? Not sure it would make a good run around though. :laugh: I'd say it's worth about what Vaughn has said if the rest of it is as tidy and as straight as that engine bay. :cool:

The RS2 isn't supercharged, the bloke is talking about a level of porting done by the yermans (similar to jabba's stage 3/4 port & flows or darrens full blend) to the supercharger. It does look nice but unless you really fancy the holiday i'd just get one from this country, there are plenty about :cool:

If you do get it though, stick some naff steelies on it, coz we all know women can't drive and those rm's will be battered in no time :laugh:

Vaughn nothing but less than perfect in my book if it needs more time so be it other wise you won't be satisfied until it looks and sits right, but a cracking base neither the less!

I do Gibby But I'm confused about interiors, this one doesn't have electrics being a 1990 so worried its a conversion to G60 rather than a stock G60? Just don’t know enough about them really but you just can't beat a super charged ride!

LOL don’t ask what she did to my 18”’s already!
RS2 proberly right a aftermarket port job as the G-laders are the same on the old G60 range, unless some porting been done, I assume it’s a stage 4 charger.

Thanks for link I forgot about this one!
I can get a cheap rate on classic insurance on it, but still another car driven for pleasure and not daily we have enough for the kids.
Petrol is a pain £40.00 a tank and lasts for about four trips out of town.
