          The car is ok.

          Its a 1.6l 4 speed with no emission gear. 330,000kms. 4door.
          It was owned by a student and looks like they took care of it, regular service acording to the stickers on the window.
          The interior has been re-done in grey carpet, the boot floor and walls, parcel shelf, door cards, dash but under the dash is the worst ive ever seen. No holes in the seats but the patern on them looks like the carpet we had in high school, very ugly.

          I didnt have a good look at the tail gate but it does look to be rust free, i had to brake the lock so i could open it though. The car was resprayed some time ago but the paint has faded badly and the rust in the A pillar has blistered. Window seasl are shocking but the metal chrome is good on the side windows

          When i got there it was missing the front bumper and grill, looks like some one took that stuff and couldnt get past the mk1 advanced security to open to tail gate and take the rear bumper so they took the rear end caps and damaged the rubber that goes in the middle. Everything else is there including the spare tyre. Engine looks complete as was the interior. It has NEW school roof racks aswell.

          Ive taken the rear bumper, mirrors and the plastic around the door pull. I also found a complete Haynes Manual. I pulled the clocks out as the surround look almost new but i didnt take it because the red film for the handbrake light crumbled away. The clocks are speedo and time, no tacho. I also wanted to take the rear lights but decided not to because one was glued and ive got enough rear lights as is. They are original hella and no noticable cracks. Its got a cool steering wheel but the leather on it is stuffed.

          Thats about all i can think of. Hope it helps.

            sounds like it has a diesel cluster, maybe it was a GLD orig. might have the under bonnet noise surpressant stuff, if anyone wants some of that.

              Correct it did have the under bonnet noise surpressant, still intact and looking good.
