Getting 1st golf gti later today!
« on: 26 March 2008, 16:14 »
A few months ago I was looking to buy a golf gti, and ended up with a merc, well, I have since sold that and today I am going to pick up my new car, a 1990 3dr 1.8 8v Golf gti!
(providing it's as good as it sounds!)

Yay, will post pics soon! :laugh:

might be a different car then, unless the owner in between you and the guy who i saw it with fitted power steering.

does it have a little bit of surfact rust near one of the rear arches?
