Hi Guys & Gals

[MAFFA]

Crikey i've started a war!!

Funny you should mention a MkI though as I was looking at a couple not too far away:

The silver one is only 6 miles away & it does look nice....but then again it is pretty pricey for a 25yr old car!

I get what your saying and yes I am a bit of a poser & whatever I buy will never remain standard but i'm that bit older now (well 31) & initially i'm gonna be carting my 1 1/2yr old around in it.

I'm keeping an open mind until i've driven a few. Another thing is that I have my number plate M6FFA floating around somewhere as this is my username on Scoobynet & BM3W. If i'm gonna use that then it has to be a MkIII but then again it could go on the other car or even the BMW Mini Cooper that's at home so not too big a problem.

Just trying to cover everything & do what's right for me. Thing is i've not looked at any yet so getting a bit ahead of myself 

Oh & if you think the engine bay on that Scoob is nice you wanna see the other one I had that was even more posey & even quicker. 0-60 took 3.8 seconds & a 12 second 1/4

Not a chance of that. I've never driven one myself but all the reviews speak for themselves when it comes to raw fun out of a Golf

Honestly if I could find a mint one i'd love it

Thought you might like to see this (even though it's a VW forum  ). Green Scoob on the rolling road. Never heard another one quite so loud! Had to keep changing the exhaust for the track & even then it only just made it!

Hope it works

Right back to looking for cars

Nah, no war started, Dinx always likes to get the last word in.

You say that £2250 is a lot for a 25 year old car, but that's not actually a bad price. You'll find that well sorted mk1s go for a fair bit of money as do mk2s, mk3 can be picked up cheaper than the others. If you're looking at mk1s too then this is a brilliant site and has a good for sale section as they will only allow mk1 stuff to be advertised on there. http://www.vwgolfmk1.org.uk/

What about a MkIII VR6?

[gibby]

Never driven one personally, but an old user on here had one for a track day and he loved it. The suspension needs sorting though as they are supposed to be pants as standard. I still say mk1 or mk2 for the track, mk3s too lardy for me.

I'll keep looking so
