  • WA Mk1 or Mk2 GTI's For Sale

    Why the hell aren't there ANY Mk1 or Mk2 GTIs for sale in WA?!?!!?!?
    Am getting sooo frustrated!!
    The closest ones i can find are in Adelaide...
    There's one or 2 on carsales that are cheap and are not being snapped up FFS!!

    Of course they are over east in Vic or NSW

    Been trying gumtree, trading post and the Quokka...nothing

    Anyone out there in Perth with an old GTI they don't want??

    Good luck mate, won't be easy. Having said that, be patient, keep looking and something will pop up (As ultra rare as they are, I just picked up a 3 door Mk2 valver recently).

    Good on ya for being keen on getting into the classics

              Shipping cars interstate is actually quite easy and not stupidly expensive, might be something worth looking into. Even better, jump on a plane and drive a car back, nice way to test it out and see the scenery

                Have done both and agree, it is good fun! (especially driving a long distance in a nice classic car you have never driven before and which is now yours!)

                  nullabor is long a long enough drive for everything on the car to go wrong so should be all sorted by the time you reach perth!

                      Any pics??
                      Is it unregistered because it needs work?

                        South african import has been licensed before. Just had mk3 2L 16v slotted in and needs the laste 10% of wiring done. Unlincesed because it's a work in progress for the last 3 years. 1 day of wiring and it would have no problems passing the pits
